Message: [QUOTE="hoophuskee, post: 5075623, member: 3535"] There is no way Jana is going to be playing "Wing." Unless your definition is 4 out and 1 in maybe with Patterson or Griffin. The definition of a Wing is a perimeter type that sits outside mostly. When you speak of "limiting" and you call Jana a "wing" that is exactly what you are doing is "limiting her. And when a player is called a center- where has it even been written that centers are not allowed to shoot from the outside? Geno had once said that if he had Griner he would have also had her take outside shots more than she did at Baylor. He did the same with Dolson. They were Centers that can also shoot from the Outside. No reason why Jana can't be this. Jana can't limit herself to being just a Wing (and she wou;ldn't be a Wing - she would still be the Center or maybe "a Stretch 4." But no way "A Wing.") If she is a Wing you can picture her flying down the left or right side on a fastbreak vs top tier teams? She has to be able to punish smaller players inside. And really work on punishing anyone inside not just smaller players is most ideal. Otherwise she allows smaller players to guard her whenever her shot is off. The problem with many “Bigs” is that they don’t want to be Bigs. [/QUOTE]
