Message: [QUOTE="#12in21, post: 3690541, member: 10763"] I did! You could see how hungry and driven she was from day one with the Lynx. Crystal had unfinished business after the shortened college season and leaving UCONN without a title. She believes in herself and when the pieces fell into place, at the start of the W season, she played her heart out. A new league, new system and new challenges and she never looked back she just met and exceeded every challenge that Reeves gave her and gave everything she had night in and night out to get her team the W. The Lynx far exceeded expectations this year, many players including Dantas, Sims, Carelton and Banham played some of their best basketball but Crystal and Pheesa were the backbones for this year's success. Both came onto the team and were the pieces the Lynx needed to fill huge holes left by giants in Maya and Lindsay. Each dove in and killed their rookie seasons with the Lynx. Comparing who had a greater impact during their rookie campaign has no interest to me, I just know that two of our own are the future that Reeves will build around. How about a starting five next season of Crystal, Odyssey, Pheesa, Maya and Sylvia. (suspecting the big news Maya spoke about she and Jonathan hoping to announce next spring is family rather than basketball related - but one can hope we'll see her back on the court ala Michael Jordan to add some more titles).
