Bills: Scary movies, freaked-out friends among Bills' pleasures
Continued from page 13
could,” Bills said. “By the end of the
season, I was pretty worn out, but I
don’t think I showed it one day. That’s
something that helps my teammates
out because if they don’t see me show
ing it, then they push as hard as Ido.”
That determination and those re
sults didn’t go unnoticed by her team
mates or coaches.
“They showed that they appreciated
(my efforts) by nominating me,” Bills
said. “I was most valuable player of
our team and I continue to get respect
from each and every one of them day
in and day out.”
Bills also earned Honorable Mention
honors from the Pacific-10 Conference
last season and has picked up right
where she left off, averaging more
points per game, working with a better
shooting percentage and blocking

Even now, Smith said Bills can re
vive the team when its on the verge of
breaking down.
“She’s what we need when the go
ing gets tough and she can do what the
team needs her to do to win. She has a
‘team-first’ mentality,” Smith said. “She
commands the ball offensively and we
rely on her — she’s a focus for us. ”
Opposing teams will testify that Bills
is a focus for them as well.
“By being the second leading scorer
on the team, coaches have to look at
me and try to adjust,” said Bills, who’s
faced a double-team or two in her day.
She said she likes being a spotlight
player of another team’s advanced
scouting report.
“Drea’s a very intelligent basketball
player,” Smith said, adding that Bills is
perfectly comfortable playing defense

outside against a point guard if she has
to. “She’s a player that coaches dream
about coaching. The intangibles that
Drea does sometimes go unnoticed.”
Bills comes across as a quiet per
son who just takes care of business,
but Kraayeveld described her as car
ing and supportive.
“She’s kind of quiet, but she’s got a
goofy side and a funny side,”
Kraayeveld said. "She definitely makes
her presence known up on the court. ”
Off the court, Bills enjoys watching
scary movies and watching her friends
freak out.
“I think I’m a thrill-seeker,” she said.
“I would probably be the one that lives
to the end and tries to save other peo
ple and make it to the end of the movie
just because that’s my personality. ”
And that’s also how she operates on
the court — unfazed and reliable.
Hopefully, the Ducks won’t be
frightened by the Arizona schools this
weekend, when Bills and teammates
Kraayeveld and Come Mizusawa will
be recognized during Oregon’s final
homestand of the season. Bills will
look to add to her 1,121 career points
and 767 career rebounds and maybe
take the first three-point field goal at
tempt of her career before the whistle
blows one last time at Mac Court and
she clocks out.
“A three-pointer — that would be
nice,” Bills said. “One for one.”
Smith agrees — as long as it’s
well executed.
“She knows her strengths and
plays to those every game,” Smith
said. “She has a very keen sense of
right and wrong.”
