Message: [QUOTE="jazz, post: 3834408, member: 10942"] [B]My cents on the SJ game (wing and big focus):[/B] EW – looks good going to the basket and then using her length to stop and pop from 8 ft. Shot was obviously off. Uses her length and savvy to disrupt passing lanes. Even if her shot is off, she helps in other ways as well. AE – looking good. Impressed with her movement on offense, taking it to the basket, getting the two or the foul and her work in the boards. She is a finisher. Makes herself big for the entry pass and on the pick and roll. This is a good step forward for her. Almost had a double double! Didn't have any 'bull in a china shop' moments... Liv – made a few from outside - I think she hit them all. I like her a lot better from just inside the 3 point line than just outside the line. One shot wasn’t so easy as the PB pass was too low. Hard for a big to catch a low pass and then shoot, but she got it done. Picked up some fouls protecting the rim on the drive – this is what I am most worried about is Liv picking up fouls when others allow dribble penetration. Can’t finish through contact. Tries to avoid it actually which throws her off balance like she did on the baseline drive. It is what it is. I am encouraged by her outside shot, which will help open the middle for post-ups by AE and AG and cutters as well. I wonder if top teams will just give her that outside shot and see if she is hitting them or not. AE or AG posting up against the second big with no help will be a great advantage. Maybe this is how we get the most out of Liv on the offensive end. Can she make the good pass into to the post when the passing lanes are smaller due to bigger post players? AG – nice offensive board to get the 3 from PB. Later involved in a steal. Plays only two minutes and still makes plays. MM – I continue to be impressed with how quickly she can move her feet. She isn’t always focused on defense and, as a result, can be late on her movement. But when she is locked in, she is really good. Has a knack for drawing the charge. Seems to enjoy that. Great work in the offensive glass but can she do this against top level teams with size? [/QUOTE]
