If she's chunkier than Plum no chance in hell. Funny if Berg had just graduated she'd have had no chance in hell either. after that berg interview i'll believe anything about usa volleyball, but why do they still keep thompson she is horrible. i'm not sold on kreklow at all. I mentioned this before but since Karch snubbed the best players off the team, he has to keep some of the veterans (the ones who don't belong) on the team so it doesn't look like the complete coaching disaster it really is. Lucky for him women's vball sucks right now, unlike the men's game, so he can still win Rio with the B team.

I can't even watch the match after reading what Karch/Easy did. I didn't watch the entire match, but has anyone analyzed her passing form? This is certainly something that can be worked on and improved.

This is certainly something that can be worked on and improved. From the camera perspective/film of Easy, her form doesn't seem to be the issue. She goes through periods where she passes GREAT, but then will all of a sudden start shanking everywhere. I think it's more of a mental thing for her, which I don't think can be taught.

I wouldn't think that, it might have been the ball was moving around more in person, than it looked on the video, who knows. But i would think she could improve.

That video has a very misleading title. I was thinking it was going to be a long rally where she got a lot of digs, not just one pancake...

But i would think she could improve. watching it on the live stream it was awful. at one point she got hit in the face on serve receive. she got burned on a short ball. how can a 6'3" kid with legs that go on for days get beat on a ball that makes her move at most 4 steps?

umm exactly.. I thought we were going to see like 15 digs or something.. lol They only showed one, but she's had many more, both in this and other matches. She's kept lots of rallies going. Part of the reason she was on the last Olympic team and will probably be on the next is her defense and serving. My impression is that she's setting a faster offense than Kreklow, whose sets seem higher and slower by comparison.

2010-Wow "Player A" is amazing! 2011-Wow "Player B" is amazing, "Player A" sucks 2012-Wow "Player C" is amazing, "Player B" sucks, and "Player A" needs to TTYN
REPEAT
How is it possible that we cast aside so many greats so easily?

That's a natural consequence of having a limited final roster, and particularly a 12 person roster for the Olympics, which for most is the measure of greatness. But let's be honest, who on these recent rosters truly qualifies as "great" in any kind of historical context?

Because they obviously don't remain great compared to the competition.
