A.Edwards may just be evolving into a super star of the Paige B level. Her accuracy at the foul line also suggests that she will be proficient, shooting the 12-16 footers. When she does that, she will be an unstoppable weapon.
It had to be something she said in reference to a call that was made or one that wasn’t. It may have been something Geno nor the producers wanted Meghan or Alan to repeat.
That's what I was thinking. ONO said something like "it's about time" and got T'd up. We'll never know because the media won't ask about it.
You’re right!! I gladly stand corrected.
Last year she had Harris and Harrigan to get her the ball. This year the guards seem to be playing for themselves.
I put this in the play of the game thread but this is the moment she released the pass to Evina for the layup. When she committed to the pass, EW was still at the three point line starting her cut. So Paige sees it develop, looks at CW on the wing to freeze the defense, and whips it into the seam. Hard to explain how difficult it is to process all that so quickly. If she looks at EW for any amount of time, the player at the bottom of the zone and the player guarding Edwards probably both jump the passing lane, but she looks everyone away at the right moment and is still able to put it on the money.
If you say that to most refs, they will T you up.!!!
Ya, this pass is really impressive.
Butler players had been mauling her all game so I suspect when they finally called a foul she probably said something like about "expletive" time and they T'd her up... Refs should have been doing their job calling fouls instead of giving Liv a Technical in my opinion.
Probably true but I need an explanation why Boston is listed as a forward in ESPN.com.
No one wants to be a center anymore... They all want to be forwards now just because they shoot a jump shot once or twice a game....
Well, since I don't know what position to designate Boston so as to have a conversation, let's just say that Boston would be smart, as their parallel careers progress, to be designated something different from Aaliyah.
Not that I know of.
I agree Jordy but Geno is protecting against foul trouble. (my guess) She was very prone but getting better. I see her needed for more minutes come tourney time.
Again I agree with the premise but doesn't CD cover all the listed above. She has gotten accolades for years as being the players watch dog on all things right down to travel attire.
Agree, as O took a pounding tonight she may have let out a bomb not directed at anyone, but they will "T" it up every time.
Wasn’t trying to do anything of the sort. I didn’t see her. That’s all.
Aubrey did contribute today the problem is she doesn't know the offense..I watched her twice turn her head around not knowing what to do or where to go..great athlete but her basketball skills(shooting..passing..and dribbling)are subpar
Edwards is not more versatile at this time, not offensively. How many times have you seen Edwards shoot a mid range or three point shot and hit it? Edwards is good enough that there is no need to embellish her talent. Boston does not hustle as much and seems to be out of shape but she is still an AA talent. Edwards seems to be well on her way but is not there yet. There are other freshmen forwards having outstanding seasons. See those listed by Coco.
It is really not just about playing stronger per se; unfortunately, it seems the reflexive bringing the ball down seemingly imbedded in Ono‘s muscle memory makes her susceptible and somewhat defenseless against the double team. Every coach knows it, that’s why it is virtually a constant when she posts up.
She's playing starter minutes. Why make unnecessary changes that get them into their heads?
I believe Paige is satisfied with the way she played based on her comments after the game. She was not satisfied with her shooting. Also, for those who are thinking she has hit the freshman wall, if that were true she would not continue to pass the ball the way she has continued to do or run the team the way she has. That wall takes away everything, imo.
Well okay, with the reservation that I'd like to call them freshman next year with the idea that we've got them for another three years. I mean, those terms are going to be a little soft for the next four or five years right?
Come on, Geno's already bad for WCBB.
She's a freshman. She doesn't know what she is talking about.
looks like plenty of people agree with you victor. I was just saying a couple games ago that she should get a few more minutes this year.
