Message: [QUOTE="PhillyCoach, post: 2430865, member: 6136"] Lots of great insights as usual. Many are comparing Meg's first good game to Danger's Baylor game.---Maybe, but I'm not buying. Point guard is the most difficult (as we all know) because the PG is the conductor. Big decisions and big responsibility. IMHO Meg's season will be more like Lou's--but Meg will be more well rounded finishing her freshman year than Lou was. If we remember, Lou cold just stand around as the Big three ran the show. Lou pretty much waited in the corner until someone passed her the ball and she had no decision to make---she just shot it! Shot it well of course. Meg is the 5th wheel like Lou was, but IMHO she already has shown solid evidence where multiple skills have peeked out of the cauldron of potential. Meg is a solid defender today. She always has active hands, quick feet, and a tenacity modeling Kia. Geno has trust in her D. Meg has that aggressiveness when she sees an opening and is willing to go for it. She probes for lanes modeling Danger. Meg is long and seems to be in the right place more times than not--modeling Collier. Meg is very athletic, speedy with some quickness, nimble, coordinated (like a hurdler) modeling Gabby. She felt comfortable in a big game, confident that she belonged, she has BB IQ, and the heart of a lion--modeling the UConn Basketball Program. Meg is attempting to fulfill the UConn model of --a versatile player. Danger had the world put on her shoulders last year and did OK. Megan can relax and play the game, developing like a slow cooking BBQ. I see it as the glass half-full. The potential has been revealed and will grow and grow into a full glass sooner than later. Meg will get lots of minutes off the bench because Geno trusts her and knows what she can be. [/QUOTE]
