Just thinking about Biles' 16.2 at Trials a couple of weeks ago, with a hop. Then I re-watched Maroney's team final vault from 2012. You can't really compare the score (Maroney's was 16.233) because the Amanar was scored out of 16.5 thne. But I can't believe Biles only got .1 off in Ex when Maroney got .266 off for what I felt was a much better vault.
I'm not knocking Simone - she is awesome and I think/hope she'll win vault gold in Rio. But I hear a lot of talk about how she's the best vaulter ever, and it gives me pause, since I think Maroney's vault was better.
Thoughts?
