Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5107376, member: 12088"] I’ve only seen highlights of Toomey, but several entire games of Somfai. My sense, based on admittedly imperfect evidence, is that Lara is in no way a consolation prize. She’s a very mobile big with good post moves and decent midrange shooting and is a very capable defender. All this seems to be at least comparable to what I saw in Toomey. One last thing: Lara is a big 6’4” and in the FIBA games this summer she had to contend with the 7’ Chinese player and did a respectable job. Australia defeated China and Lara’s efforts against a much taller player were an important element in that game. Lara’s mobility against a slower big was key. [/QUOTE]
