I think Slocum is a given because she is not really new and has been practicing with the team all year. People have remarked how well she played in those practices. While Pivec would certainly be able to handle the point this year, she is not on the same level with Slocum at the point position.  Slocum is too good to keep out of the lineup. I also thought, that discounting her defensive liabilities and often not keeping her head up, Goodman was more of a natural at point as well.

The problem with me and evaluating points is that my beginning of watching girls high school basketball was Chelsea Gray's team when she was a freshman. It sort of set unrealistically high standard for others to follow. She was the consummate assist first point guard even back then. On a team that usually scored around the 100 mark, she never  averaged more than 14 points per game when she could have easily scored double that if she chose too.  Sort of spoiled me.
