re: WBB: LSU 72 South Carolina 79 Final SEC Tournament Championship

She has missed the last few games but she's not the problem, albeit a better performance would definitely help.

HVL, I've said it all season, is a LIABILITY on defense and LSU can't hide her. Teams are attacking her on both ends of the floor. Her teammates have to help so much that it creates tons of open looks and puts the entire defense out of position. On the offensive end, she can't consistently get around her defender, resulting in long bounce passes to get the ball inside. It allows the defense to recover, as well as creates opportunities for the defenders to jump the passing lane.

LSU also hasn't learned how to "win" tight games. They play 1 on 1 too often, resulting in poor shot selection. Reese should've never attempted that 3-pointer unless the clock was winding down. That was a wasted possession and LSU has too many coming down the stretch of ball games. It's tournament time and this team still struggles with any kind of pressing defense and still haven't learned to inbound the ball. They have SOOOO many turnovers off simply inbounding the ball.
