Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 4017348, member: 3535"] Not sure it does- though I'm surprised Azzi was the pg. But what is your example supposed to prove? If you are going to use this example as the main barometer then can't we also say that Azzi is actually the better pg and should be for this team going forward? I did see the following year Paige was mostly the pg in U18 vs Belgium in the 4th quarter when game was tight. Though she was not it Vs Australia in the next game. There was though a podcast posted on here recently in which Geno was talking with 2 other guys on their own show about basketball strategies. Geno said he could've practiced during the season a lot by putting Paige in pick-n-rolls and felt no one could've eventually stopped her. But he said that would require other players to do nothing but sit at the 3pt line and he said no way was he going to do that. Not fair to the others. And he said in the NBA when they do that the guys who hang outside are getting paid $10million. I don't have the link - but I know what I heard. And if a coach such as Geno is talking about that to the degree he did-- that is not a description of a wing. A wing can do some pick and rolls but - but featuring it-- this is more of a description of a pg - and much less as a wing. Its just her team needed her to be more of a wing. But in this case- if CD is as good as so many are predicting on here than you add up Azzi - and with Dorka having such a supposedly good outside shot and add in that CWill, Evina and Nika aren't slouches- why wouldn't we consider Paige being an "off-the-charts" pg if you can utilize the pick-n-roll?
