>What's good, folks? Figured I'd throw up a season joint for >the 4 of us to talk shit in. Season opener coming up. What's >that, Youtube TV? WNBA Season Pass...24.98 for the whole >season?
LMAO! We subscribed to it too. The little lady wanted to watch some of the Athletes Unlimited hoops games and they came with the package. You're right though, $25 is an absolute steal.
>Eastern Conference: >Atlanta Dream: Protect Renee Montgomery at all costs. She has >been super positive for that team and the league in general. >Things are turning around. Three top 15 picks in this year's >draft are signed.
Atlanta has been bad for too long. I like Renee so I hope she can turn things around here.
>Chicago Sky: James Wade looking around like the Fresh Prince >'how come he don't want me?' meme. Ace, Quigs, Sloot gone. >Kahleah is in full control.
KFC plus they got Courtney Williams who can flat out score. I like Emma Meeseman too. They got lots of holes to fill but I don't think they'll be completely awful.
>Connecticut Sun: JJ gone, Curt Miller jetted to LA. They >were so good...just kept running into Vegas. They got a good >core remaining, though. Dewanna and Alyssa gotta step up.
I think their window has closed. It's too bad because they had a great squad. Bonner is one of my favorites to watch.
>Indiana Fever: Well, you got Ms. Boston...that's a start. >Gonna be lean times, though.
They've been terrible for a loooong time. They gotta start making things happen.
>NY Liberty: Yall know how I feel about Jonquel Jones, so I'll >try not to gush. That would be a HUGE get, anywhere, >anytime...but adding Stewie AND CVS (I just made that up) is >overkill. I don't see how this team doesn't win 25-30 games.
LOL! I like CVS! I'mma start using that. This team is a juggernaut. Only thing that can stop them is bad chemistry. I got my eye on Han Xu too. Word on the street is that she actually grew another inch or 2.
>Washington Mystics: EDD says this is the strongest she's been >in a long time. She had a moment in the playoffs where she >had it all going. She's 33, but she's got a lot of hoops left >if her body holds up.
EDD has legit game but she cannot stay healthy. She's on that Zion Williamson.
>Western Conference: >Dallas Wings: Arike gets some help with Natash Howard coming >in. Gonna be a long season, though. Diamond DeShileds and >Lou Lopez Senechal set to miss major time with knee injuries.
I'm a big Diamnd DeShields fan but injuries are taking big chunks out of her career. Arike is still a killer,
>Las Vegas Aces: Breaking: Really good team adds really good >players. Candace Parker and Alysha Clark come into a LOADED >locker room. The Dearica stuff is a bummer. For her part, >Becky says she in no way ever bullied Dearica while she was >pregnant. Neither her suspension nor the 2025 draft pick loss >will affect them on the court.
They may be the only squad that can hang with NY. And I agree, the Dearica stuff is a real letdown. I don't think they'll let it affect them on the court though. We'll have to see.
>Los Angeles Sparks: Curt Miller left the Sun, where it seemed >he just couldn't get over the hump, to go back to the first >WNBA org he ever worked for. He says he is a team builder. >He damn well better be. Nneka, Chiney, the aforementioned >Hamby and Katie Lou Samuelson give him a decent start.
I think Miller is one of the better coaches in the league. I think he's gonna have LA looking up.
>Minnesota Lynx: Sylvia gone. SALUTE! Napheesa back for a >full season and Diamond Miller was drafted #2 out of Maryland. > Gonna be some lean times in Minny.
Yeah, they're in serious rebuild mode.
>Phoenix Mercury: BRITT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >Apparantly DT been working her ass off and is in amazing >condition. Cool. No Skylar as she will be out indefinitely >with the birth of her 2nd child. Mercury are guard heavy, >though. A lot of meat on the bone, there.
Glad to see BG back. I keep thinking DT is gonna fall off but she keeps bringing it. old girl is timeless.
>Seattle Storm: It's a new day, breh! (c)Tupac in Above the >Rim >Sue gone. Stewie gone. I do love, love, love the Ezi Mags >and Kia Nurse signings. Kia was a dawg before she tore her >ACL and missed an entire season.
Co-sign this. I'm a Kia Nurse fan too (she looks like she could be Drake's sister). I hope she can rise above the injuries and show us something.
