Message: [QUOTE="tomcat, post: 3414066, member: 961"] I guess I'll throw this puzzling observation in here, while people are puzzled by what they're seeing during games: Is anyone else puzzled by the lack of velocity on some of Dangerfield's passes. While bringing the ball up the court, she makes a lot of flip and loop passes with very little oomph on them. Some get picked off and most make it to their intended destination, thought often not without some effort on the receiver's part. I am sure the coaches are talking to her about it, but it doesn't seem to be sinking in. If anything, IMHO, there seem to be more of these passes now than earlier in the season. I'm not talking about passes that don't reach their recipients because the recipients moved in the wrong direction. I'm talking about slow cross-court passes (which I had thought passers were not supposed to do, anyway) or diagonal passes that seem to take forever to get where they are going. And UConn will be more likely to pay the price when it plays consistently taller and longer teams as the year goes on. [/QUOTE]
