First, passing and more passing on the first 4 or 5 half court possessions with the ball going into Liv. When we settle for the early jumpers and we miss, we start slowly like today. Second, the zone press again and great switching when we drop back into the half court defense. Third, getting the ball to the trailer in the transition game,especially in the first quarter, so that player can drive. It’s another option.
For Ono, no elbows to start the dance with and keeping the arms extended on defense. I’m not going to use the “s” word again. For Meg, let the game come to you. For Anna, finish the drives. For CD, do the same as today. For CW, rebound and run. For Aubrey, protect the ball on your way back up on put backs.
For all of the above and everyone else, move quickly with a purpose all the time. Get into fourth and fifth gear immediately. Ever notice that we pass better when we run and move more- it’s because we get open. Once again, make the best pass available at the time and force nothing. We don’t have to anymore because we got our mojo back.
