Wish I had recorded that game so I could go back and look at each of our TO's. Some observations from the data:
1. At one point we were outscored on points off TO's 25-4. Ended with 27-9. Remarkable that we could overcome that to win the game.
2, Subtracting out Marta's six TO's, 18 of the remaining 23 came from our backcourt. We have very good players, but not the most athletic against some teams. Need to do less dribbling and set more screens to avoid players being left on an island by themselves, both in bringing the ball up and in the half-court.
3. Marta needs to figure out the best role for her particular talents. There is plenty of tape to watch of her successes and of where things don't work as well.
But congratulations to the team on everything thal they did do well to win this game.
