Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3367587, member: 2117"] Moore would obviously be 1st team and Adam's HM, but in this decade they only played 1.5 full seasons (all of 2010 and half of 2011) so I didnt include them. I understand the argument for Ionescu and dont necessarily disagree with the arguments. Much of it comes down to what you value more. I just think at this point, Diggins and Jefferson are much more proven on the big stage (Sabrina had a poor showing in the Final Four) so I'd give them the edge. Whether you win a Lieberman Award, DPOY or POY doesnt mean a lot when comparing head to head IMO. Jefferson likely wins POY if Stewart isnt there as a senior, and Diggins was likely 2nd or 3rd in POY behind Griner both of her last two seasons. Ionescu simply hasnt had a player the caliber of Griner or Stewart to compete with for POY awards, so I don't think it is fair to penalize Jefferson/Diggins for not taking home the trophy when you take that into consideration. Regarding Vivians, she was phenomenal as a senior and helped get her team to the Final Four as a junior, but like Plum was largely a volume shooter her first 3 years and never put her team on her back to take them to the Final Four. Morgan William carried them in the Elite 8, McCowan dominated the 4th quarter in the 2017 Sweet 16. McCowan's dominance over her last two years shone brighter to me than Vivians being a big scorer although I thought Vivians was an excellent player. [/QUOTE]
