Message: [QUOTE="inthisopinion, post: 3107381, member: 8728"] KLS, of course, played well in both those semi final games. She just took only 22 shots in 90 minutes. That is mainly due to (1) being a team first player and (2) her teammates ignoring her when she cuts and posts up (has been going on for her entire career). You can't get blood out of a rock, especially when you can't even have the rock in the first place. What she showed and proved again in this brilliant performance is that she is the most versatile player in the country and that she is the most important player in relation to the success of her team. The dismissing of her great soon to be 3-time All-American career by the talking heads and virtually everyone is ridiculous. Lawson was referring to her as if she was some one dimensional role player. While as a former good player Lawson may inject some worthwhile insight she still has shown a lack of back round knowledge of at least one of the current great players. KLS was not referred to being a 2-time AA even once during the telecast. To continually put Durr and Collier on a level higher than KLS was a lack of presenting the facts to the audience. Even this season she made the Naismith semi final ten list just like Collier and Durr. All this under-appreciation despite her all-around numbers being superior to Durr's. Just look them up. Finally, at the end, her great FT shooting which has been ignored all season was finally mentioned. [/QUOTE]
