Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 3521619, member: 6620"] In regards to the Wings: - Agree on Satou and Harris. Both will be fine additions immediately and only get better. I like Alarie, but I'm wondering how all this fits together, with Sabally, KLS, Izzy Harrison and the like. And then there's Megan G. (hold that thought). Bella always struck me as a high-poster type, but isn't that where Sabally will roam? Are we thinking Della Donne-Emma here? If so, where's Katie Lou? - As for the Liberty posts, I think Kylee Shook -- although probably drafted a bit higher than projected -- offers some interesting options for the Liberty. On defense, she can block shots, particulary from the weak side, and slides pretty well. And her rebounding has come along each year, as have her outlet passes. When she was a frosh, she was a jump shooter and nothing else. But she works hard and gets up the court. And here's where I think she got chosen: she runs a good high screen and roll, which Sabrina specializes in. Shook -- and Sam Fuehring before here -- ran that against ND well. Sam would go to the rim only. Shook can roll inside, sideways or out deep. That could be nice option. Little bit of a "poor girl's" Lauren Cox. If you could give her a bit more of Sam toughness. bingo. (BTW, if you're looking for an Irish lesson/parallel here, I'm hoping Danielle Cosgrove goes in the same direction: even a little.) I referenced the Dallas Wings' training camp as being like the Finals of a young U.S.A. National team selection. How will all those parts work best, primarily with Arike, Satou and the point guard combination of MoJeff and Harris? The Liberty collection of players may not quite be at the overall level of players as the Wings, but they're also, in effect, starting pretty much around a core group, in this case, of guards: Sabrina, Kia and Asia. Lastly, could one of the Wings' posts end up being expendable after the tryouts -- err, pre-season training? If she can work the pick and roll with Sabrina, could Megan G. end up in Brooklyn? Two very smart and determined young players. [/QUOTE]
