So many funny comments in this thread. 😄
Sarah Strong is not "a post" - she can play there in a small ball lineup, but that is not (and never will be) her natural position.
Kelis has shown a strong willingness to shoot the ball. She has not shown a strong ability to make shots (other than Heckel-esque twisting, diving, hail mary, scoop shots). Putting her at SG is laughable with so many other options already on the roster.
Jana can shoot jumpers, but unless she learns how to hold onto the ball, stop picking up her first foul at the scorers table, and make 2-foot bunnies, she will be back to her 10 minutes of garbage time. Geno should make her carry a basketball from now until next October and have random people take swipes at it until she figures it out.
People forget Morgan C was getting regular minutes two seasons ago. She's like a transfer and should be in the rotation at forward.
Vukosa is this year's "she's the best center we've ever had and her jersey deserves to be hung in the rafters" over-hyped freshman (or in the case of Serah W, transfer). She's not a PF, although she does have good range. She's a post - a freshman post - she and Jana and Gandy can fight over back-up minutes next year.
We need:
- A REAL post player who is a defensive stopper and take-no-prisoners rebounder. Dorka 2.0 would be fantastic.
- A rotational SG/SF with 40%+ 3-point range to supplement Allie and Ash (who'd better fix her shooting issues FAST).
- A backup PF for depth.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
