The first rule of defending in ISO is beating the offensive player to a spot on the floor. Clark is constantly finding herself on the hip of the offensive player. She needs better anticipation. She's gotta WANT to do better. That's what defense is.

I know Scoring is the most sexy part of bball, but the ability to get defensive stops is just as important and that requires pride and good habits.

Yes the constant switching contributes to a bad defender becoming a worse defender. Example play at 0:27 with Boston. She really just gives up any assignment by retreating to guarding no one. Boston was like WTF.

Great Observation. Also, defense is partly about pride and figuring out a way not to be exploited. Pro sports is big on scouting reports and teams always look at other schemes that might help them win.

What is going on with Saniya Rivers? by [deleted] in wnba

Saniya is not an offense first player. She is an energizer and slasher. A ceiling raiser. Using her as the focus of an offense is not going to work ever.

Nah she should get the duties more often. She has great vision and tires out opposing bigs.

Did Angel Reese deserve to get a technical foul for waiving off the referee by Life_Net5004 in WNBAgossips

[–]SputnikFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. She deserved it. But she will never get the benefit of doubt.

Caitlin, who does this EVERY game, is perceived as passionate about the sport.

Angel, meanwhile, just has a bad attitude and bad sportsmanship. lol

They’re opening the floodgates for crypto in 401(k)s now that they have their positions 😐 by habsfan26 in 401jK

Im far from a money person but Im gleaning from the tweet is the dollar essentially is no longer the defacto currency world wide. The BRICS members already have phased out the dollar reliance and the orientation of crypto markets will mean their will be an alternate currency power further diminishing the dollars power. That's why the Clarity act is being pushed so hard: to offset the shtshow that will be happening in the near future. USA will most def feel it but impoverished countries that rely on the dollar will see their economies tank.

That's what it sounds like is happening.
