Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 2808799, member: 2117"] Not to get off topic..but Wilson now has teammates who can hit open shots which creates much better spacing for her to operate inside or from the high post. She didn’t have that her last year at SC, she was essentially the only strong offensive threat on the roster. In the pros she’s been very good, but she’s also had a green light unlike any rookie I’ve seen before. She’s had more than her share of bad shooting nights (12 games where she’s shot between 20-38%) and she always takes 10+ shots per game. Vegas needs her to be effective so I don’t see any problem with that, but I don’t see her as being a whole lot more integrated as a pro as much as she has better teammates and has landed on a team that desperately needed size and production from the post. And Deshields never had blowups, she always kept her cool. She just never seemed all that passionate on the court and was rarely in sync with teammates. Never saw a shot she disliked and knew she could play Diamond ball since she was so talented and Holly never kept her in line. The pros she’s played with much more control and hasn’t forced the issue, in part because she probably knows she can’t or she’ll be benched in favor of another good player. She knew she wasn’t ever going to be benched at Tennessee. [/QUOTE]
