Message: [QUOTE="Zarathustra, post: 4395623, member: 11285"] Perhaps Coach Reeves wanted a taller (practice) player , S. Austin, to provide the some "lenght" needed to help prepare the USA's regulars for the lean and taller Chinese??. Boston , I believe, will be on the next team! I continue to obsess about that Chinese player: Meng Li. I looked up the FIBA stats on her. Losing her was the equivalent of the USA losing either A'ja WIlson or Kelsey Plum. I believe that Meng Li was rated # 4 behind A'ja and just ahead of Kelsey on the tournament overall stat sheet . Check the FIBA stats and " individuals" for more details.. Of course stats don't tell the whole story, but she was one of their two 3 point threats. China will be back! [/QUOTE]
