Nika

 

[Bigboote]

Nika. As Meghan said, “When the game gets gritty, you’re not gonna out-grit Nika Muhl.”

 

[CL82]

Good choice. I'm going with Shade. She's fearless on offense and relentless on defense. That's pretty much the definition of a badass.

Nika
HM to KK

 

[pghhuskydoc]

Nika.
Also gotta give a shout out to KK for that filthy fake right, go left drive.

 

[Jackalope]

Nika

Loved Geno's comments about her in the post game.

 

[huskeynut]

Nika!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Scud49]

Some of Nika's passes today - deep, fast, and accurate, hitting her teamamtes in stride - just beautiful.

 

[Topdawg]

I go with Nika!

 

[oldude]

I'm not sure if she's a point guard, shooting guard, combo guard or power forward. BUT NIKA IS MOST ASSUREDLY BAD ASS!!!

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Nika. Period.

 

[ME Husky Fan]

Whodda thunk Nika would turn into a sharpshooter to be reckoned with. Not me but crow tastes good. Nika all the way today!!!

 

[Next 12]

NIKA and Honorable Mention to the 4 other starters. The starting 5 was outstanding. GO TEAM!!!! GO HUSKIES!!!!!

 

[Blond D.]

Has to be my girl NIKA!! She fought like a tiger to get rebounds and it was rough in there. Her shooting, her assists, her steals were all great but her tenaciousness to get thru screens and box out was unmatched.

 

[MSGRET]

Nika, she did everything today and did it in 29 minutes of play. An honorable mention to our new Iron Woman Ashlynn Shade playing 39 minutes and the good thing is she will only get better.

I give a thumbs up for every post in this thread that just pick's one player.

Most of this season I haven't posted who was the BasAss of the game. Looking at the overall games there have been several each game.

Nika was the player of the game. Deserving so even if I can't quit seeing her pass up a fast break undefended layup for a really hard defended missed shot by Aaliyah.

Seriously doubt anyone is going to remember this but for me going forward until the tournament, I'm not going with Paige, Aaliyah, Nika, or Aubrey if she's able to return. These players IMO should do what they do every time they step onto the court.

Paige as the announcers like to say does Paige things. I think that should apply to the other three mentioned.

My pick for BadAss tonight is. . .

Ashlynn Shade.​

 

[bob15]

Nope. Shade, especially in the beginning when nobody wanted to shoot.

 

[Brewski]

When Coach Geno immediately looked to Shade to go shoot those technical free throws, you know he now trusts her and her game. That's why she has taken over for Nika as the minutes leader on the team. I go with Ashlynn Shade today.

could be she doesn't have the road damage nika has accumulated in 3+ years. ash has a pristine body and is fully capable. ... nika deserves the rest at her advanced age.

Nika to Ashlynn, “When I was your age I played all 40 minutes..,”

 

[Bone Dog]

I'm sympathetic to Ash and Nika. Nevertheless I have to cast my vote for KK, not just for her scoring, but mainly for driving Kelsey Ransom crazy on defense.

 

[dtbtbtb]

Nika!

Nika to Ashlynn, “When I was your age I played all 40 minutes..,”

and it was uphill both ways
