I noticed a nice diversity in scoring for a few of the players:

Nunu

• 5 layups (2 driving)
  
• 1 jumper
  
• 8 free throws sunk (2 on a foul she drew on a fast break after a turnover)
  

Iriafen

• 6 layups (2 driving, 3 second chance)
  
• 3 jumpers
  
• 3 free throws sunk
  

Demetre

• 2 jumpers
  
• 1 layup
  
• 1 three
  
• 2 free throws sunk
  

Jump (though wish she'd scored more)

• 1 layup (driving)
  
• 2 jumpers
  
• 1 three
  

And I like that Ogden hit a fast break layup, a jumper and a three.  3-3 and all no doubters.  Hopefully fouls won't disrupt her again next game and she'll get more scoring opportunities.

So far the offense has been very diverse and exciting.  Jump's own development into a player who effectively shoots midrange jumpers and teardrops is an illustration of the improvement.  But we have not played against any kind of challenge yet, so it is too soon to say whether the changes we have seen thus far are really substantial and will be sustained against a good defense. 

Can't stress enough how experienced Indiana is.  We have Brink and Jump at that level.  Hopefully the home court advantage helps our youngsters feel more comfortable matching up against a bigger, older team.  Lepolo is going to look undersized against the five Indiana guards over 6', but maybe she can be quicker, or maybe she can stay on 5'10" Scalia with only a 3" deficit.  Bosgana and Jump are going to get a lot of work guarding three point sharpshooters of similar size.  At least Indiana does not seem to have those short, quick, speedy Rori Harmon/ Aari McDonald / Jaylyn Sherrod  type guards that have given us so much trouble in the past.
