Message: [QUOTE="Los24, post: 3036354, member: 7629"] And he said that about Lou last year.... Most think she is better than past years, more complete, outside a shooting slump. They are both great but different players. I can tell you one thing I see that is not in stats, two defenders running to Lou leaving a teammate wide open, even during a huge slump. Taking on extra responsibilities of bringing up the ball, in-bounding, backup (every position,) vocal leadership, etc... [B]Pheesa is great and I hope she wins POY[/B] but to argue Lou is not at the same level is not accurate, just as people debated the same Soph and Junior seasons in the other direction. I thought Pheesa was good last year but was forced to play different or out of place because of the make up of players from the year before changed. Point is they both bring different skills and value to our team, and I would rather hoist both up than take one down. I first referenced Pheesa as the quiet assassin her Soph year because she cuts you 1000 ways and you don't even realized she dropped 20pts and 10rebs every night. All that said, its a board and some criticism of a player I think is okay. I appreciate your point about Lou (not) creating her own space. I do not agree 100% because you are comparing her to two of the best players that can do that at a high level and is their strength. Everyone does not have to be able to do that to be good or great. At the next level I think it not as critical. I did not see any of that with Kia and she seems to be doing well at next level. BTW I don't think insulting religion or faith is necessary or should be tolerated on this board, along with politics. Most people like to judge yet never take the time to truely study and understand either. [/QUOTE]
