Thanks for your great post. Apologies about starting a new thread, it was late last night when I got back (I bicycle) and I must have been too bleary eyed to see a game thread had started.  Joslyn does remain a puzzlement to me. If you remember in the cal loss she had that wonderful three point basket just after the expiration of the shot clock. And tonight she had 3 of them when nothing was on the line. She had the most radiant smile I think I've seen on her.
I wonder if she would benefit by some work with a sports psychologist. She obviously has great shooting mechanics and all the physical ability necessary to be a great long range shooter. But she needs some advice about how to do it when the game is close and it really matters. It is almost as if she cares so much about her team, and is so unselfish, that she won't pull the trigger and risk a miss unless she knows she can't do any harm. And if she knows she can't hurt the team by missing, she makes it.

So we won by 26 points, but from your stats I take it that during the 37 minutes that Chiney was in we netted only 17? That we netted 9 points in the 3 minutes she was out? Was that simply Amber's best run of the day?
