…I'm a little less sanguine about Brink shooting the three ball than some of you…

I’m not sanguine about it at all
Cam jacking up the missed threes was our worst offensive possessions of the game
They seemed often early in our set, the rest of the team seemed to mostly stand around and watch her, I’m not sure we ever got an O Board on any of them
There’s so much more Cam can and should do if she gets the pass outside the arc
She almost always has another big on her that she is quick enough to start a drive on
She can then complete the drive, feed inside to Iriafen et al if open, dish back out beyond arc to wide open Lepolo or other, if she’s dragged the D to sag into the paint
The worst choice of all is throw up a lazy 3 that if is not going in will almost surely be rebounded by other team

Agree it's not a good outcome if they don't go in, but I'm betting they will. I'd even go so far as to say we have to have them if we are going to make a natty run. We've already seen how our inside game can be taken away from us. We get too predictable and it's going to happen again. 
Sure, Cam can get 20-25 with her inside game and FT's, but it takes away from what Kiki can do. Cam playing some (not all, just some) on the perimeter is another threat that they have to guard and it opens things up for Kiki. Cam and Kiki together getting 40+ is our ticket. I don't think that happens against top teams with both of them in the lane all game.
