Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4770769, member: 9844"] This is very encouraging. Because of the hip surgery last summer and the ongoing concussion issues which didn't allow her to even keep in shape while out, Caroline was a shadow last year of what she showed when healthy her first year. At first night you could tell she looked more like she did her freshmen season. Now if she can avoid getting hit in the head! The other comments I find most encouraging pertain to Ice and KK. We badly need Ice to be playable from the get go, and the Willis Reed comparisons suggest Geno is pleased with what he is seeing and expects her to make a major contribution. The same for KK and the "electric" reference. In her case the need is not as strong with Nika and Paige but it implies that she is forcing Geno to use her and make her part of the rotation. Reading between the lines with Geno is often a good way to get an idea of how things are going. Going forward the players I am most curious about are Ayanna and Amari. Their potential roles, progress in their games and of course health seem to be the main variables that are most unknown. For that reason I hope we can get more indirect feedback from Geno regarding them as they recover and prepare for the upcoming season. [/QUOTE]
