And thanks for the transcript OC!
This was I think the most revealing question and answer. See my italics. I wonder if they are using the triangle--spacing the floor, getting it inside to Brink, if she is doubled kicking it back out. And interesting that Tara is more worried about defense right now. She specifically mentions Iriafen hitting the high post shot, which makes me think she has improved her versatility and there will be some high-low action.

Jump looks strong! Oh my goodness. She spent the off season in the weight room and my does she look solid. She mentioned Iriafen as most improved.

Quote:Q.Tara, where are you going to get your outside of Cam and Hannah as reliable scorers for you? Where else is there going to be offense coming from?
TARA ANN VANDERVEER: Well, I don't think we've ever recruited a player, and there's certainly not anyone on our team right now who doesn't think they are a great offensive player. Kiki, hitting the high post shot, she's shooting threes, driving it, attacking the basket. Talana, knocking down shots. She is probably is more of a pass first point guard, but she is not shy. Elena has never met a shot she doesn't like. Pass is a four letter word for her. We have player on top of player that are really, really skilled, and but we've kind of gone back to running some of our older offenses, and the ball is moving. We don't have any sticky hands. And it's really fun to watch the ball movement, the spacing and the coachability of people to say, hey, we're going to get the ball inside to Cam. She's doubled. She's kicking it out. She is passing really well. So I think we have a lot of offense. I'm worried more about the defense.
