I'm also not sure but what Mack would beat out Hebard if it comes down to either or... I think she's demonstrably better defensively, so if that's what Wade is looking for... |
I will not say who will make the squad or who won't make the squad anymore. I will say that if Wade is truly serious about winning the championship this season he should retain the best players. Court production should be placed at the highest value over name recognition or popularity.

The bosses seem to like Mack.

Is one of them smoking?
Hard to imagine for a top athlete.

Bridget Pettis used to tell stories about games in the Italian League, when teammates would smoke in the locker room during halftime.

I used to know professional dancers who smoked. They thought it kept their weight down.

Bummer, man...I was hoping this would be the year she finally was slotted where she could be most effective.
Still stuck with Dolson. Will that 30 lb. weight loss be accompanied by greater fitness overall - more hustle and fewer fouls? Hope spring eternal, but I kinda doubt it.

Still behind too many players in the depth chart to be effective._________________

Also Gabby played a similar role with Sopron overseas. She handled the ball quite a bit

The Los Angeles Sparks have acquired Gabby Williams from the Chicago Sky in exchange for Stephanie Watts and the rights to Leonie Fiebich. A contract extension for Williams is imminent.

IOW: for peanuts
and LA gets out of the embarrassment of taking Watts in the first round.

Definitely sold themselves short unless it was just a salary dump. I think the roster has potential. Should end up something like:
Vandersloot/Heal
Quigley/Brown
Deshields/Copper
Parker/Stevens
Dolson/Ndour/Hebard or Mack(I go Hebard unless Mack has greatly advanced her skills at camp)
(Prince or Boyd if they have the money)
Definitely should make playoffs, could make a run depending on injuries and hot streaks

Not peanuts!
Watts is still gonna get waived on Thursday, right? Just by Chicago and not LA? |
Why make the trade unless Wade likes Watts enough to keep her? You might as well just hold on to Williams's rights until next year and see what you can get in sign-and-trade. Wade looks completely ridiculous for making this deal unless Watts sticks on the roster. |

Crash and Burn. This will be the sound of the Chicago team at the end of the season. The exact same sound of a jet falling out of the sky.
