Message: [QUOTE="hjoerring, post: 2059188, member: 3630"] Personally, it is my view that KLS worth is overstated. There is no doubt that she is an excellent shooter and is the team's 3pt threat. But it has been shown that you can take her out of the game. Thus, my point isn't that she is the best pure shooter on the team, then it is that opposing defenses will target her because she is the one that is stoppable. Pheesa moves so often and so quickly and is so efficient in what she is doing that an opposing defense will not gain much from doubling her. While KLS has improved in shot creations, she is far away from being a player can produce for the team in the same way as Pheesa or others. Thus, I think Uconn can win with a less than productive KLS but, they would be on the early bus home with an equally less productive Pheesa, Gabby, etc. Having said this, the team requires KLS to play at a high level, or the others will be even more stressed. I would be surprised if Phessa doesn't add, consistently, the 4-pt shot next year. She has already the greenlight Lastly, with qualifications abound, who becomes an AA depends on who the team wishes to honor and other judges. Based on what happens or not on the floor for the player is critical for my evaluation. Thus Gabby and Pheesa are the 2 players I would put up. Given the dizziness surrounding points being scored by the publicum and even the authorities, it would be a waste of time to make a case for someone like Nurse-- not when there are players putting up 50pts or whatever.
