Message: [QUOTE="Lynx23, post: 4555108, member: 309"] I voted for Lou even though there's been some inconsistency on her part of late. Several other players are deserving, and without any one of them, we'd be lucky to have a .500 record since the Big East has given us the competition we always desired when UCONN was in the American Conference. The difference is, Lou's contribution was never a "given", especially since she never played at the competitive level she does now. One stat I did look at was turnovers, and unfortunately two other candidates for the artificial MVP crown lead in that category....by a lot. One can argue that they come with the territory, and that may be true, but they were maddening nonetheless and contributed mightily to each of our losses, especially the fast break passes into the stands. I always feel more comfortable when Lou is on the floor, knowing that she can get hot at any moment, and she made the shot that ultimately made the difference in the game on a number of occasions when things looked bleak. I also appreciated when she would get annoyed and sing "Le Marseillaise" to the opponent who offended her. Anyway, bottom line is they are all collectively MVP, and it will certainly be a year to remember (or forget as some may choose). [/QUOTE]
