Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 3835565, member: 3535"] What a great story! Congrats to your daughter. Awesome story! What a great analogy! What your daughter has are the basic basketball fundamental skills it seems: [B]pass, shoot, and dribble. [/B]These skills are basic and will always be of high value. Even at the highest levels - it's not the quickest or fastest players. If you have the basic fundamentals - - as long as your weaknesses aren't too extreme - - you will always be a quality player. If she does have all 3 basic basketball fundamental skills - think of how awesome that is. If one night her shot is off- she could still dribble (get fouled) and pass on that given night and still can be a force. If she only had 1 skill then she'd be so much easier to stop. I love fundamentals. I'd love your daughter's game I think and I love Nika's game. By the way, what "disparaging comments" did you read regarding Nika? :) Were they similar to the "disparaging comments" that Meg Culmo made at 1:02 left in the 1st quarter when she said to paraphrase "[B]Hey you know Drake has already realized - hey okay I can get around Nika Muhl . . ." [/B]as we saw in that moment Drake commit a turnover? While 20 seconds later we saw Nika stick a 3? :) We see more and more that Nika has the 3 basic fundamental skills which will only help UCONN a great deal going forward just as your daughter helped her team a great deal, - - and yet neither are "Michael Jordan/LeBron James!" I am just soooooooooo thrilled with this freshmen class. [/QUOTE]
