Message: [QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 3947016, member: 199"] Olivia and Dorka spent most of their time playing fundamentally different positions - Ono has been and will continue being the center at both ends of the floor. Dorka has been primarily a stretch four at both ends of the floor. She may have played defensively against Oliva, but when they needed beef in the post her fellow transfer Patty was called. They both like more finesse, but ONO has accepted the post defensive position more than Dorka. The stats are amazingly compatible with two things standing out to me - Dorka shoots a lot more threes (but not very efficiently) and Liv is a much better passer with a significantly better A/TO (Liv after freshman year has been well above 1.0, Dorka has never been close to that.) Uconn will be better having both on the team, and Dorka may get as many minutes in tandem with Liv as without Liv on the floor. When Liv isn't on the floor, I expect Aaliyah will be playing center. I also do not see Dorka as a plug and play transfer - she is going have to work hard to get minutes on offense and especially on defense. [/QUOTE]
