Again can support either outcome between Gabby and Lou.  I do want to throw some perspective on "other numbers being slanted." 
 
- Everyone uses Assist to Turnover ratio as a measurement.  Lou leads UConn and is #12 in the country
- However I like turnover to steals better as it really nets possessions value (similar to net +/- turnover in football.)  Lou leads team with a +5 & Gabby is a -3
- Also Lou has less than 1/2 the fouls 19 vs 42.  Even with the lesser amount of games played that is a big difference of putting (or pushing along the chance of) opposing players getting to the charity stripe.
- In my opinion Lou can avg as many assists as Gabby, meaning she can pass as good, but Lou is a much better scoring option (finisher) and her primary role is to score.

[B]I can list a bunch of great Gabby attributes and she is a worthy candidate, one that again I could support.[/B]  The reason I posted the above is we all talk about things that the (MAIN) stats do not show, I tried to use some less observed stats to show that Lou is a truly well rounded player and not just a scorer (not that DefenseBB was stating that.)
