Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4124689, member: 1131"] But, like Nika's 3-point shooting percentage last year, it is a strong indication that both Nika's and Caroline's current problems are with butterflies in their stomach(s) when they get on the court for very limited minutes. I understand Geno's dilemma: he can't afford to play them for a lot of minutes unless they are more productive than they have shown in the limited minutes he has given them. Last year, Nika got larger minutes when injuries forced other starters to play less. The same thing is happening now with Azzi's and Aubrey's injuries. I expect that Nika and Caroline will get gradually increased minutes, and (very gradually) they will get over the butterflies and perform at the level that their skills permit. [/QUOTE]
