No offense Marty, and Bob is way more polite than I am, but you just don't know what you're talking about. Our players jump - all of them. As do women in every other team I've seen. Literally the only player your statement applies to is Chantel Osahor of UW, and if anything, it was impressive that she could regularly chuck the ball from 5 feet behind the three point line and sink it. It worked impressively well for her. But everyone else jumps.

I didn't mean to be offensive and upon re-reading my comments it sounds too strong.  But, very often I see the players standing under the basket with their feet planted firmly on the hardwood with their arms stretched high waiting for a rebound to come down.  I think they could work on using their springs a little more to get more rebounds.  Also, I would like to see more jump shots from the elbow.  I think the Hull sisters do a better job than most at using their jumping ability, and it shows in their rebounding stats.
