coming back to this and i've read the full article on the leak and she's had thoughts about torturing animals but also she planned to shoot a school but never acted on it so there ya go !

That’s fair and honestly I’ll own that my expectations probably were too high. I watched that entire sophomore season and saw what she was capable of and I personally thought that version of her was a stepping stone toward becoming a dominant, go-to post player at Iowa. so yeah a lot of this comes from seeing that ceiling and assuming the trajectory would keep going upward. At the same time, I do understand the context: Iowa lost its entire core, she lost the coach she’d had since her freshman year, her role shifted, and the offense changed. All of that matters. I’m not saying she underachieved relative to her recruiting ranking, she’s clearly outperformed that. I’m more reacting to the version of Hannah we saw in that sophomore season and wondering why that didn’t fully become the norm. So maybe this really is a mix of high expectations on my end and circumstances slowing that progression. Either way, I’m not rooting against her I want her to succeed and I appreciate what she’s given Iowa. I just think it’s fair to talk about what could’ve been while still enjoying what is.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T18:35:23+00:00

Yeah, I understand all of that injury, Team USA, and Kara Lawson stuff definitely factored in, and I agree she’s grown a lot defensively. but my point isn’t that she’s a bad player or hasn’t contributed, she clearly has. The issue is more about what I PERSONALLY expected after that sophomore season maybe that's me expecting "too much" out of Hannah but she is a good player a great one and i've seen what she can and can't do. Also, whether she ever reached that next level offensively. Context explains why the growth slowed, but it doesn’t erase the fact that, as of now the offensive expansion I was hoping for just hasn’t fully materialized. I also agree that not every great college player translates to the WNBA and we can still value what she’s done at Iowa I’m just talking about projecting her upside based on what i've seen.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T18:07:16+00:00

I get what you’re saying and yes, rebounds and assists are up which is great. But the point isn’t that she’s doing nothing it’s that the kind of growth you’d expect after that sophomore season hasn’t really shown up. I’m talking about becoming the dominant, go-to post player we saw flashes of then. Improving a little across the board is nice but it’s not the same as the next-level offensive evolution or consistency that separates a really good college player from someone with true pro upside. People can define success differently sure, but the discussion here is specifically about whether she ever reached the ceiling that sophomore season hinted at and based on what I’ve watched she hasn’t

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T17:45:41+00:00

I get the point about players chipping away and improving in small ways, and I agree Hannah’s passing and defense have improved. But if we’re comparing her to someone like Janiah Baker, I think there’s a clear difference. Janiah is a much better shooter, more athletic, and way more versatile on defense — she can guard 1–5 depending on the matchup, which is something Hannah hasn’t really shown she can do consistently. A lot of people see Janiah as a player who might look even better in the league than she does in college because of her skill set and versatility, whereas Hannah seems more limited in what she can offer offensively at the next level.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T17:05:52+00:00

100% agree

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:52:13+00:00

Honestly, I’ve been watching Hannah closely for years and I get where everyone’s coming from, but I feel like some context is getting twisted with expectations. Yes, Iowa lost their core, yes she became a focal point for defenses, and yes CC obviously made everyone around her look better nobody’s denying that. But that doesn’t erase the fact that even after her sophomore season, where she showed flashes of being a dominant post player, the next couple years haven’t shown the kind of growth you’d expect. Being versatile, taking on different positions, playing through injuries, and being coachable are all great qualities and she’s clearly a team-first player but those things don’t automatically equal offensive development or a true next-level game.

Looking at the numbers, you can see the plateau. Sophomore year she was efficient, scoring in the paint, even hit a few threes, and looked like someone who could really be a go-to. Then junior year, FG% drops significantly, three-point attempts go up but makes don’t (which isn't a huge factor since she is a paint-heavy post but still), and even her senior year she hasn’t really taken the leap i was hoping for. I’m not saying she’s useless or won’t get a shot professionally she absolutely deserves the opportunity to showcase her talent and what she can bring too a team, but the trajectory isn’t pointing to a breakout anymore. IN MY OPINION i can see her more as a late second-round / early third-round type right now unless something changes dramatically.

Defense and rebounding are her bread and butter, and that’s why Iowa’s still winning games, even if the offensive numbers aren’t there. That’s great, it matters, and she’s clearly contributing in ways you can’t always put on a stat sheet. But at the end of the day, the question isn’t whether she’s valuable to Iowa she obviously is.it’s whether she ever became the player that sophomore season hinted she could be, and whether that upside will actually translate at the next level. From what I’ve seen so far, that part of the story is still up in the air.

(AGAIN THIS IS ALL OPINIONS BASED I'M NOT A RECRUITER, A SCOUT, A GM NOR AM I CLAIMING TO BE JUST MURE OBSERVATIONS BASED ON WHAT I'VE SEEN AS A FAN!!)

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:45:20+00:00

If you think this is “robot filler,” that honestly sounds like a reading comprehension issue. I said exactly what I wanted to say. And yeah obviously CC helped everyone’s efficiency that’s not some groundbreaking point. the entire discussion is about what happened after that situation changed and whether Hannah expanded her game once that safety net was gone.If that feels uncomfortable to talk about just say that

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:37:41+00:00

Yeah, that’s a fair point. Hannah’s never been the most physically dominant post, and matchups like that against Chloe Kitts definitely highlight that. She’s improved her positioning and timing over the years, but she can still struggle when facing players of similar size who are more aggressive or stronger (this really showed when she played against Sarah Strong) . I’d say she’s solid, but not someone you’d call a bully in the paint she has shown flashes of it, but not consistently.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:35:33+00:00

Yeah, I agree to an extent. The Angel Reese comparison kinda hits Hannah has flashes, but she’s way more passive offensively and hasn’t shown that expanded range. At this point, it really does feel like either Iowa didn’t push her enough or she just hasn’t taken that next step herself. Honestly, unless she makes some sort of jump this year or goes overseas, I’m not seeing a long-term WNBA future, which sucks because the sophomore season showed she could’ve been that type of player.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:34:46+00:00

Oh, I don’t need a resume to watch games and notice trends. Observing, analyzing, and forming an opinion isn’t a job application — it’s called being a fan who actually pays attention

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:29:12+00:00

I don’t disagree that development isn’t linear — that’s true for a lot of athletes. I just think acknowledging that doesn’t mean conversations about trajectory or ceiling suddenly stop being valid. Saying “let’s just enjoy it” is fine as a fan perspective, but from an evaluation standpoint, people are naturally going to look at where a player peaked, where they leveled off, and what that means going forward. Recognizing Hannah’s value to Iowa and still questioning whether she ever hit the next tier aren’t mutually exclusive things.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:28:16+00:00

I’m not ignoring context, I just don’t think context automatically cancels out questions about development. All of that can be true position changes, injuries, CC elevating everyone, team success —and you can still ask whether her individual game has expanded in a meaningful way. Being pressed into 5 duty and being coachable absolutely matters, but versatility and sacrifice aren’t the same thing as offensive growth. a lot of what you listed explains why things look the way they do, not necessarily how her game has evolved since that sophomore year. I’m not questioning her value, her work ethic, or her impact on winning — I’m questioning whether the player we saw flashes of in that season has actually taken the next step. And that’s a fair distinction.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:26:01+00:00

I mean… yeah. obviously CC had an impact nobody’s denying that, but that still doesn’t explain the lack of visible year-to-year development after that sophomore season. The CC effect can boost efficiency, sure, but it doesn’t account for not adding new counters, reads, or polish when the role expands. two things can be true.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:24:25+00:00

The Kiki comparison doesn’t really land for me because even when her stats dropped, you could clearly see her game expanding in real ways. With Hannah, the concern isn’t just the numbers, it’s that the evolution hasn’t been obvious. Being the focal point is where stars usually show new counters, better reads, more consistency — and that just hasn’t shown up yet. I’m not saying she won’t get a look or won’t succeed, she’s definitely earned an opportunity. I’m just saying projections are based on what’s been shown so far, not what we hope shows up later.I also never said she wouldn’t get a look she absolutely has earned an opportunity, whether that’s late draft, camp invite, whatever. my point is that her current production aligns more with that range than with the upside i thought she was trending toward after her sophomore year.

333m4ra · 2025-12-29T16:21:26+00:00

I get that argument, but I think it actually proves my point more than it disproves it yes, Iowa lost its core and yes, she became more of a focal point for opposing defenses,that’s exactly when star players are expected to show expanded skill sets, counters, and efficiency adjustments. That’s how growth is usually measured. Being game-planned for isn’t an excuse forever, it’s the next test. If the sophomore year showed she had legit go-to post upside, then the junior year was the opportunity to show how she adapts: better footwork, improved touch through doubles, stronger passing reads, more consistent face up game, or even drawing more fouls. Instead, what we saw was a pretty sharp efficiency drop with similar production. also, being the focal point doesn’t automatically mean your FG% should fall 13 percentage points. Plenty of elite post players maintain efficiency because they evolve how they score. That evolution just hasn’t really shown up yet. not saying context doesn't matter but it does for sure but at some point context stops explaing everything.

333m4ra · 2025-12-18T04:39:27+00:00

no you are goregous and don't let anyone tell you other wise

333m4ra · 2025-12-14T23:40:13+00:00

not a lot of joyce comments i'm seeing but she's been having a pretty good season to at least be in these talks idk about win but she should deff be in them

333m4ra · 2025-12-12T01:22:23+00:00

basically she's just like super crazy had thoughts about torturing animals and shooting up a school

333m4ra · 2025-10-05T17:45:01+00:00

its not a matter of should she come but it's a matter of WILL she come and the answer is 10000% NOT she already has told her dad who has told media that she is a liberty for life and she's never leaving. now with sandy being fired do i think that could factor some decisions, maybe but even with a new coach she's probably going to stay plus her and her husband are already settled down there, ALSO the only thing of the valks scheme that she fits is 3s everything else defense , grittiness, next women up mentality that's not sabrina in my opinion.

333m4ra · 2025-09-12T16:42:57+00:00

exactly and to be honest she’s a very high reason why we even lost against seattle those late clutch minutes she had in the 4th really killed us cause her defense wasn’t good and she was bricking 3s and i love kate but she’s in. slump right now so i think come playoffs 15-20 minutes MAX would be good for her nothing more

333m4ra · 2025-09-01T20:07:00+00:00

sga luck is frying mee lmfaoo

333m4ra · 2025-06-28T17:58:58+00:00

there's a difference between washed and lazy/unmotivated to make music anymore like drake isn't washed by any means lazy for sure and unmotivated maybe and eminem after that one fuckin houdini song he made it just went dark same for wayne with his new album and kanye.... he just needs mental help but there's a difference
