Message: [QUOTE="Mandoo, post: 4600571, member: 12524"] KK is desperately needed on the Huskies' team effort. You saw what Georgia Amoore did for her team when she ran circles around OSU's so-called full court press. Amoore just simply broke the press and opened up VT for many easy baskets. That is something that Nika cannot do at this time. I fully expect a number of teams to throw a press at UConn and they will either learn how to deal with it or else......KK, in my estimation, is that key person who will be a press breaker. UConn got caught not knowing what to do and the 3rd quarter exposed them badly. Do coaches get better as they go along in their careers or not? Geno himself implied that the answer to the question was not...... I'm dating myself but I remember LONG time ago when the Celtics had Bob Cousy as their point guard. He was a dribbling nightmare that had such incredible control over the ball he was unstoppable when it came to presses. He had huge hands and amazing control over the ball. Left, right, between the legs, etc. Best ever at that part of the game, ever. KK can score and dribble and has a toughness, like Nika, already. I think she'll flourish and I also think it would be wise to start her. I guarantee that GA will be here until he's as old as Warren Buffett. 92 years young and still plugging. Guaranteed, lay your money down on this sure bet. [/QUOTE]
