Message: [QUOTE="Lurker, post: 3743321, member: 3787"] What I so vividly remember is that Mo brought so much excitement and so many jaw-dropping, how the heck moments to the court - offensively and defensively. Her athleticism and fast-twitch, lightening-like reactions were off the charts and took slow motion to follow to be sure you really saw what you thought might have happened. And, she delivered all of that with a joyful exuberance that was infectious (maybe a bad term to use in these COVID days :eek:). Basketball lit a spark in her, yet she was so humble and thankful of her gifts when I met her. All these years later and I can still remember how stunned I was to see her dribbling on the floor to rise up from that scrum of sprawled and tangled players, dribbling down the court ahead of everyone for a score. And there was that behind the back pass from midcourt while falling out of bounds to Stewie racing to score before the opposing following player fouled. If Stewie had aggressively dunked that ball it would have a million + likes by now. And there was a drive she made where she set the ball suspended in the air in front of Stewie just in front of the basket, waiting for her to dunk it for the assist - and then she playfully nudged Stewie for taking the easy way to score. And the time she was dribbling with 2-3 opposing players at the top of the key, and suddenly she is the only one in the paint casually dribbling for a lay-up while all the opposing players were standing with blank looks outside the paint while trying to find her. Gosh I miss Mo!! I'm hoping that Paige can bring some of that same kind of fun and excitement!! [/QUOTE]
