Missy has actually been fine all season in the games I've seen. It's like she had a lobotomy that has caused her to swallow her ticky tack whistle. Even her video reviews have been, IMHO, legit. (Like the one on Pao Pao where, without a video review, it was very hard to tell what was happening away from the ball.)
I like Jones at the 4 and it's too bad we have so much post talent and no room for them all. For all folks criticize our guards, Lepolo and Emma-Nnopu are shooting treys above .400 in conference play, so they clearly just need to confidence and encouragement to keep going after them, as Tara has been saying. And of course it'd be awesome if we had three A-A guards, but we don't, so we just got to work with what we have. (And hopefully Nivar can develop her shooting touch and stay out of foul trouble, because she has great IQ and I love her high energy, opportunistic style of play.)
Have faith in Tara. And let's everyone chill out. We've lost one game to a team that isn't the reigning national champion, and right now we're doing it with a starting lineup that has only two top 25 recruits.
