Damn you man, you had to quote before I could edit.

Evidently she doesn't even need to show up to beat heel4life. Jesus...

She's living rent free in his head. Rent free.

Should the Angel Reese non-discussion be on this original thread or the new one. Or maybe this is so important we need two threads about the exact same thing.

One should do.

She’s 19/59 from five feet in.
She’s made 20 FGs and had her shot blocked 21 times.
She’s not been good.

Kind of like her game. Just another missed layup.

Most WNBA post players are not going to shoot post shots at high percentages compared to NBA post players. Why? Almost none can dunk on a clean break-away. None can dunk a rebound aside from a RARE “dunk” - you know….a dunk in which the dunker barely gets the ball over the rim. A 1970’s high school dunk.

Not a single WNBA player can get a rebound and go back up and DUNK on the opposing team (see Dominique, James Worthy, Charles Barkley, Shawn Kemp, Hakeem, Rodman, Kareem, Ralph, the GOAT).

In the WNBA, post players are ground-bound players often dealing with tall or taller players for the first time in their careers.

Reese is only 6’3”. She’s going to have to develop an offensive post game.

Will she? We’ll see.

if you had outsiders perspective looking at her numbers you’d think if she just practices lay ups and bunnies she’d average 30 and 12 no problem. But half of her rebounds come from her own misses. It’s wild as professional basketball player. Lisa Leslie said it as it is.

She doesn’t need to dunk though just make open layups with dominant hand and bunnies and she’d average 20 pts a game easily.

My point is that 6’3” WNBA players rarely have post bunnies. They get the rebound and other 6’3” to 6’5” to 6’6” BURLY women are challenging their shot.

Lisa Leslie, 6’5”, shot 47% overall FG%. She shot 48.3% from 2. She’s in the Hall of Fame. She played in the pre-Mikan era.

We’re still in the George Mikan era for Women’s Hoops.

Angel Reese needs to develop an offensive game. Will she? She’s a 73% FT shooter in her WNBA career. So, she’s a good, not great, not bad shooter.

I say she develops a WNBA offensive post game in 2-3 years. Remember, she’s playing against Mikan Era NBA bigs…….maybe pre-Mikan.

That makes sense and good points. Just watching her play she seems super athletic till she goes up with the ball. If she doesn’t develop her game it’s her own fault.
