Message: [QUOTE="Mister2, post: 2507402, member: 8504"] Since a basketball team has 5 players, I don't quite understand the fascination many seem to have about the Mt. Rushmore allegory, which arbitrarily restricts the choice to 4 players. A more meaningful question seems to be the choosing of the 5 players who would make up the GOAT team at a given point in time. I am a big KLS fan, but if I were asked to assemble the GOAT team at this juncture, I would not, and could not, have picked her; the stats simply do not support such a choice. To be fair, I don't think the OP is claiming she is already on the Mt. Rushmore either. Could she be on the GOAT team at some future point in time when her UCONN career is over? The answer is obviously yes. Whether she would be will depend a lot on how she performs during the rest of this season and the next. One thing I am quite certain though is that, based on her current performance trajectory, it would take a major calamity (such as a serious injury) to occur to not consider her as ONE of the greatest UCONN players ever (specifically, if one can have a GOAT first team and a GOAT second team, I think KLS's chance to be on the latter is pretty secure).
