Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 5067872, member: 9844"] The more I see of Sarah in the 3x3 tournament, the more sure I am she will start at the 4, and the more I factor in what other players would most compliment her skill set. I think that bodes well for Azzi as soon as she is healthy, and Jana as even more likely to be the starter at the 5. Obviously Sarah has both a nice three point shot and great passing instincts. She can play inside, but certainly can play on the perimeter as well. That makes a go to low post scorer at the 5 much more valuable, because Sarah can stretch the defense with her shot and be effective feeding the post as well. Jana is aggressive around the basket, Ice so far has not been, or shown much ability to score down low, even though I think she has that ability. Jana appears to pair better with Sarah IMO. As for , playing with two other floor spacers and great passers (Paige and Sarah) should help her game tremendously also. Once she is healthy I think the starter debate boils down to who is the 5th player to go with Paige, Azzi, Sarah and Jana. That doesn't have to be the next best player necessarily, but could be what traits you need most and/or who fits best with the other 4. With so many good candidates, we can hope one of them truly breaks out from the pack. Whoever gets that spot will probably have to be significantly better than they have been, if a returnee, or greatly exceed expectations if they are a newcomer. [/QUOTE]
