Paige's Wings Page (merged thread)

Once they get the lights and cameras on them, a lot of people fall in love with it and have to run their mouth about everything. Bueckers is too smart to get down in the muck with them, she’s playing chess.

Would still like to see after the new contract is finalized . Emma, Stewie , and JJ join Paige for a chance at a couple of Championship runs before they retire.
New York has become a mess, and will be lucky to get past the 1st round.

I don’t think she’s playing chess with her responses. I think she is very genuine, one of her many admirable traits.

Yes, she’s genuinely playing chess by staying above the yapping. 😉

Sponsors tend to not like yapping. Speaking of sponsors I would think Paige continues to attract them though I haven't heard of any lately.

Bueckers is handling this league kind of like Gretzky handled the NHL. She's probably already the most CREATIVE scoring/passing guard in the league, especially with the team she has to work with.

She's playing an exhausting game. It would be exhausting if she wasn't grabbed on every second play and the refs look away.

Cunningham has become a solid veteran in the W, and I appreciate the fact that she has assumed the role of team enforcer, particularly in regards to CC. But as you indicate, she’s become something of a loose cannon when it comes to the press, which is not going to gain her a lot of fans outside of Indianapolis. Paige is 6 years her junior, and displays far more maturity and poise.

And this, my BY friend, is why we are so appreciative of CD's training with the team on interactions with the media. We are blessed to have a coach that invests the time into the players and teaches them good etiquette. There have been a number of times that "loaded" Qs were tossed at a UConn player, and they handled it well.
