Message: [QUOTE="hookshot, post: 5211174, member: 4756"] I think PB will enjoy (and actually feel less pressured) in a likely WNBA role as a distributer / scorer (somewhat in the Sue Bird mold). I think you could see a lot of double / doubles of the 15 points / 10 assists (or rebounds) variety. I think the physicality of the WNBA will be her biggest challenge. In contrast, CC has already shown she can handle the physicality and is already fated and comfortable in the role of a primary scorer, needing the ball in her hands, but still dealing up as many (or likely more) assists than PB. I think they are quite different players with PB holding a decided advantage as a mid-range shooter and CC holding the advantage as a 3 point shooter. CC also holds some advantage in willingness to take it to the rim. Overall, CC will fill up the stat books well beyond PB (on playing time alone, for sure) but PB will have the efficiency advantage. PB is best suited to lead a very talented roster team to a championship (again Sue Bird like), while CC is best suited to keep a less talented team in the mix [/QUOTE]
