This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

That was a fear of mine entering this season: a return to by btd
that offense versus the one we ran last year without her. I don't think we were quite as much what you imply, but more than I prefer. The largest factors in my mind were:
1) We missed 15-20 2' shots
2) We get zero position for rebounds way too often. We just made no attempt at all to pay attention to where they are standing
3) We missed a lot of FT
4) We did nothing at all to get Marina into the game -- and her 3 pt shots
5) In general, we were in the wrong defense against them the entire game. We may not have a right defense for them -- but I saw minimal attempt by MM to find a solution.
