I think the lack of a post presence on both ends of the court is what has killed us lately.
I am not saying that NW is not a good shot blocker I am just saying that I think JA is a better shot blocker. NW gets a lot of her blocks on smaller people coming in the lane. JA will block other teams post player as well as smalls, she has the knack of timing or longer arms are whatever it is that some players pocess.
