Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 4773315, member: 3535"] Our past posts? First off, you think what Geno has said means he is going to replace Nika with KK? So, if Geno doesn't have KK replace Nika, how was my "new-toy-post," wrong? Because I'd like to hear the quote from Geno that said this? Secondly, I have been in agreement with Geno's philosophy for these many years, you haven't, correct? So, what you know of Geno, - you really think what he is saying this early means he is going to change after all these years? LOL. Good luck to you and your curve. Because, for example, after all - you don't value 3pt shooting and Geno does, right? You don't value Defense nuch because you say anyone can learn it, but apparently Geno differs from your pov, right? Third, you don't think much of someone that is passing - either anyone can do it or you think Nika doesn't do much to write home about, - yet Geno did put Nika in as a starter in her frosh year moving Evina to Power Forward while keeping both Griffin and Edwards on the bench- so you and Geno probably not aligned with that either, right? With all these differences in philosophy along with your wish for UCONN to play more size in which Geno has shown you over-and-over he won't necessarily do, you think after all this time he is changing? And add to that - he has Paige and Nika as pgs. He has Paige and Azzi as SGs. He has Caroline and Aubrey and Paige as small forwards. If you think in big games he is going to not play these player’s hefty minutes if he deems them fully healthy - then let's just say we don't agree. IMO KK will play decent to good minutes beuccase of number 4 and wll get even more if 2 or 3 should arise. These have nothign to do with your imaginary curve. For number 1 in part I have always disagreed with your view of what you want a pg to be. Number 1 defines our differences again. 1--- KK shows she has a terrific outside shot (you want her to be more of a penetrator, correct? Go one-on-one and get in the lane more? We disagree with what we want from our pg for this team, correct?) But, for example if KK s going to shoot 40% from 3 - I'm on board. But you hate the 3, right? So who would be ahead of the curve in this scenario? I'm just doubting year 1 heroutside shot will fall but in no way do I rule it out. My argument is that I don't want KK taking away shots from Paige and Azzi for example,. (You know how much I like outside shooting, right? Has Geno indicated different?)- while others have ruled out Muhl complletely. Ruling out Muhl makes me behind the curve? WHere did you pick up that from Geno? Anyone that has ruled out Muhl (gettign less time than KK) is considered ahead of the curve? 2-- Nika's 3pt shot tanks for 34% to much worse. (You know how much I like 3pt shooting, right? You think Geno has changed on this too? 3--- If Caroline (and/or Azzi and/or Paige) is hurt then KK will be needed. Was that in our discussions of injuries? It is just logical with any injury to Paige, Azzi, Caroline or Nika-- ofc KK gets more minutes. Not sure about Aubrey. But I would assume so too. So what has changed with this? 4- More blowouts this year - so yes KK will get minutes. I never argued against this. I've said all along this team is going to blow out a lot of teams if healthy and that is when the bench will play. You really think Geno has changed? [/QUOTE]
