Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 5328712, member: 3535"] Actually Bonedog made two amazing posts unless what you meant was [B]UCONN can’t be better than what they showed in FF. [/B]Other than that, Bonedog is spot on. Though I'm not sure what he meant by tongue-in-cheek after but what he initially said in which you said was homerism isn't really overall. And in regard to your point about Cardoso and comparing her to Page, Bonedog makes a terrific point when he says “[I]The situation with the departure of Paige is not exactly like the loss of Kamila . . . “ [/I]Your 1st title was with Wilson, arguably best player that year in WCBB or close. Then with Boston from Soph to Sr, and Cardoso you had top 5 players in WCBB. This past year who did you have even top 15? While UCONN next year has at least top 5 in Sarah ,and Azzi should be at least an All-American. And Sereh is expected to go 8th in WNBA draft for a reason while your 3 Seniors this past year were 2nd Rounders. The point using Cardoso and Paige as if they are similar imo isn’t really comparable. That’s not homerism. Bonedog’s post was spot on. [B]UCONN has superstars/All-Americans (and overall a better bench and now healthy vs last year at start of season.) to backfill Paige. SoCar did not have any superstars to backfill Cardoso. [/B] And now this year your team has two poential super players then maybe once you get wiped out - maybe once- but definitely not 3 times if they are healthy. If no injuries you have the A/A('s) (I think both will be). You were missing this last year, and also this year you have a good enough bench along with your super players makes your team a beast. That's not homerism either. IMO UCONN and SoCar are Final Four locks if no further injuries. [/QUOTE]
