The Poole should be option 1 Gray and option 2 someone else. It's clear that unless something unexpected happens, Gray is the only player deserving the award.

At this point there doesn't even seem to be 5 rookies worthy of being named to the All Rookie team. I only have four: Gray, Davis, Talbot & Whitcomb. Of course this will give the league an excuse to put Plum on the team.

Chong hasn't been spectacular but very sturdy in the toughest position for a rookie.

Laimbeer will probably be lobbying for Allen, but he's the biggest homer.

Sykes hasn't been too bad. Better than Plum?

As long as Gray and Talbot average at least 20 minutes/game and play enough games to qualify they will remain on the list.

Here's the rookies in order of ampg.
I suspect Allen's minutes to creep down especially when Prince comes back and when Laimbeer starts tightening his rotation in anticipation of the playoffs.
Chong's minutes could creep up as Williams gains confidence in her. Hard to say though. If her minutes go up that means another perimeter player's minutes have to go down, and things get crowded when Powers returns. Maybe 15 min will be optimal for her.

Sykes' minutes are on the low side, but Whitcomb's are even lower.

I still say the league will make sure Plum gets on the All-Rookie regardless of her numbers.

no doubt plum is struggling. but she is playing in a bad team. if the league wants to make her good, get her to seattle. that's one team she can grow and flourish.

if she can sell jerseys and tickets, the storm is not only place.

No. 1 picks almost always go to bad teams (except in cases of shenanigans). Sometimes the No. 1 pick is good enough to make the team less bad.

But in those cases they give the reigns to that No.1 and have her lead the team in good times and bad. She seems restricted by the coach and the rotations

Great players are able to make an impact regardless of minutes. If Seattle wants Plum that bad then they should have to pony up something pretty substantial. #1 pick for a #1. Anything less than that, SASS should not consider.

Laughing Storm are not going to give you Steward or Loyd for Plum. There isnt even a 1% chance

Stars should say no thanks to the storm's trash ( kml,Swords) Laughing
Think Stars are better off just keeping Lady Plum or asking for seattle's 2018 first rounder.

Seattle's first round pick for Plum seems like the right trade if Seattle see potential in Plum that is not being realized. Plum can develop slowly in Seattle, depending on where they fall SA can add Wilson and someone or Deshields and someone both of which would be a better fit in SA with Jefferson and McBride.

Im oke with giving up our first round pick for Plum because we are going to make the playoffs so it will be lower but i have tbh that i have no clue about next years draft players. I dont watch college ball

Barring no injuries, next year's draft is shaping up to be pretty good. Some playoff bound teams this year will still be able to end up with a pretty good player next year. Undoubtedly some teams will screw the pooch and let some pretty good players slip further down than expected.

You don't want to give up your first round pick next year.

SEA didn't seem interested in Plum this year. Gave up #6 for Swords. No trade rumors for Plum out of Seattle. What changes now?

Maybe because they can get her cheaper now then before the draft
