Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 4699468, member: 5798"] Those highlights were amazing. They show how much Aaliyah has grown and matured the last 3 years. There is no reason Aaliyah can't play like this in every game. Consistency is the name of the game. Aaliyah IS NOT a magician. She will show up for every game. You know exactly what you're going to get from her every night. [B]I see no reason she can't average a double-double this season[/B], and prove to herself and others that she's ready to move on to the WNBA. We've been talking about how formidable Jana can be, and how good Paige and Azzi can be. Aaliyah must be included in those thoughts and conversations. Aaliyah is already a nightmare for opponents. Every year, her teammates say how aggressive she is, and how much more aggressive she is than last year. I love her willingness to attack the rim. Hopefully Geno will put her in a position to be successful. She's still wearing the face mask. No need to discard it now. It's not hindering her play one bit. This year, she needs to bear down even more, and become a focus for opponents to try and stop or slow down. We have several players on this year's team that are sure to be fun to watch. Aaliyah is definitely one of them. I'm looking forward to seeing her "dominate" the competition. [/QUOTE]
