| Slocum and Corosdale totally on different pages. Attempted passes between the two of them = 3 TOs in a row. Ugly. On the other hand, OrSU's 3pt shooting has been spectacular.

Why even bother going inside when you are shooting 58 % from 3pt land.

At least Morris (Frosh big) got a few minutes. I think he should be putting her on the floor a bit more. She's at least a defensive presence and playing time will make her more comfortable over time. Grymek is pretty hopeless - even when she's 6" taller than her defender, she just looks to pass back out rather than shoot. And her shots, other than wide open layups, look pretty iffy even from 4 feet. She does have decent hands so can at least catch the ball. Their other 'bigs' are pretty hopeless.
...So opponents will have to defend the three, but should dominate inside with any decent bigs. It will be interesting to see how the season plays out.

Basketball is a game of match ups. I think you are underestimating the availability that the vast array of different post players that OS will have available as the season winds down. I believe the difference will be Aquino when she is added to the mix. She will bring an offensive aspect that is now missing. While Grymek might not match up well with some of the smaller posts, she would be perfect against posts like McCowen who are not that mobile and tend to overwhelm the opposition with their sheer size to dominate the offensive glass. I think the key is getting Aquino and perhaps Morris comfortable enough for the playoffs to provide that added versatility in respect to different match ups.
