Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 4255582, member: 1131"] I agree with what you have said about Liv's deficiency in scoring (and not traveling or fouling) when she gets the ball in the low post. However, I would point out that (per Geno) she herself does not want to play in the low post on offense. That is why she was very happy to get Aaliyah as a teammate so that she could play at the high post (where she wants to be) and facilitate the offense from there. Now that she has a decent shot from that distance, she is very effective within the offense when she does that. I think that she could be very valuable to a WNBA team as a backup 5 or starting 4, operating primarily from the high post or the elbow on offense. As you have stated, her defense and rebounding are solid, certainly as good as anyone else in this year's WNBA draft, and her passing skills are good also. I see her as a late first round or second round draft choice in a few weeks. But I don't think it's in her best interest to hang around in Storrs for another year. [/QUOTE]
