Was it Elvis Costello who had a sang/album -- This year Model? Here at the Boneyard there are posters who insist on dumping, once a game/month on a player. Recently, it was Kyla-- why is she starting (perhaps still on the team)? Now, we have moved to CW-- she can only make layups, only an idiot cannot see that her shots are off even before they are released. She had better get it together, because there are better players on the way.
What knaws at me isn't so much the 'positive' or 'negative' shout-out to ones favorite player of the month, as it is a lack of understanding of the discipline of Uconn's offense.For example, Crystal has the greenlight to shoot anywhere, but CW is asked to play closer to the basket and rebound more. When Anna M is on the floor she is given a wider range than Irwin, etc. If I am allowed to pick my own model it would be-- why doesn't Walker move more quickly, drive more and play in traffic more; more like CW and Anna M seem willing to do? And as far as these High School players who are scoring 30 and 50 points a game-- well, they are , just, High School players scoring .... Probably meaningless for what they can(not) do at the next level. This of xourse is not an argument for people not holding fast to their own fantasies.
