Message: [QUOTE="FanInNC, post: 5317658, member: 13050"] Completely fair points and a fair opinion. I guess I just look at Dallas as having too many guards/wings and not enough firepower at the 4 and 5 and being poor defensively. James isn't Arike, your point about Arike being the main scout and still getting hers is a solid one. James isn't that, at least not at this stage of her career and maybe never will be. I just think she's a poor man's Arike, someone who can do a lot of the same things and plays a very similar style and costs less. I don't know Dallas' financial situation or flexibility. If they can afford to have Arike AND still go out and sign a legit quality big (ideally who defends well), then obviously that's the move. Paige, Arike and an elite post is a great trio with JJ and James and Jones etc around them as complementary pieces. [/QUOTE]
