Message: [QUOTE="RockyMTblue2, post: 3632567, member: 250"] In a recent poll in the WNBA Sue Bird ran away with the Coach category, something like 9 to 1. I think it is fair to say that means she can evaluate talent. So this is an interesting prognostication from Sue: "If Sabrina and Paige are the ones to take the reins, the game's going to be in great hands and my work here is done," Bird told Insider. " "The 5-foot-9 Syosset, New York, native says the next generation of WNBA stars are primed to push the point guard position to new heights over the course of their careers the same way she, Staley, and Whalen did. New York Liberty rookie Sabrina Ionescu — who was this year's No. 1 overall draft pick after four incredible years with the Oregon Ducks — is a player Bird has identified as a literal game-changer. And though its still very premature, she says [URL='https://www.insider.com/video-paige-bueckers-gatorade-athlete-of-year-sue-bird-2020-7']Paige Bueckers — the incoming UConn Huskies superstar[/URL] whom Bird helped surprise with the [URL='https://www.insider.com/video-paige-bueckers-gatorade-athlete-of-year-sue-bird-2020-7']esteemed Gatorade Athlete of the Year award[/URL] — may very well fit the bill as well. " "You're seeing it in Sabrina, who does even more when you think about her rebounding ability," Bird said. "When you watch Paige play, the first thing is that Paige just has a flair for the game and a swag to her. She can impact in so many different ways at that point guard spot. That's how I hopefully see players like myself, Lindsay Whalen, how we left our mark on that position." Good article.
