This isn't the Dream. This is a nightmare.

17-4 Sky with 2:49 left in 1st

seems like dos Santos will be the back-up PF with Boyette at center. Parker becomes the 5th post.

of course this is Chicago's starters vs. Atlanta's wannabes.

I'd say it's mostly their starters.
Cortijo, Hayes, Burdick, Den Mother, and Williams

DMJ, you're 41 and still considered a wannabe!

Dos Santos is still an undersized center and not a PF.

well even with Lyttle and Angel/LoriAnn this team is baaaad. And DMJ really doesn't belong in the league any longer. Bless her sunshine and move on into coaching or something else. (sorry GEF)

Simmons could take that last spot over Holmes or Johnson. Of course, there's the possibility that both DMJ & Hodges' contracts are guaranteed for this season.

also, McKinney seems to be playing well for the Sky. Maybe she's their 5th post instead of Parker?

Atlanta is down 18 points at the half and Johnson is a +1

Would like to see more minutes for Imani. Also, is Turner even there for Chicago? I know she is a long shot. But to not have played in any games at all isn't good.

Turner played yesterday for Wisla Krakow. She should be on her way to Chicago soon.

Can't tell much from a box score, but it looks like Ajavon, Hodges and even DMJ are shooting better than the rooks. I'd rather keep the rooks but if they aren't going to be any better than those 3 I guess I'd keep the vets and maybe pick up someone off waivers like we did last year with Budick. Holmes 0-6 - not exactly what I was hoping for.

Does look like Williams is playing a decent game again tonight. Simmons does seem to be making the most of her minutes. She always was quick and a good athlete- but out of control. (Then again, that sort of describes the Dream a lot of times anyway.)

At Hodges and DMJ padding their stats in a 20+ point late 4th quarter blowout.

I guess when you have played that many years you know what to do in garbage time. Very Happy

1-7 now, but I'm impressed with the 8 assists. If the shot ain't falling, help in other ways.
