Message: [QUOTE="jdote33, post: 4338139, member: 11252"] I'm always up for a Dorka interview/article. I like the quote about her role. When she was brought in I thought her and Liv were going to be twin towers. They played together a bit but Dorka also started alongside Aaliyah and then came off the bench during the most important stretch of the season. Overall, I do think she had a good year, given her ever-changing role. I think she is a better outside shooter than I initially thought, and she was also a better passer than I thought. I remember in the Stanford game, Geno challenged Liv saying that its not fair to expect the UConn guards to make 30 jump shots to win the game. I think that's the challenge I see for Dorka as well. If she can finish inside a bit better through contact, with both hands, and then develop some type of post/back to the basket move, she'll for sure be exactly what the team needs this season. There will be some good test throughout the season though. I'd imagine early on we'll face Czinano (Iowa) and Taylor Jones(Texas). Then of course Tamari Key(Ten) and all the good bigs SC has. Should be some good tests for her, against other bigs with WNBA potential. [/QUOTE]
