Has there ever been a wider +/- gap between two teammates?

| Perhaps VJ finally figured out a lineup...But we will see if she actually keeps using it.

| The warning signs were there the last two games. It caught up to us tonight. Tina is clearly worn out and there just isn't enough support elsewhere. That and finding points in key situations without a PG is not easy. And you go back to the mental mistakes and rebounding. The former could be avoided with better PG play. Oh well. I'm very disappointed but the team is just too dependent on outworking the opponent. Most nights they do and sometimes still lose. On a night when they're severely outworked forget it.

Nice team win for the Stars! They definitely were not playing with folks tonight!
Sadly, NY got outworked.

| A loss against the Stars? At this point, NY is not even worth talking about as a contender. Bad coach. Bad GM. Great players that the coach doesn't know what to do with. Bad team fromt office. Bad owners. They shoulda made a trade with Seattle. Vaughn for Swords back. Lol

The person playing the three or SF as you call it, is not automatically a forward, as much as you would like for that to be so. If you want to change the rules in the fantasy game, make a motion to do so but heckling in game threads is IMO a bit over the top. I don't play Zellous as a F because, according to her team site, she is a G but she plays that position much more of the time than does McBride. Give it a rest or make a motion to change the rules.

This is where Wright was good at stabilizing the team from the PG position. She made the right decisions late in games and was a clutch shooter. It is what it is and you have to move on, get younger, etc. But we miss that type of presence in a player who was good at facilitating.
The wild peaks and valleys are just excruciating at times. No telling in any game what will happen. With Wright as a leader and facilitator the stability was generally there. I miss it.

Two things:
-Of late SAS is a better offensive team with the three guard lineup. It showed tonight.
-If there's an issue with the fantasy game rules can that part of the discussion please be taken to that thread?
