OT: Tenn vrs Missouri

[Bayareahusky]

Simmons is certainly a lightning rod isn't she!? I have said before she would be on the bench if she was on my squad..... Too erratic, too self centered when it comes to shooting..... not the catalyst who spurs the offense, but one who cannot work within the framework of it..... and big connecting clause...... UNLESS she is directed to run it that way..... I have noticed this year that she has kept her emotion in check during games....(took 3 yrs. for this)..... and she has started to pass the ball a little more.... and if she is the best UT has..... Wow.... If I was coach, I would pound the ball down low where Margo and others have said the LVs have a decided advantage.. I think it is a coaching void that gameplan does not capitalize on this....

I remember back in the 70s I think.... Ausin Peay Univ. in Clarksville had a run-and-gun talent .....on men's team ...Fly Williams he averaged 35 a game I think.....led the nation but he was not a success in the long run.... because he never brought his teammates into the fold.. I think of Meaghan as Fly Jr. I respect her improvement.... but I do not think she can be part of a final four push next month

Impressive but I would love to see how many shots each of those players took.

As you wish.
Holdsclaw 3025 pts / 2419 shots (144 3pt) 1.25 pps
Gordon 2462 pts / 1985 shots (10 3pt) 1.24 pps
Parker 2137 pts / 1482 shots (60 3pt ) 1.44 pps
Catchings 2113 pts / 1508 shots (366 3pt) 1.40 pps
Lawson 1950 pts / 1475 shots (607 3pt) 1.32 pps
Simmons 1911 pts / 1696 shots (699 3pt) 1.13 pps

Note: Parker did that in 3 years.

On Edit: I see I am a little late to the party (typical), but I think I'll leave it anyway. A little bit different info than has been posted.

The fact that Holdsclaw scored 3,000 points. Without taking many threes is impressive. So is Parker points in just three years. From what I've seen of Dunbar. I don't think the three point shot will drop next year. She can shoot. She don't have the speed of Simmons.

Next to BG, Holdsclaw is my favorite player of all time. It is sad that mental health issue interrupted her career, but she was a spectacular player to watch in college.
