yes .... but i thought she might have tweaked her hip.
Boy did that hit the proverbial nail on the head. This team (most anyway) are just to nice, too easy going. We don't have a Jen Rizzoti that wanted to rip the opponents throat out. They are too shy,except for Nika and AE. After a loss like we had last game against Ark., that old team would have been merciless on their next opponent or 2!
It was funny in the 2002 "Perfect Season" Video, they talked about how they were merciless and reeled when they made the opponents cry.Boy did that hit the proverbial nail on the head.

I noticed it earlier than that; at times she seemed to be favoring one leg, but not all the time. I hope it's not real.
I definitely liked the offensive sets being run by Nika with Paige and Evina at the wings and CW at the 4. If Nika gets more accuracy and confidence with her 3s from the top of the key or at the sides it can make a huge difference. She is a tough player who knows how to make plays. It will be fun watching her grow but remember that there will be fits and starts. You have to make the mistakes first in order to learn from them. The key is her playing time. She is obviously performing well in practice and she cares a bunch. You don't have the kind of reaction she had on the bench a few games ago unless you are emotionally invested as well. 100% Nika.
Yeah, we only beat a top 20 team by 32. Way too nice.Boy did that hit the proverbial nail on the head. This team (most anyway) are just to nice, too easy going.

Nika is a work in progress, but the progress is coming along very nicely. I like what I am seeing. Let's not forget, she's only a freshman. Lots of time to bloom into that really, really good player. She could be the "lock-down" at some point in the future. Better sooner, rather than later
She’s fine. Imagine having a teammate in your class who might be one of the best players ever. Not fair to expect her to be different from most freshmen. Nika is having what looks like a normal progression, especially given her injury and a messed up schedule.Nika is a work in progress, but the progress is coming along very nicely.

Her shooting form looks a little better too. If she can be a decent 3 pt shooter (35%), I’d be content. Her ability to finish around the rim is still not great when there’s anyone in the lane but I see progress for sure.Nika is a work in progress, but the progress is coming along very nicely.

I don't know if Nika is a better passer than Anna or Evina, but all 3 of them are good.
