Message: [QUOTE="jonson, post: 3759424, member: 6034"] I think [USER=8404]@LoTrader[/USER] is referring to the team, not 3-point shooting percentages. As for Nyara, her rehabbing has been so extensive that's it is easy to forget all the kudos that accompanied her recruitment--"as good as Satou," "maybe better," etc., etc. She's a very different player than her sister in some ways--a prototypical 4 rather than a 3, for instance--but, even with the rust, she seems extraordinarily gifted (to my eyes, she gets down the court just as fast as Satou, even with the brace) and perhaps further along than Satou was after 3 games at Oregon. And, until/unless Graves can convince Prince to be willing to mix things up a bit more inside, she will be absolutely essential against the more physical front courts the team will face. (I'd add that I believe the freshman Watson will be important in that regard as well.) In any case, her play, along with Boley's transformation, has been--if not a complete surprise--certainly a major plus among the returning players. [/QUOTE]
