It was frustrating to see Belibi revert to her last season habit of missing shots right under the basket. She seemed to be in too big a hurry on her release. I guess that can be chalked up to facing better defenders than she's faced thus far this season. I think if she just trusts her footwork and takes just bit more time to adjust her shots, she will do much better than 2-7.
On the other hand, it was nice to see Brink finishing shots in the paint in traffic. She was 5-5. She looks fragile with her willowy frame, but she is fearless. She fights for position under the basket against women who outweigh her significantly. I thought that at least two of the fouls called on her were bogus, but she'll learn how to avoid picking up fouls with experience. Remember when Lexie was a frosh she often got into foul trouble. Last night Lexie played 34 minutes, scored 16 points, and had 0 fouls.
What makes this team so formidable is depth. We took down a Pac-12 team 80-20 with Jones going 4-11. We have so many weapons that when one is misfiring another one steps up.
