One sequence where she was posted up and calling for ball, Lepolo tried passing to her but Lepolo is too short, threw ball right into her own defenders hands.
I fail to see why many posters here regard Lepolo as a good or better-than-good point guard. Based on what I've seen, her ball-control and passing skills are so-so. Her on-ball D has never impressed me, nor has her ability to break the press against a fairly intense defense or to take it to the hoop and finish or dish. Granted, TL can make open 3s at a quite decent percentage level. But, IMO, that's not good enough by itself to make someone a good or very good point guard. Perhaps i am overlooking some significant value-adding on-court characteristics that she possesses.
to my eye, she does throw beautiful length-of-the-court passes on the break.
