A'ja Wilson as the face of the WNBA is laughable. She's an idiot
Easy there, hoss. Maybe a few on the practice squad pro bono so they don’t count against the cap.
Don't forget: In Game 2, Wheeler knocked "eye poker" Carrington on her ass.
Sheryl Swoopes is trending on Twitter....LOL
This is post #15,730 in a WNBA thread.
A good question for all of us:
A good question for all of us:
Allergies kicked up a little bit at the end. Bring back Mitchell, Temi, and dantas!
After that 1-8 start, they finished a very respectable 19-12.
I do think this team is close to making the "final 4." It will be interesting to see what they do in the offseason to make that happen.
The more I think about it, after resigning KM.
Priority #2 should be a defensive enforcer.
A player that if you cheap shot CC you can expect to be taken out. Job is to make teams think twice on fouling CC and set hard screens. Hockey employs goons to keep the peace and protect star players, and Caitlin has a bodyguard off the court but needs protection on it since refs have failed miserably.
I “thought” that would be Boston or Smith coming into the year. But Boston was too talented and Smith really didn’t find the role.
She won me over the last half of the year with her energy on the bench. You could tell she was all in and she started to play her role as a breather for CC much better. Hard to justify her contract price without getting creative like you suggested with endorsements. Maybe CC could let the city know they need to show her some love with endorsements. Similar to what Vegas is doing for their team.
Smith wouldn't touch her girlfriend, Carrington....LOL
So I guess the enforcer has to be single or straight....
Her new nickname, "The Bloody Weapon"! Trademark this ASAP.
She’ll be fine. She’s already expressed her white guilt. I believe I watched the actual video in this forum?
Doesn't matter who voted for Angel Reese. Caitlin is the clear winner. She has been since Day 1. The rest that followed in the media was just to stir the pot. And I'm sure the person who voted for Angel wants his/her name out there - more clicks on that person's social media pages - you got to try to stay relevant, even if you come off as objectively ridiculous. Here's a thought bubble - If Angel could shoot better from around the basket, how many rebounds would she have averaged this year? Her double - double numbers are the only thing that kept her in the conversation among some people during the year, and a product of her inability to score at the basket. Take that away and she's not even in the conversation. That's a bit ironic.
Done with that.
Congrats to Caitlin. Now on to MVPs and championships.

Something like this would be cool to reproduce in a larger poster size and have it mounted on cardboard to fashion a sign for ... Geno, ofc.
Add a "HEY GENO:" at the top and bring it to an away UConn game. Maybe add "SUCK IT PAL" at the bottom.
(Let's organize a flashmob!!! I bet by dint of our paleness - most of us I'm guessing - we'd still be tagged as racists despite the target, lol)
Hell yeah!
With this kind of unity you kinda feel like saying "Damn the torpedoes ... full speed ahead!"
This young group alone could still improve quite a bit. But ... probably not enough to win it all.
Man, that was so dang sweet. That's something you couldn't find - nor would you want to, lol - in the men's game.
I love all the different personalities. Absolutely love Temi and her flamboyance ("Catherine darling" lol) coupled with her accent, and the reservedness of Grace too. The predictable sweetness of Aliyah, and the rather surprising (to me, at least) sweetness of Kelsey. Didn't know KM could smile that nicely, and it was so genuine too.
Good vibes. The WNBA best try to keep this under wraps. This love and good will might be contagious!!! 🤪
Dunn said that she will be working hard to get players in Free Agency to fit around Clark. Players who can defend and run in transition. Sides was hailed for her defensive prowess, even though the team finished at or near the bottom in a couple of defensive categories. Also, Sides wanting to play slow and get the ball into the post to Boston and Smith didn't always work out in the half court. Getting "coach" to buy into Dunn's philosophy of playing with pace, up tempo, is a must if she's staying. And, right now it looks that she is staying.
Dogs and cats, living together. Mass hysteria!
Real end of days stuff. Like the end of the WNBA as it’s been known.
She’s such a selfish player. Hogging all the assists for herself.
I'm late in responding to this, but I really hope the posters thinking that CC has any kind of chance of going to the LPGA were not serious.
I thought of how Aliyah shrieked at the driving range (Topgolf) when Caitlin hit, "She's good at everything!"
But I doubt even Aliyah feared for losing Caitlin to the LPGA.
I don't think any assumptions can be made until the wnba season is over
I think she's gone. When a new team president steps in, GMs and coaches usually follow. If I'm Krauskopf, I dont want to risk my career and another prime year of CC on if Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dunn can figure out jobs they've never held before until the Fever.
This says the new COO is also going to be the GM. We will see where that puts Sides...

I'm glad they're making changes. But the woman they just named to COO and GM has no experience being a GM according to their press release. She has a ton of experience working on revenue generation which is great. But that side of the house is different from the one that has to identify, sign, and manage the on the court talent and the salary cap. Dunn did a horrible job of the talent and salary cap management and only did a good job drafting when she had the #1 pick, which is why the Fever are stuck for another year with too many bad contracts sitting on the bench.This says the new COO is also going to be the GM.

Perhaps. Frankly, I would be surprised if they didn't loop Caitlin in on the process, identifying collegiate targets she would like to play with, and free agents where they and Caitlin want to get a band together to form a super team. We are really only talking a player to maybe a few players per year. I think the bigger issues are in-game coaching and coaching up defense.

Getting rid of Dunn is at least a sign that things are changing.
I really am starting to believe Sides won't be on the bench next season.
Most mgmt wants their own people calling shots.
