Makes very little sense for Cambage to be resentful. It's a whole new ownership group and coaching staff from when she played for Tulsa. Only three players remain from the 2013 team (Diggins, Johnson, Paris).

I wasn't referring to Liz....
1.Glory Johnson ?.....Glory has complained in the very resent past about not being fully appreciated.Cambage makes one trip to dallas,and wings management rolls out the red carpet.
2.I also remember Diggins making a dismissive comment about Cambage not showing up to play for tulsa.
3.The wings organization took Cambage on a tour of dallas,did any of the wing players tag along besides Phillips ?
4.Has any wings player posted a picture,or welcomed Cambage to dallas on social media ?...Liz was standing outside the wings locker room.You would think a couple of the wing players would show Cambage some social media love.
5.There seems to be very little interaction between Cambage and the rest of the wings players.

How can you question if your not sure ? The picture was when she was using her phone , we didnt get too see the interaction as the players entered the locker room or afterwards . Just the snippetts of information given via articles. This is not an issue in dallas at all guys . Cambage is being welcomed with open arms by every teammate , they have there goals in sight and they know she can help contribute drastically. Its about basketball and production not personal feelings. If thats the case we have already experienced that with Glory Johnson so putting the cloud over cambage also at this time during the season is not what we need .

It's almost as if the dallas wings are dividing into 3 groups:
1.Glory Johnson
2.Cambage/Phillips
3.The rest of the team.

That second group hasn't been getting much playing time.

All of this Cambage in Dallas talk is very misleading. If she's going to play, just come out and say it. Maybe Johnson wants out of Dallas? Johnson to Chicago for the rights to Coates? Cambage joins and Plaisance becomes the starting PF by default.
PG: Diggins/Chong
SG: Gray/Davis
SF: Christmas/Powers/Thornton
PF: Plaisance/Akhator
C: Cambage/Paris/Lewis
If Coates can play at some point, maybe Paris gets traded for a pick in 2018?

| The reason why I brought up the interactions,or lack thereof,between Cambage/wing players is because I went on the Twitter/instagram/Facebook accounts of Diggins,Cambage,Johnson,Powers and Christmas.There was no mention of Cambage.Not even a retweet.

Coates is slow and will be coming off a year without playing , giving up glory for her would not be sufficient. Throw in Coates & 2018 1st Rounder then were in business !! Glory has high value , coates hasnt proved a thing at this level. Would be pretty dumb on Freds part but then again thats never stopped him so you never know. That 1st Rounder better be a constant if were talking Glory Trades though. Paris for Coates straight up though would be great for both teams !

It's funny, Cambage wants to be a campaigner against racism and yet she's the fucking Great White Whale of Shock/Wings basketball. It's amazing how many inches of text have been wasted on a player who's played bits of two seasons in the WNBA on rosters that won a combined 14 games.
I can understand the desperation of a franchise that hasn't been good since they were in Detroit, but the pursuit of a spoiled brat with a wildly inflated opinion of herself is a little pathetic. I think I'd have told her that if she ever wanted to show up and play, that'd be great. But until then, stay home and play with your gigantic ego. |

Chicago would be crazy to make a Coates for Paris trade.A #2 pick for a 29 year old limited player coming off a injury ?

But Glory is perceived as a cancer. While she is very talented, she is flaky I wouldn't build a team around her. I think the Wings would gladly trade Coates for GloJo. Addition by subtraction. Let her be someone else's problem.

Diggins-Smith did like a video Cambage posted, they also follow each other on IG. |

Im just a little shook up about this team this year and the wild personalities they have. The question you asked is very very possible but as a Die hard wings fan im trying to stay optimistic about the Cambage situation and hope that shes grown up a bit. We dont have room for another knucklehead on this squad.
