Message: [QUOTE="YellwJcket999, post: 2319371, member: 7976"] There were many of us that made the case for Gabby being not just All-American but also highly considered for POY. Her impact was very impressive. My take is that if the POY is the best all around player in country there are few who are as well rounded as Gabby. There were many that flat out considered scoring to be the end all metric. I didn't post in the other thread concerning Gabby and the hope for another significant jump for next year. I am a Gabby fan. However, I don't think that she will have as big of a jump next season. My best guess/hope is that she maintains the level that she set last season. The reason being is that (AFAIK) Gabby doesn't work out with professional trainers in the off season as many of the elite of the elite. Her gains will be down to her own effort. I compare this to Napheesa's constant improvement with the help of trainers. As always, I hope Gabby proves me wrong. She is a unique talent and has the potential to be extremely special. I would love to see her get a little additional help to improve. As Bird has mentioned, once you get to the WNBA/Overseas competition there is little time to pause and work to improve your game.
