Message: [QUOTE="BBallF, post: 5115779, member: 10435"] I also think that many BYers don't remember how great an all around player Azzi is. It's easy to focus, as you said, on the offensive game when it is so overwhelmingly remarkable. Just look at Paige. Do fans ordinarily say what a great defensive player she is? Nope. They look at the offense because it is actually stunning. What did she do last year when playing the 4 position? Defense was unreal and I think she is one of the best defenders the program has ever had. I love watching her live. Her anticipation on defense is unlike any I can recall. Even if Azzi were the best defender iin the league, it would still be about that incredible range , accuracy, lightning release and versatile moves. So I totally get the point which is well taken.
