I tend to agree with Ooops but I would limit it to the last two games. I guess Kelly fell asleep thinking other teams would just remain complacent and let Lauren cut through their D all the time. Other coaches however adjusted and Kelly had no answer, no alternative... I don't agree that this is the same team from two years ago, although a similar game plan. We should not forget other teams have also evolved and developed, thus all the kudos to Queensland North, they played really well in the finals although I thought Vic Country fell desperately short in the last 5 sec hitting the rim twice.
Something similar happened to Andrew (NSW). As long as other teams played a man D NSW Metro was doing all right regardless how well Bolden was contained. Tassies did a really good job on him but failed to limit outside shots and the penetration. Vic Metro on the other hand switched from a man D to a full court press collapsing to a zone a half way through the second quarter, taking away time and space, and it was reflected on the scoreboard. They went from -13 to +8. On a number of occasions NSW had only 10 seconds to execute their plays and most of the time violated the shotclock, the shots were rushed and almost every time contested. Vic Metro did a good job blocking out Bolden and while he is an outstanding player, he could not do much without the support from others. For over twenty minutes Andrew had no solution for this D and even Mark could not help him with his advice :) as someone already mentioned above.
Anyway, I really enjoyed watching all the games, especially last 4 and it was a real shame that Tassies did not meet Vic Metro in the GF. Personally don't think Vics would be so lucky this time.
What really caught my attention and made me really proud to be one of the spectators was the sportsmanship and friendship among the players regardless the scores.
