Well Paige was absolutely NOT better than Hailey Van Lith, but maybe you could see it that way because you are a UConn fan. Rhyne Howard was clearly better than both of them and her play alone would seem to have made a neutral viewer lessen their opinion of anyone else on the team. I get it though. You are biased and want to express your biased opinion about her as if it were relevant.

Paige was selected MVP because Howard set out a game and part of another due to injury. Paige absolutely played well but had Howard played in every game there is no doubt in my mind she was the best player in the tournament and would have won MVP.

Once Bueckers acclimates and gets the feel of the college game, IMO she'll be one of the very, very few who can singlehandedly control the pace of a game.

So your bias is not bias, but his bias is bias? Got it. :confused:

This isn't true at all regarding Paige vs Hailey Van Lith. You're just lashing out because you are not being agreed with.

So we're to think with Paige getting MVP that the voting were all bias UCONN fans too?

There is absolutely no question that Paige will be an amazing player!!! Comparing her and Hailey is a little unfair. Paige will need to play PG meaning she will have the ball in her hands a lot. If you are honest its more important Paige is a star for you now. Contrarily although Hailey is very very good she does not have to be a star and its almost impossible since she is playing on a team with the best PG in that nation.
 
Where was I biased? I am a Louisville fan and it pains me to come here and tell the truth. Howard, who plays for UK and whom I hate so bad I wont even buy blue tooth paste or wear blue jeans, was the best player in the FIBA tourney last year. Save the stats, although they are very comparable with Paige's, were only offensive.

Not lashing out. But you came out, stated an opinion with nothing to support it, and then accused anyone with a different opinion as being biased. And, in case that wasn't enough, you disparaged the other poster by stating that an opposing opinion was not "relevant." What am I missing? :confused:
 
I don't know much about Bueckers or Van Lith.... but I do know that Louisville beat the brakes off of Depaul last week, yet the Blue Demons remained ranked at 1-2.

I watched virtually all the USA games and I thought that Paige was simply a better all-around player than Van Lith. She (Van Lith) is extremely impressive but Paige just seemed to be more under control. I would have to say that Van Lith is good enough that it would not surprise me in the least if we have to beat Louisville to win the NC. I think she is clearly stronger and more physical than Paige and she is imo helped by the fact that she does not have to run her team, as they have other options. Paige just seems like she is a more polished player. I would also point out these are all opinions (including yours) and stating absolutes based on opinions is just silly. If Paige was “absolutely not better than HIV” then why did she (Paige) win the MVP award? Regardless, I think we can all look forward to a solid rivalry with Louisville for the foreseeable future. Good luck (except when you are playing us)!

Well, Louisville and Hailey Van Lith have to hit the brakes for 10? days.
 
Unlike UConn where Brueckers best be good and the best player on your team, Hailey Van Lith is awesome but currently maybe the fourth best player on our team. She has plenty of time to be the best and I am sure will be when needed.
 
I see the Cardinal Authority Clown Show has traveled across state lines. Lucky us.

I didnt virtually watch all of the US games i watched them all. Additionally I watched many of the other games played during the tourney. Louisville has three players from three different teams that played.
 
I would never come to another board and break the rules intentionally. That person did not tell the truth and I thought important that it was pointed out. However I apologize for breaking the boards rules.
