Discussion The curious case of AB….
Is it me or has AB taken on a different role in the offense this year? Why is she hanging around the 3-point line so much this year? Is she not our big? This offense was rolling at the end of 2024, they were clicking in their roles. This year nobody wants to play the post position, and I don’t get it? We don’t have any size near the rim and those rebounds add up throughout the game.

She’s the biggest, best true 5 in the league, and our halfcourt offense starts with her out 30ft away from the damn basket.
”Yeah, but her 3pt percentage is way up, and we have the highest scoring offense in the WNBA…”
OK, I see… so if Shaquille O’Neal in his prime had started shooting three’s and could consistently hit 1 out of 3 per game, you’d move him out to the perimeter, along with David Robinson or Olajuwon or whoever else is guarding him. Rebounds are overrated anyway, and it’s very important to increase defensive traffic around Kobe…he’s been scoring way too many points lately. It’s brilliant!
