Message: [QUOTE="PhillyCoach, post: 5062757, member: 6136"] As a coach I like to look at my team or another team (UConn) and make decisions on "what is my starting lineup on day one." I did that with soccer, basketball, and tennis. As a fan and poster I am "curious" about what Geno thinks and how all the players will fit into the coming season. Many posters/fans are curious too. The Boneyard is a fun thing for me and it helps me get away from the chaos/problems around us. As a counselor I am interested in how people think and make their decisions. As we all know, some posters have quite different views and ideas. Some interpretations of what I wrote were amusing (by the way I started this thread.) Azzi has come up lots of time from posters. I clearly stated she is coming off injury and has a few hoops to jump through before she starts. Remember, we are talking about starting in November/December. When fully healthy she will probably start. Chen has come up too and I stated that I think she will be an early starter (experience). I put in Jana as an early starter (and long term too) and ask Geno if International players are trained and developed differently than AAU - USA players. Look at the NBA, International Bigs can actually shoot fouls and have more total skills. Jana does too. I still believe that Sara will still be learning the total Defense package early and will come off the bench. I also believe she will start or play MUCHO minutes later in the season. Ice is a question. I think she will come off the bench, but Geno will experiment with her and Jana together. Could be early or develop later--that's a question to be answered. So, to reiterate, Paige, Ash and KK will start the season and I think Chen and Jana will be there too. [/QUOTE]
