This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Fair Enough, But the Different Goes Both Ways, As You Know by dillon77
Brianna Turner was out year & a half+ when she came back and many noted her "burst" speed wasn't quite the same. In fact, articles about her in the Aussie League noted that her speed and quickness were up to speed...nearly two years+ later.
Jessica Shepard chose to not play this year and she's a year past her ACL injury.
So, we can agree everyone is different. Could we have Nat Marshall on the court for practice? Sure. Will we have the Nat we've seen tapes of? ??? That's the point I was raising. Having had knives stuck in my knee multiple times in my 20's, I'm aware of varying stages of recovery (God bless, none since then.)
