Cant wait til KK suits up for UConn!
Don’t you dare speak ill of our friend C!!Saw Toomey on local TV for the first time. Great touch, nice hands on offense and defense, moves well. Nice instincts on the offensive boards but not great aggressiveness on the defensive glass. She keeps her hands at her sides too much in the post and doesn’t call for the ball. I think she’ll be really good and local basketball people say she’s going to UConn.
Defense is a struggle for almost every incoming freshmen. Can we ALL agree on that and not bring it up ALL the time. College is a different animal than HS. Right?Have watched 3 of C’s games. She sure can shoot and has a pretty good handle for a big. While I think she’s capable of running the floor I really haven’t seen her do it much. Also agree defense will be a work in progress.
Et tu Slu? Are you not a friend?Ciera Toomey and Dunmore were supposed to play a marquee game against a top-10 team in the nation today but it was postponed.
I hope and pray that there is mutual interest between Mikayla Williams and UCONN, otherwise my prayers of the last 18 months will have gone unanswered. Watkins is a very talented player that had/has UCONN interest. Williams is drawing comparisons to Maya the magnificent.We need guards badly.
For 2023 we have “KK”
Besides being the #1 and #2 recruits for 2023
Is there any mutual interests from Mikayla Williams and / or Juju Watkins? I see Mikayla is from LA.. maybe Kim & LSU?
You must be new around here. We need BIGS!!We need guards badly.

The first things I noticed two years ago were the footwork, court awareness, and her ability to react quickly to what the defense gives her. She has no hesitation to shoot or make her move as soon as it’s there. That’s BB IQ that most college players don’t have.I continue to marvel at Brady's footwork. Truly elite for a player at any position. Very few here will realize how hard it is to achieve this level of proficiency.
one thing I've learned from this season is that you can have all the 6'4" -6'5" players you want but if you can't get them the ball inside they might as well be 5'5"...........You must be new around here. We need BIGS!!
Or if they don't know what to do with it when they get it.one thing I've learned from this season is that you can have all the 6'4" -6'5" players you want but if you can't get them the ball inside they might as well be 5'5"...........

This one was interesting to watch. I am not as high on Ice as many. I do think she has good footwork. However, she also is a bit slow. I started to change my mind watching this clip, thinking dang she isn't slow afterall. But then I realized the video is not at normal speed ... its sped up. Going back again to watch all her previous videos, I still worry that she is going to be a bit slow when she gets into the college game. For a big, she has a good perimeter shot, and she can handle the ball well. So, hopefully I am totally off and it all translates well at the next level. But I do have concern about her speed.I continue to marvel at Brady's footwork. Truly elite for a player at any position.

Larry Bird was relatively slow too. But when you have strong fundamentals, know where you are, and know how to set up a defender with subtle moves and ball fakes it can sometimes work to your advantage. Try to move too fast like Juhasz tends to do down low and you get out of control and balance. Brady can feel and read the defense and doesn't rush. I think she's going to draw a lot of fouls inside posting up and kill people from 15-18 feet. I'm not worried about her foot speed because she knows where she's going and doesn't waste steps wandering. Plus she'll be in much better condition after a summer at UConn.This one was interesting to watch. I am not as high on Ice as many. I do think she has good footwork. However, she also is a bit slow.

Stef Dolson. Slow but outstanding footwork.Larry Bird was relatively slow too.

Yes. And maybe a little quicker was Morgan Tuck. No rush, seal, protect the ball with her body and score.Stef Dolson. Slow but outstanding footwork.
