Message: [QUOTE="HuskyNan, post: 4476351, member: 4"] I’ve never understood why people have to diminish the accomplishments of one player to enhance the accomplishments of another. Boston is one of several posts at South Carolina. She plays alongside Cardoso, Amihere, Saxton, Watkins, Kitts…. UConn fans know how beat up the star players get - if I were Dawn, I’d limit her time against out of conference opponents, too. Dawn has options, she can give her younger players time with more experienced players in the early season games. Boston is a great player and her stats don’t define her greatness. Anyone looking at Kelly Fari’ss stats would have dismissed her worth out of hand because she’s one of those players that can win a game without taking a shot. Likewise, Boston gives her team a lot without scoring 20 points every night. While Boston is great, I wouldn’t trade our Aaliyah for her. I simply prefer her motion on offense and the way she’s currently attacking the basket. The way Aaliyah plays, she facilitates Geno’s preferred style of offense so she’s perfect for UConn. And perfect for me, as a fan. Now that Dorka is back, Ayanna is improving, Amari is showing flashes of greater potential, and Aubrey is showing signs of being an important X factor, i really like the way the Husky frontcourt is rounding into shape. I look forward to the battle with South Carolina. [/QUOTE]
