Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 2275214, member: 3535"] If what you're saying is the case that she doesn't have handle - then it doesn't appear to me offensively she is much of a 2/3. The team's offense has better weapons than running picks for Meg in which she doesn't have much handle to then bust her defender off the dribble. Whiel Lou doesn't bust pleyrs muhc off the dribble - teams tend to put much smaller players on her and as a result with her jump shot she can hit but is also a threat to run further off the pick for 3's. All Walker can do is shoot a 2 off of a pick. The game now is more high-powered and the three is a weapon. Unless ofc Walker can shoot 60% or better off of picks? I doubt it. Her shot isn't that automatic. And if she can't shoot from 3, when she is in the game anytime she catches the ball from the perimeter, she doesn't help getting the ball to our elite players. I haven't seen her enough- but anyhow my initial take is that she has enough handle to be like a high post player - a Gabby. I'd prefer to have three point shooters surrounding Walker so she can make plays 15 feet or so and in-- rather than letting her be a 2/3 in which UCONN will only get "rewarded" by Walker 2's rather than other options of very good shooters from 3.
