Message: [QUOTE="PacoSwede, post: 5272867, member: 120"] agree completely with first boldface. second boldface, i agree that in '24-'25 paige was the one. however, i feel that in '23-'24 paige had a lot more on her plate and nika took on the 'heart of the team' role. although paige in theory[I] could [/I]do it, she didn't have to with nika there to take in on. nika was a natural, paige would have had to work at it -- and she had plenty of other responsibilities distracting her. i bet that's one of the reasons geno was so fond of nika -- she took an added burden off paige, helping both the team[I] and[/I] paige, the team's best player.
