Yeah. It must be nice to never physically develop to the point where you've had the same set shot/side-cocked launch since you were a kid. I was a better three-point shooter when I was 10-13 years old and it's not even close. Used to make 60+ out of 100 out on the driveway. There was something about that distance that was just perfect for stepping into/squaring up for a shot. My jumper was never quite as good.

That chick could make it from anywhere on the court if she tried. I saw her make shot from about 3 feet in front of half court in a game once.

The cyborg revolution is now. Even with her shooting from a single spot that's still mind blowing consistency

If she moves around she maybe only gets 70 shots off.

How many pro basketball players can do that?


Even a Reggie Miller would miss a couple I bet.



The hard part is not get flustered if you miss one. After she missed the first one she didn't miss again until the very last few.

Yaaay! 132! Now she can go eat some beav.

Obviously, you do not know who Laurie Koehn is do you?

She made it look so easy that I was convinced the other gals job was harder. Looking both at the basket to shag and making good passes.

I hear the debate is coming back to lose the smaller ball. Good. Nobody wanted it in the first place except for the basketball manufacturers who wanted to sell twice as many balls to every school. Leagues were voting it down like crazy, but the crappy short lived womens pro league at the time and the NCAA and the Olympic committee forced it on everyone over a two or three year stretch.

I was in high school at the time it happened, 1984 was the debut, and I think we switched in 1986, so I played all my middle school games and most high school games with the full size ball. And even after the switch in games, we were practicing with the full size ones still (some coaches perceived advantage to that.) It never proved true, my shooting was best when my fundamentals were sharp with either ball, and if they slipped, the small ball didn't make it magically easier.

I think they thought it would make ball handling better too, but seriously, coaches at the time never bothered to teach girls ball handling at all, especially when, like me, they were 5'11 in seventh grade. It was all about passing and shooting. Just overall a shittier game.

I hope they switch back because girls play way better games now and I hate to see it trivialized by doubts over a stupid one inch ball difference. Not that we couldn't have played that game, we just weren't coached for all the fundamental skills.
