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.

Turner's elevated level of play the last third of the season by SorinBasement

is the main reason this team has gone from very good/National Championship contender to elite/National Championship favorite.

Bri has always been a defensive difference-maker, but what she's been doing lately on the offensive end has made us unstoppable. Remember all of the turnovers we used to have as a result of low percentage lob passes forced down low? It's been about ten games since those complaints have been posted here because it rarely happens anymore. It's not happening because Bri has made herself an active part of the halfcourt offense, moving the ball and creating her own shots 8-12 feet away from the basket.

There's been a lot of praise for Jackie on this board, and rightfully so, but Bri's offensive adjustments have a lot to do with Jackie's recent success. Jackie now has room to drive and create, room which wasn't there when Bri was spending too much time down low waiting for lob passes.

Kudos to Bri, Muffet, Carol Owens, and whoever else figured this out. It may win us another title.
