I share most of your sentiments. But not this one. That quote is not a public statement of Paige’s, nor does it express any serious sentiment of hers. It’s a humorous attribution to her. I don’t know where you got this one from, but Geno has jokingly said she’s said stuff like this, for example after her first game back after her sophomore knee injury. Around the same time he also laughingly said in a presser “Of course Paige will have to compete for playing time when she comes back.” None of that was meant seriously.
In the second point, yes Geno has tended to play a shorter rotation in March. But a few of us have speculated that Geno’s style maybe ready to evolve. It’s just idle speculation, and doesn’t require to be refuted. Similarly, every year half the BY dreams of deep rotations and constant full court pressing defenses. None of this is realistic and none of it requires refuting.
But if you’re in the mood for refuting something, here’s my serious prediction for next season’s rotations
- November 10
- December 12
- January 12
- February 11
- March 10
- April 9
This would be a departure from the past few years, but not an extreme change.
