Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 3507074, member: 591"] Its complicated, though, because Arizona had a great deal of diversity in who was bringing the ball up, the duty often devolved on Sam Thomas, Amari Carter, even Cate Reese less often. And once in the half court, it wasn't particularly apparent who the point guard necessarily was. The closest to a true point guard was Lucia Alonso, who's minutes decreased this season (although she was a valuable team member). At one point it looked like they would have liked Bryce Nixon to become a future point guard but she didn't really have the physical development. I also think (based on OOC games) that Mara Mote might be groomed in that general direction. The diversity in play was probably a strength this season. As Adia said, it wasn't that she wanted to depend on Aari as much as the team did, but at times she was the only one who truly stepped up (shades of Vivian / Cappie there). In any case, she was very blunt that the less Aari scored with Arizona winning the better the team was. [/QUOTE]
