Message: [QUOTE="ballerfan, post: 4265776, member: 11596"] Hey HopJim. I’ve read all the comments in this thread, as you probably have, too, and I’ve seen lots of love for Azzi. Azzi, Paige, and Christyn were the stars of the show. One of Azzi’s best moments was at the end of the game when she scrambled to get the inbound pass and then managed to throw the ball through a defender to E, setting up E’s pass to CW for the final basket. Azzi is just a freshman but played fearlessly. It’s hard not to focus on what Paige did. She’s still not 100%, and earlier in the game she made mistakes that pre-injury Paige would never do. But when the team needed her the most, she willed herself into the old Paige, dominating like no one else can do. It was exhilarating. But you know what? Paige and Azzi are best friends, and I bet they are celebrating together and really don’t care who’s getting more attention and credit. As Paige once said about their friendship, it’s « ride or die » — willing to do anything for each other, even in the most dangerous situations. [/QUOTE]
