I think Aaliyah drove the lane and the baseline better than Serah. This is something she could develop next fall. Also, most of Serah’s midrange shots are within 10 feet of the rim. Aaliyah stretched her range a bit more by her last two seasons. And of course, Aaliyah ran the floor in transition as well as any big ever has. This is true of Sarah too. And I still remember how well Olivia and Dorka ran the floor. I look forward to Serah improving her transition skills. The thing is, developing these skills is well within Serah’s capabilities and UConn is the best place to make this sort of progress. The ceiling for her is very high. If Kiki Iriafen could be a top-4 draft pick this year, I suspect Serah can be comparable in next year’s draft, especially after Geno and CD work with her. And I’ve said it before: I really look forward to seeing a big lineup that runs the floor really well, and Geno could have that with Sarah, Serah and Blanca. A big team that can run in transition is a bit of a unicorn in D1. But Geno might just have one to show us next season. [/QUOTE]
