I can't understand for the life of me why Diamond doesn't drive to the goal EVERYTIME she gets the ball...if she can't get to the rim, just stop and pop!

Alexa, Jordan, Diamond, Nia and Mercedes played great together! A much more fluid and determined line up. I was scared that Holly would mess up by subbing.
Nia and Mercedes in together was a SHOCK! A good shock though. Jordan appeared to play under control with that line up. Defense was great all around, also. Loved Alexa's drive to score and Nia scoring off an inbounds pass from Jordan. Diamond did her thing as our go-to-player.
I hope to see more of that line up because they played great. But did Holly notice that greatness? That's the question because I don't trust her. All her subbing in the 1st qtr was dumb because it messed up the flow of the game.
What is the point of running an outside the 3-point line weave against a team playing a zone defense? It is stupid--or, at the least, not effective, and how could it be as you are not accomplishing anything or putting any pressure on the defense.
The problem is (or atleast one of the problems) our players continue to refuse to shoot open shots, we are trying too hard to get the ball inside that we can't play a decent game. Reynolds, Middleton & Nared have had so many open shots yet will not shoot them, you can not win like that, let the players play and stop micromanaging them
