Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 3285815, member: 5823"] Not steady improvement. Oregon had a better record the year before Sabrina arrived than it did when she was a freshmen and identical record in each of the past two years. That Angel and Skylar also elevated their programs in a similar manner kind of proves my point that Sabrina, although very good, is not a “transcendent” player any more than Wilson who elevated SC all the way to a championship. Without playing a single minute as a senior Sabrina has 24 loses on her resume. That is more loses than Maya, Candace, and Stewie had [B]COMBINED[/B]! In your own words “Sims/ Diggins/Angel are comparable players to Sabrina" underscoring my point that she is not transcendent. Even with another POY award she will not be even close to joining Maya, Candace, or Stewie. Had to double check for a second but I believe I included Vandersloot on my list of comparable players to Sabrina. It seems that you are agreeing with the comparison. Are your serious right now? UNC freshman Diamond DeShields had a better freshmen season and tournament run than Sabrina did as a Freshmen. By the end of her junior season Stewie had collected 3 rings and 2 NPOY awards. At the conclusion of her junior season Maya Moore had lost only 2 games. At the conclusion of her junior season A’ja Wilson was an NCAA champion. At the conclusion of her junior season even your girl Teaira McCowan had made consecutive appearances in the championship game. At the conclusion of her junior season (her last) Jewell Loyd had competed in 3 consecutive FF and 2nd consecutive championship games. At the conclusion of her junior season Skylar Diggins was making consecutive appearances in the Championship game. At the conclusion of her junior season Chiney Ogwumike had led her team to consecutive FF appearances. Incidentally Sabrina is going to have to have one hell of a senior season to match the senior season of Chiney -26.1 PP and 12.1 RPG. Please aim lower while trying to big up Sabrina. I’ll kick it to you this way. Chiney’s junior season 22.4 PPG, and 12.9, FF appearance in more impressive than any season Sabrina has put together so for or is likely to put together. Both Chinney’s Junior and senior season would have resulted in NPOY awards except for the presences of Stewie on the WCBB stage. You may also want to go back a few pages in this thread and read [USER=15]@UConnCat[/USER] post about the 4th quarter of the Baylor game. Consistency matters most at crunch times like those; Sabrina was not. I have watched very closely. The eye test is not an “objective measure” but since you went there, my calibrated eye tells me that Moriah Jefferson (as an example) has more ways of impacting the game than Sabrina. I’m not going to go as far as a recent post that called Sabrina slow (slow footed?) but I’ll simply point out that in a conference, not exactly know for defense, Sabrina has yet to make an All-Pac 12 Defensive team. Moriah was NDPOY and a few of the other players I previously mentioned will D you up all day long=more ways to impact the game. [/QUOTE]
