Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 2143178, member: 3535"] I shudder everytime I hear this over-exaggeration negativity. There is no way no way no way if there are multiple crunch games that you can make a blanket statement of Walker over Lou. Tell me - did you ever watch Steve Kerr or John Paxson play? Why do you think they played in so many end games? How was there "rebounding, blacking, guarding, creating and stealing?" Lou can pass the ball and shoot -- her defense was good enough for UCONN to only lose one game all year. Lou is 6'3. Therefore all she needs is a pick to get off her own shot. There are three fundamentals in basketball- -- shoot, pass, rebound. Lou has 2 of the 3. Nowhere is there "create your own shot." You do need some of that but this UCONN does not NEED that. Therefore Geno is as likely to stay away from the fundamentals as a wcbb DIV 3 school is as likely to beat UCONN. I remember years ago arguing with htose that used to say Angel was greater than Maya because she can create her own shot more easily. The "creation of your own shot" does NOT make one player better than another. And when you are 6'3 like Lou is- you can easily get off shots with a simple offensive option invented many moons ago called "a pick." That is why Maya over the course of her college career was always more superior than Angel. Inevitably Angel's shot was suspect and game-over-game she was forced to force the ball in traffic despite her superiority of the creation of her own shot. [/QUOTE]
