Let's face it. Their coaching got a lot worse in the off season.
I suspect they would be horrible, rudderless, and chaotic even if Catchings was still playing. |
I'm one of the people who tends to agree with you on Pokey, but I also wasn't massively impressed by the job Steph White did. So I don't think the drop-off is necessarily that huge. |

I liked White prior to last year. Last year thought she had already moved on

| Achonwa was the second highest scorer on the team and the only one who shot over 50% (5-7) and that was in only 13 minutes |
Achonwa is a talented offensive player. Her per minute numbers have always been very good.
Kelly Krauskopf is probably the best GM in league history, but the Dupree trade made no sense at all. Have to wonder how much input Pokey had, given her track record of similarly poor trades.

Kelly said that she thinks that Dupree is a top 4 PF in this league..
