Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 4898649, member: 199"] So ... just some data on others: Sue Bird missed most of her freshman year, but generally freshman don't get a ton of minutes and also tend to have their worst assist/min numbers and minutes/game so she missed her worst statistical games probably. For Sue 118, 3321 min, games played 28.1 min/game. (585 assists) Nika just played her 123rd game, and 3451st minute, for 28.1 min/game. (632 assists) Moriah played 155 games, 4130 minutes, for 26.7 min/game. (659 assists) DT played 144 games, 4218 minutes and 29.3 min/game. (648 assists) As far as teammates - Paige and Aaliyah are sharp shooters and have been for their careers, and Lou was a nice replacement for the injured Paige for a year. And with all the injuries and changing lineups, I don't think I remember a time when Uconn has had such a PG dominated offense, with Nika being the constant. The other players on the floor are still good passers, but for example when Sue made the single season record at 231 that Nika blew away last year, Diana was also breaking the 200 assist mark. (And I have never watched any UConn team that didn't seem to blow 50% of their layups. It just goes with the territory of WCBB! :eek:) Love Nika, who I never thought should be taken out of the starting lineup, even before the injuries came crashing down. Heart and soul of the team and seems to have been from the day she arrived. And she may well break the record at Gampel which would be sweet! [/QUOTE]
