Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 4384246, member: 6620"] Funny you should bring that up. I play in an open court gathering on Sunday mornings (all ages) and the players I have the hardest time against are young(er) players who can take the step-back three. (Maybe us old guys just aren't used to defending that move -- neither are my knees ;)). However, I also go against a 6'5" guard who takes a long time to assess his shot and keeps it around his face. He, paradoxically, is easier to guard. That thought hit me while watching Bonner. The (relatively) slow set-up to her shot and the whole mechanism is right there in front of you, like the 6'5" guard. As such, she's got to work hard on her shot to get it off. The Suns might be better working Williams or Heidelmann (sp) off a weakside screen for a catch-and-shoot. [/QUOTE]
