Does anybody else feel that Gabbi plays better when it's clear that there is an expectation on her to score the basketball? I know she's the point guard, and she's looking to get others involved, but I really feel like we need her outside shooting and her scoring abilities. It seems to me like when she gets that "mad" look and starts looking for her own shot, all of the sudden, it clicks with her. Sometimes, I feel like screaming at the TV - "Shoot the basketball, Gabbi!!!!" Then she did yesterday and made two outside shots right in a row.

And the pull-up jumper? Where has that been? Seems to me like she started making pull up jump shots at the end of last year. It seems like I have seen very little of that this year.
 
I think she's playing like a soph who has digressed because she's trying to figure out how to be better. Very inconsistent, probably pressing too much hen backing off too much. I think she'd play better if she just relaxed. She doesn't have to be a star to be effective. She needs to be a leader, it should be her team.
 
I thought that Vegas came back less than she had gone. I think Gabbi has been set back, temporarily. I don't know if it is fatigue, lack of concentration, or learning some things that don't fit with our system. She is much sloppier than she was in the last half of last year.
 
Right now, I really like having Gabbi and T'ona on the floor together
