Hope the ladies can continue to pay attention at the defensive end and Satou continues to crash the boards. When they play defense they are tough to beat! Go DUCKS!!!Merganzer wrote:Go Ducks, ASU is #16 in Coaches Poll.
They were better than I thought. The right kind of scrappy that can get you alot of close losses to top teams...shoparound wrote:Wow CLOSE GAME. 1 Pt game when it was 2 or 3 mins left
Taylor Chavez needs be aggressive and take charge when she comes it. She plays unselfish and doesnt detract from anyone, but she looks like a wicked talented scorer when she wants to be...gogreen55 wrote:Yeah, ASU is definitely a solid team. Sabally played hard (which is the most important thing long term), but couldn't get much to actually go in the hoop (2-10 from the floor). Boley didn't have a very good game. It would be nice if we had more of an offensive spark off the bench, like ASU had. The Ducks couldn't ever really clamp down on them defensively to turn it into a more comfortable win, but they did enough.
To me, it looks like she defers way too often to the older players, especially Ionescu, Boley, and Cazorla.bigsugarduck wrote:Taylor Chavez needs be aggressive and take charge when she comes it.

She’s a 17-18 year old freshman stepping onto a elite 8 team. I think deferring to the returning players is smart and necessary, unless you are star quality like Ionescu. Chavez shows glimpses of being a pretty solid player, but fitting in and working her way into a more prominent role as the season goes on was the way to go in her case.greenyellow wrote:To me, it looks like she defers way too often to the older players, especially Ionescu, Boley, and Cazorla.bigsugarduck wrote:Taylor Chavez needs be aggressive and take charge when she comes it.
