Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 2348900, member: 1220"] It wasn't as bad on her part as it looked. She really didn't have any open options. I don't know what they were thinking to run her to the outside like that. I don't think the coach had enough time to dictate to every player what they were supposed to do. The Lynx played it perfectly. They cut off her passing lanes and had her trapped with 5 defenders between her and the basket. The other players just stayed stationary much like they did when Beard was trying to inbound the ball on that 5 second turnover. The only option she had was Beard in the corner but her man was also closing in so she wouldn't have an uncontested shot. I think the idea was to go to Parker who was open, but the second defender on Gray was right between her and Parker. It just seemed like the team as a whole was really gased and showed a real lack of motion during the last couple of plays. [/QUOTE]
