If you think Liz is just an 'ordinary big,' can you name a few who aren't ordinary and give reasons why? Very curious to see your thoughts.

Why so interested in your 6’7” girl shooting threes

Stewart is a 4 not a 5 like Griner and Cambage

If it’s part of her game the3 is fine but you can’t compare Stewart with Griner or Cambage Stewart doesn’t have the size or muscle of Cambage down low so Liz is better option underneath I a half court game

...so in your opinion, is what makes a big not ordinary just that they take a lot of 3pt shots and average a half block per game more than Cambage? Because JJ and Cambage averaged almost the exact same rebounds per minute. Go back a year further and Cambage's rebounding numbers are far better than JJ's. And Griner doesn't hold a candle to either in the rebound department.


Nothing about the way Liz plays is ordinary. She's far bigger and stronger than almost any other big in the league and has great hands and good shooting touch. She gives passers a huge window to pass the ball inside to her and has great hands for catching passes. The only other player with a comparable post presence inside is Griner. She's arguably the best in the league at establishing position on the low block and is automatic when defended 1 on 1 inside. She's strong as an ox and can finish through contact. She's also excellent facing up from midrange too.

And in regards to anger management, Griner has domestic violence charges and two separate incidents of throwing punches in games. Cambage jaws at the refs and picks up Ts. Very different. Cambage is actually quite similar to Diana Taurasi in this department, not Griner.

I know it's a set shot in warmups but that's a pretty look stroke

I only remember her taking one in a game at State, and pretty sure she made it.
