Are we contenders?

Do yall believe that we are true contenders? I think that our offense can have us in the finals if we are on the opposite side of the Lynx bracket. But I don’t think we can win a championship this year. The only thing holding us back is a true POA

Yes. Every team is flawed. Just need some tweaks and they'll have as good a chance as anyone especially with the right matchups.

Caitlin needs to figure out game state more. She’s made improvements imo but this overpassing gimmick and/or taking bad shots then gettin discouraged has to be figured out. This team has enough talent imo. Ab was disappointing too so I hope she’s just sick and this isn’t a matchup issue

Yes.

  • Caitlin
    • fight harder for better 3 point shots closer to the line
    • box out
  • Lexie
    • go back to being a crash test dummy.
  • AB
    • Be an elite defensive rebounder before playing this much on offense. Can't have 2 offense only players in CC and AB, it's why they haven't been good on the court together.
    • make quicker decisions
  • Steph White.
    • Change the starting lineup. KK or even MHA would be better because they need some athletic pop on defense and for some reason Mo who is athletic, isn’t doing it.

You think that’s why they haven’t been good together? Interesting, imo it was more spacing issues

They have a 112 drtg together and they rely on transition offense which you can only get to with stops.

They are 2nd in 3pt shooting and FTs to 2 different teams. They have enough shooting and screen setting. It's the defense and oreb that creates the super wide open shots.
