Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 3759687, member: 3535"] Well you double whammied me here. :):) I have to say I got this response and immediately I cracked up - not because of YOU - please don't take it that way-- I guess it's that I wasn't clear enough. :):) I said "in some variation" in my prior post to you referring to Evina and CWill. You took my post and disregarded "in some variation" (not your fault) and took it to mean if [B]both[/B] not only "struggled/hurt" but will be near bottom-of-the-barrel? I mean if CWill struggles it doesn't mean "she stinks." :) And if Evina is dealing with injury I didn't mean it to be she is "out" - instead just struggling a bit preventing her from being "a A/A force." But my comment of her "struggling" wasn't meant to suggest that she stinks either. Isn't it possible that the 2 might not be A/a's and yet still be "competent?" That's what I meant by "in some variation." I didn't mean it for you to take it that they would fall off a cliff. Isn't it possible that CWill and Evina won't be A/A's but still can be competent? And as a result, isn't it possible that if they are "just" competent then they would still be productive? And if they are productive - and wiht very good play from Paige and ONO- won't it free up AMak more? I think it MUCH MORE "improbable" that both Evina and CWill will be "bottom of the barrel" along with not getting very good contributions from Paige and ONO. To make that leap is an assumption of the worst thing possible. IS that how we're going to justify AMak from being "NOWHERE NEAR" an A/A? **So to your point of "keying on her" -- if they have four players on the Wooden List- I have knocked down 2 of them to being just competent -- - don't you expect both Paige and ONO to be very good? Add that with a 6'2 wing (i.e. she has SIZE ot get off her shot) that shoots tremendous, and competent 4 or 5 other players (Evina, CWill, Aubrey, Edwards and Nika)- you think "Big East" teams and even everyone else is going to look to JUST stop AMak? Isn't Paige getting in the lane and ONO able to score (from the passing of the many guards we have on this team) enough of a concern vs getting beat by AMak? ONO and Paige will probable be better than AMak. That's where the defense is going to key if Evina and CWill are just competent, right? ??? And if they ARE BETTER and the other players "mostly competent" - you think AMak is going to be "keyed on" in such manner to be shutdown "WITHOUT A DOUBT" thus preventing her from putting up "Honorable Mention A/A stats?"
