I was curious as to who were the top scorers during our recently completed exhibition season.If you wanted to start the top five and hope to bury a team before they realized what happened,you'd put (1) Megan Waytashek 18.5 ppg,Mariah Clarin 19 ppg (1 game},Kerry Young (2) 16.5 ppg ,Clarissa Ober (3) 13.5 ppg,all the others were single didgits,with the highest being Megan Stewart (4) with 8.5 ppg.
That's a whole lot of scoring potential to throw at a team.
Wouldn't really have a true point guard though,and yea,Boevers back! Love the all business look of determination,concentration on her face,except the time she made the backwards flying through the air lay up against IPFW.She had to bust out in a huge smile after that circus shot. You'd have three post players playing without the good entry passing that allowed for their points in the first place,although both Waytashek and Young are excellent passers.
Probably wouldn't work,but it'd be intriguing to watch and see what happens,if you had a game you could afford that luxury.You might want a little more threat outside,but you sure could pound it inside with that line up,but,unfortunately,thats what they'd probably do,just clog the middle.You could post two up(high,low)set some screens and have one flow through for a quick pass.I think a lineup that spreads the floor is best,but we haven't got our three point shooting on track yet...it did go up from a dismal 23.5 % to 31.6%,would like to see it around36- 38% or > to really force them out and spread the floor ,it's comming along.Alot of these points are transition points,which will be harder to get with improved competition.
Every player has so much potential on this team it's really a shame any of them have to sit and wait their turn on the floor, but they're all un-selfish and willing to do that,and that's why in my opinion we've won five straight conference tournaments and trips to the NCAA tournament.It doesn't matter who scores,its just fun to watch this team,they play so well together and share the ball.They are all capable scorers,makes this team hard to beat.So,...step on the gas...let's see how fast this jalopy can go!!!
Have to mention the coaching staff,AJ's leadership and guidance,love watching coach Falco and Nord,their energy ,always cheering on the team along the sideline,I get a kick out of watching their feistiness on the game replays.
It's not going to be easy getting points in the paint against taller ,athletic line ups ,like 6'4" Ogwumike (Forward) of Stanford,but having three taller players in the line up ,one might sneak in for an open shot....Stewart can hit three's...that helps,so can Ober.Mariah's just quick and agile and gets her shot off.Just a side mention...Ogwumike scored 805 points last season...wow...how to stop that?She'll be a top pick,if not #1 in WNBA.Enough of borish rant.
