Like most I've seen the highlights of her. She has a quick release (most of the time) and does seem to know how to get to her spots. She's fearless and that helps. But she is no sort of athlete out there and in the rare instances I've seen clips of people playing defense on her, they're just toying with her. Anybody remember watching Shawn Bradley back in the 90s? Guy was just big and gangly and laughably terrible because he had no athleticism at all. She's an outside shooting version of Shawn Bradley. I mean it can't be quite as simple as I've let on - nobody scores 4,000 points or whatever she's scored by being a complete duffer. She's dealt with good defenses in the past. But it looks like anytime you have someone that's quick, they expose her a little bit. And when you combine that with a team that has the physicality and speed to get to her spots before her and just body her off them, she doesn't really have a Plan B that I can see. |

Again, even if you think it's not a big deal because it's just sports, it's absolutely a big deal that people like this coach are scared to give a common sense answer to a stupid question. When something that is obviously right is THIS controversial, you have issues that go well beyond sports. It's a sign of cultural decay. |

I'm gonna say you weren't terribly vested in the direction of the thread here. And again, you make it your mission in life to wail that threads should be sent to DC, moreso than any Mod I've ever seen. |

Good catch. That dude's entire purpose here is to white knight for shitty people and defend terrible ideas under the guise of caring about the sanctity of threads and forum rules. |

Men are just so much faster, stronger, and more athletic that I don't know why people think we should even have this conversation. She'd get totally wrecked in the NBA. I'd be surprised if she were able to score more than a couple of points at most and most of the time she'd be shut out. |

You just have some assholes that think the rules that apply to everyone do not apply to the assholes who make everything political. |
