Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4857226, member: 12088"] I don’t read those numbers the same way I guess. 13/7 against UConn looks like a red flag to me. What sort of resistance could Edwards and Brady have posed to an effective big flanked by two other quality bigs? The real question mark is defense. She’s a good rim protector but too slow to guard much more than a few feet from the rim. That was clear last night. I think this was why Close took her out for much of the 4th and the OT. The other numbers are respectable but don’t leap off the page for me, especially having watched a few Colorado games. Miller and Vonleh don’t look like they can pose much of a challenge to Betts. They’re smaller and no quicker. Same for Fl St. The tOSU game may have been her best performance. I expect she’ll put up good numbers against that sort of opposition, but not against the top teams, certainly not against SC and maybe not even against Stanford if Brink is healthy. [/QUOTE]
