Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 2399879, member: 7511"] Given Geno’s comments regarding the comfort level of the Core 4 in the same roles they had last season with Crystal on the floor, clearly Z would not replace Crystal or Kia as a starter. Lou, as a result of her shooting and overall offensive skills, along with the fact that every team UConn plays starts their game plan figuring out how to defend her, also appears to be off the table when it comes to starting Z. That leaves Gabby and Pheesa. Gabby does a lot of things on the court that nobody in WBB can do, particularly on defense, so it’s difficult to come up with a rationale to have Z start over Gabby. Z’s game and role with the Huskies is similar to Pheesa. While one or two BY’ers have suggested that Z will start over Pheesa, I’m not sure how you replace a consensus AA, who will only get better this season. [/QUOTE]
