Re Lindy, when she joined the starting lineup last year a couple of weeks into the season, Tara said something like, she's been here for a while and she understands what we're trying to do. I suspect that's why she continues to get so many minutes. And we know she can shoot threes, even though that hasn't been apparent lately. One of these days her stroke will return, and our offense will have a new dimension.

Agreed.  Last year Lindy had an outstanding season, hitting .386 from three point range while playing 19 minutes a game.  This year she is hitting .247 while playing 24 minutes.  Sooner or later she will return to form.  I wonder if there is anything the coaches can do to help it be sooner.  How do you practice something that tends to be so streaky?  I get the feeling that this is more about sports psychology than mechanics.
