Chong > Bias |
I hope your right tbh. Chong < Bias , But with the extension given and with chong missing the opportunity to showcase her talents one last time last night could end up hurting her. I hope not but its Fred & Bibb ive learned to expect anything.

Letting Chong go to her graduation could be a sign that her spot is secure, as was the case for Secret Weapon when she went to the Duke commencement in 2014. It would be easier to cut them and not have them come back.

Or it could be a sign of the opposite.
It's highly risky for any job applicant to skip a key interview -- like a preseason game -- especially when it's a job she's been dreaming about and competing for her whole life. If she's rational, such an applicant should only skip such a thing if she's sure she has the job or sure she doesn't.
Somehow I doubt that the Wings would have assured Chong that she already had made the final cuts, but I suppose anything's possible.
More noncommittally, she could have been told that missing the game and attending graduation wouldn't affect her roster chances either way. My life experience counsels not to believe such statement when there's vigorous, close competition for a job, and I would interpret any such statement by an employer as portending a negative outcome for my job chances. |

They've seen her plenty over the past two weeks and in the other game. Doubt one more game is going to make or break her career. Had she played Bias might have played fewer minutes and not had enough time to go 1-7 and make 3 turnovers (albeit with 5 assists).

Id hope chong sticks , im just not sold on bias . Watching the game Saturday night i was suprised she ended up with 5 assists and only 3 turnovers . From the eye test one would have thought the opposite . Skylar seems invested on mentoring her and stepping into conversations between her and Fred so it seems up in the air as to if she were to get cut. I wouldn't mind though

Can't judge Bias by one game either. What pedigree does Chong have?
