If Stocks is going to have trouble getting Williams minutes, maybe they'd be better off trading her? |
What value would she have in your opinion Toad ? Maybe Gabby to NY for Stokes ? Sounds about fair ?

Possibly. But Williams seems like she'd do well in Phoenix. Maybe Williams for their 1st rounder in 2019?

That could be a good trade , If PHX thinks they will be at the bottom of the 1st round .

Harper has been playing point guard FWIW and IMO not really that well. You can tell it's not her natural position. Stocks is constantly pulling her aside and fussing at her not to pick up her dribble, look for the roller, etc.

Well at least shes producing something i guess. I dont see Harper as a PG neither , just a smaller version of Gabby with a bit more polished offensive game.

I will forever be scratching my head over the Sky taking Williams over Stevens (19 & 9 in her debut, and waaaaay better than anyone they currently have at the 4). Stupid to double up on one position when you could have filled holes at two.
It doesn't matter who starts with Dolson. They will be the worst in the league at their position.
Incredibly bad judgement.

Considering how poorly Copper played, are we to assume DeShields will be the starting SF come next weekend?

DeShields is going to be at least a week behind most every other newcomer learning Stock’s system. If you are saying that’s an advantage for DeShields, that doesn’t say much about Stock’s system.
Oh well, I guess it’s about the long term outlook for Chicago.

Don't worry, Stevens went to a team with really not much structure or team defense which benefitted her. Thats the way the cookie crumbles.

View from the Sky: Gabby Williams' WNBA rookie diary
http://abc7chicago.com/sports/view-from-the-sky-gabby-williams-wnba-rookie-diary/3443832/
Quote: |
Kia Nurse, Azura Stevens and I have all gotten "welcomed" to the league. Mine was in practice the other day. Coach [Amber] Stocks got on me when we were doing a shell defense drill. She said, "You think you can guard Angel McCoughtry or Maya Moore like that?"
That's when I was like, "Man, that's really who I might have to guard pretty soon." My coaches at UConn would say things like that, but it was always hypothetical.
Now it's real. |
