Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 3426912, member: 1220"] A lot depends on matchups. What I see in Giomi is the defensive range she covers. I have not seen a post in WCBB that can cover as much defensive space. She is also stronger than she appears and does not get pushed off the block like many players her size. The thing is that she is not even close to the offensive player that Hebard is. There is a huge drop off when Hebard is out. This is why she does not get that many minutes. I also believe that Greaves, although he is adapting, does not value defense as much. If I were Giomi I would have transferred out two years ago. I certainly can understand playing behind Hebard that she gets so few minutes. However, what is not understandable was her not getting as many minutes as Oti Gildon did last season. She was a tweener who should have never seen the court. I think it was because she came together with Greaves to Oregon from Gonzaga high school when he came from Gonzaga college-- same campus. A bit of favoritism. [/QUOTE]
