Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 3417297, member: 730"] "[B]Kyla has started 15 games and remains the best [S](most accurate)[/S] 3 point shooter, for the season[/B]." Here is his original post " [B]Kyla has started 15 games and remains the best 3 point shooter, for the season[/B]." That's what I responded to. He edited his original post today at 3:15, after my response and you have quoted his revised post. Who is being disingenuous here? I have no problem boosting a player. I just feel we have a right to disagree with statistical interpretations used in that effort. But I have another issue with a comment in your post: "[I]Yours however (Irwin rebounds flat-footed expecting the ball to come to her), is very subjective. NOT a stat. And false. Very different". [/I]My comment about rebounding was in another area of my post and I made no allusion to any player, especially Irwin. I take exception to this sort of thing (editing my post to suit your purpose). Here's my comment (in context): [I]I also have appreciated the work involved over 30 years to produce the beautiful basketball I have enjoyed watching all these years. [B]But when a player stands flat-footed as a rebounder, expecting balls to just land in their hands I don't ignore it.[/B] I can accept that this team isn't as efficient as other years but I have had a problem with what looked sometimes like a slow-motion version of historic UConn basketball. I accepted the missed shots and the missed passes but not the lazy passes and the failures to get back on defense. [/I]Where in that is any one player mentioned? I am tired of being lumped into a group and held responsible for every post by everyone you decide belongs in that group. Suggesting that Irwin isn't the best 3 pt shooter on the team is hardly "deriding". [/QUOTE]
