Message: [QUOTE="JoePgh, post: 3802887, member: 1131"] That is not Geno's argument in this particular case (even though it is a true point). His point with Paige is simply that she is the best jump shooter on the team, so it doesn't make sense to pass the ball to someone else for a jump shot that is less likely to drop than her own shot would be. I don't recall any previous UConn team where the point guard was also the best jump shooter, unless you count Diana as a point guard. Renee had Maya and CD2, Moriah had KML and then KLS, Sue had Shea and then DT. As many Boneyarders have already observed, next year the normal pattern will return, as Paige will be able to pass to Azzi (and maybe Caroline Ducharme and/or Saylor) with a clear conscience and a high level of confidence that their jump shots are at least as good as hers. But for this year, she and Geno and all of us have to live with a situation that seems unnatural for a UConn team. [/QUOTE]
