toad455 · Posted: 09/13/15 6:14 pm ::: Connecticut Sun 2016

since we started an Atlanta Dream 2016, might as well continue.

Odds are they won't get Stewart, so who does Connecticut draft?? A guard??

PG: JThomas/Gray
SG: Bentley/draft pick
SF: AThomas/Hightower/Stricklen
PF: C. Ogwumike/Little/Pederson
C: Bone/Williams

I would put Hightower at SG.

CON doesn't really need much other than to get and stay healthy.
They'll most likely take best available....maybe consider trade because they're young enough.
If they get #1, they'll keep Stewart and send Pedersen packing (finally).

I would think Gray should eventually replace Thomas at PG, though the Sun announcers seem to say she needs to work on her conditioning issues. Hightower makes sense as Bentley's back up depending how well her recovery goes.

Best player available make sense for them. Seems like Griffin will come back to the Sun as well. They look like a good team to me. Health and too much youth is the main problem.

If they do not get the pick.....I'd agree, draft the best possible player out there.....but they might not make the team. They'd have to prove to be a better option than Lacy, Pederson, Griffin or Faris. It will be the last person off the bench more than likely.

PG-JThomas/C Gray
SG- Alex/Ali Hightower
SF- AThomas/Stricklen/
PF-Chiney O/Little
C- KBone/Williams

That leaves TWO roster spots between draft pick/Pederson/Lacy/Faris and Griffin.

I wouldn't settle for this though...I'd offer up San Antonio (if they get the pick but their biggest need would be replacing Sophia...The Sun don't have a #4 to give up....Except for Little and I don't see a team taking her at this stage of her career for such a coveted draft pick. I would offer up Alyssa Thomas, Alison Hightower and our first round pick though. Then they can sign Kelsey Griffin if they wanted to.

c-Bone/Williams
PF- Chiney/Camille/Griffin
SF- Stewie/Strick/Pederson or Lacy
SG- Alex/draft pick
PG- JThomas/C Gray

Spanish LFB Round 3 best performance: Chelsea Gray

Gray is a better playmaker than Thomas, who is a combo guard who likes to shoot. When paired in a backcourt with Alex Bentley, that can be problematic, especially with an improving Bone and a returning Chiney up front.

Gray is also a better outside shooter than Thomas.

Its happened before. Jasmine started ahead of Alex in 2013 in Atlanta, and Shoni in 2014, and in 2015 Chelsea. Being a vet who is in shape, and plays hard d covers up the fact that she's not much of shooter or playmaker. I think Gray looks like a much better long term prospect.

That's the most puzzling part of Jasmine's game - she shoots a lot more than she should but by all accounts she's a good team player, and coachable. I have to think the coaches are ok with the number of shots she takes per game.

markinct · Posted: 10/17/15 10:07 am :::

I think she (Jasmine Thomas) felt that she needed to take those shots in certain circumstances....especially when AT25 and Alex went out with injury. With Chiney coming back, I'm sure that mentality will change. I think AT25 will probably be coming off the bench, highly energized coming in for Camille Who will probably start at the 3 spot....they could flip flop but I don't see AT being better at this stage of her game. All I can say is...I can't wait for April/May....

Maybe they'll pull a NYL and re-hire Anne. Cool

The new trend...

I think they should hire Carolyn Peck! Get her off the airways...

Personally, I'm glad neither Rizz nor (and especially) GG won't be the coach.

Ross is a meh, imo. I thought Smith might have been a good idea.

If it's true that Smith would not be interested in the job (not saying that's a given), I wonder why that would be. Connecticut is a young team that will likely be on the rise. They're going to have quite a few top 5 draft choices on the squad along with a #1 overall in Chiney. There's a quite a bit to build with here.
