I completely DISAGREE with that comment now. I specifically watch Q during her time on the court on Wednesday (season ticket holder so not beholden to the camera) and she has improved by leaps and bounds from where she was, she has also taken Geno's comments about getting into the flow of the game before hoisting 3 point shots. She's now taking mid-range jumpers and getting to the rim (now if she only would make those put backs but I digress).Using the back board is a quick fix and a no brainer. It surprises me that KK still tries to force her way through people to get to the basket. She did kick it out a few times the other night.
i noticed that Ash takes some time to square herself and get her shot set. her mechanics are slow and that might be why she’s in a slump. Against slower, less skilled players she can get her shot off but against quicker athletes she is struggling. Her form is good, just slow. She also tried to force things the other night.
Q seems lost on defense. Lost or confused.
Add in the fact that when she is removed from the game Geno now gives her a low five and no one from the coaching staff has words with her about her mistakes. If Geno is unhappy, he usually ignores the player when they come off the court.
Ice, on the other hand, seems not to have applied the critique thrown her way and continues to have her first shots be 18 foot jumpers with a flat trajectory and no backspin. I keep my fingers cross and hope for the best but I fear the worst.....
