The Silent Assassin: Azzi Fudd

[BlueSkyGLW]

We have seen her play when healthy now for some time. I have been trying to listen to her being interviewed. Quiet and confident, she gives me the impression of a Silent Assassin.

Isn't that the nickname someone here gave to Caroline?

Didn't see that one....could be. Do we have two of them then? Not changing, that's the indelible impression Azzi gives on and off the court, to me anyway,

 

[Huskee11]

Nika is the talkative assassin.

 

[eebmg]

Azzi is the smiley stud.

 

[Jingo]

That name is taken already by Caroline .. keep up!

 

[Golden Husky]

C'mon, if it's anything, it's Azzassin.

 

[EdSaid]

Paige nicknamed Caroline the silent assassin before the season started Can only have one

 

[Bald Husky]

Nika is the talkative assassin.

No, she's "The Face"

 

[EdSaid]

Just call Azzi 20 points.

 

[hoopsfan22]

The Silent Assassin that "never misses" averages 11 points a game. I guess my definition is a little different.

 

[Zarathustra]

Since Paige instigated the name Silent Assassin for Caroline..... IMO I would not repeat it.
(For example, could the BONEYARD possibley have 2 "Buckets"?)

1st UCONN Women’s Silent Assassin = Carla Berube

I don't live in these boards or read every line except am visiting it more during this stretch run. The BY is not the only place to look for prime bones....

But to keep the peace, I am tempted to go with Golden Husky since I would have called Azzi the Silent Assassin coming in if I had been visiting these boards then. Best to ruminate for a while....

Paige and Azzi, Fire and Ice (ala Monroe and Frazier). Oops, can't be Ice, we got one of those coming in.

FYI Geno named Sue Bird (recently of commercial fame) the Syosset Assassin. I understand Sue really didn't care for that.

 

[Vancat]

Kickin' Azzi?

 

[Vancat]

PS she seems like a sweet kid.

I think both Azzi and Caroline are eager for the tournament to show what they can do. Azzi, after perhaps having a recent slump of missing more shots than normal, must want to show that she is one of the best shooters in the country and also is solid (actually, great) is all the areas of her game- defense, not turning it over, able to take it inside, the pull-up jumper, etc. And Caroline I think wants to get back and showcase her all-around scoring after the concussion knocked her back and forced her to miss time. I hope they really shine. I won't list the other players, but they must all be so psyched to get UConn back on the winner's podium!

Paige

 

[PvP]

I'd go with NAZZ-T

 

[drweo]

Why does she even need a nickname? She's a unique, one-off player. "Azzi" says it all, IMHO.

 

[schmendrick]

how 'bout, on April 3, "national champions"?

Azzi being Azzi like Paige being Paige..seems natural and something the Wbb world is going to know soon enough !!

 

[huskeynut]

Nika is the talkative assassin.

No. Nika is the Menace on the court. Ask Geno.

 

[LwrcasefaN]

Just call her...Ghost.
