Message: [QUOTE="BobbyJ, post: 4254983, member: 4250"] I've seen some of this too. Even when she gets to 100% mentally and trusts her knee completely, she now has to make the adjustment to the adjustments coaches are making to her if you follow me. Her vision and skill level is superior to whoever she's matched up with but opposing coaches are seeing one way to neutralize it some. If you give her room to work she'll pick you clean. And that's what she's seen throughout her HS and one year college career. People played off her to avoid getting beat but IMO her one offensive flaw is the same as most of this current UConn team and that is playing through contact. Being in her face bothers her and makes her hesitate just enough to throw her out of rhythm and miss some things, pass options or shots. She's never had to but I believe she needs to tighten up her handle, get stronger in the upper body, and protect the ball better. Coaches are realizing that their best chance is not to back off her to keep from getting blown by but to get up into her and make her speed up. She's a special talent and I hope she can make this change. [/QUOTE]
