Message: [QUOTE="and one, post: 4276304, member: 10475"] Our recruiting as been just fine. A roster that includes the likes of Paige, Azzi, AE, Dorka, Nika and CD is enough to win most games. The only significant weakness is not having a proven player that can dominate the paint like Boston can. There are few players that can match her combination of size, athleticism and agressiveness. Somehow some combination of Dorka, Piath, Amari, Ice and Patterson will have to at least keep her honest. Of that group only Dorka is a known entity. She is big enough, has good skills and a high rpm motor. She cannot handle a Boston without help. Piath is the only true center of the bunch and has as yet not shown she can be a steady rotation player much less challenge the best bigs out there. It would be great if Amari can be a good scoring distributer but she isn't a banger. Brady and Patterson are both highly regarded recruits, neither particularly tall but excellent athletes. How useful they will be next year is anyone's guess. A wild card is Griffin. Another non-banger who if she comes back 100% should be able to get her share of rebounds just by out jumping people. This group should be able to control the paint against most any team. Against the Boston's of this world all they have to do is limit the damage and use their own skill sets to create damage of their own. [/QUOTE]
