In response to bradley
It was a fast paced and physical game. The US was down 8 in the 3rd quarter, but did well to take control.
Alarie definitely improved in the second half. It seemed that they played her more at center late in the game, but she didn't seem to physically be able to handle Argentina at that position. When she came away from the post on defense, she did much better - including a couple of really nice steals and breakaway layups.
I agree that she will have to be more of a 4 or possibly a 3 when she goes pro. Watching the WNBA, it seems that she will need to have an improved three point game.
3 point shooting
2016-2017 39-103 .379
2017-2018 22-67 .328
2018-2019 13-44 .295
It will be interesting to see how the new coach can help her get that part of her game back in her senior year.
