Auriemma: "The defensive part is what really stands out most of the time when you see Gabby play," he said. "She just creates a lot for us. She plays the way Lawrence Taylor played linebacker. Single-handedly, she can ruin a team."

Geno's tip-of-the-cap to Taylor's coach, defensive coordinator Bill Belichick, who always has called Taylor the best NFL player ever. Can't scheme for him, no matter what you do. Ditto Gabby. The term "freak athlete" defines Gabby and vice-versa. Freak athlete isn't someone who plays just better than everyone else, like (say) Michael Jordan. Freak athlete is someone who plays brilliantly but differently. So, you can't just (say) double-team, because her floor game doesn't conform to normal patterns. There's really nothing you can do but hope that she gets into foul trouble.
