Dallas fans do you like D Miller enough to consider 3 and 5 for 2? |
Minnesota doesn’t need more picks. They should probably tempt Dunn with a big package to get #1.

I don't think there's a big package that can tempt Lin Dunn, but I guess you can try

Assuming Boston stays in the draft, I don't think Minnesota could offer anything that would even tempt Indiana without including Collier. |

The Wings have bumped up Siegrist to 6'2" on their roster listing. It's possible only one of those first rounders makes the roster. Seems a better idea would be to draft athleticism and hope for skill to develop, not to draft skill and hope athleticism develops.

Nah, just draft for skill.
Then add an inch to their height, 2 inches to their wingspan, 4 inches to their vertical, and knock half a second off their sprint time. Bam! Athleticism developed with just a few keystrokes.

Depends on whether it's preferable for players repeatedly to miss both outside shots and layups athletically or skillfully.
For all their difficulties, I for unknown reasons somewhat like the Wings. If they get some really good shooters, maybe they'll have a better shot.
I've much enjoyed watching Siegrist, Senechal, Joens and Meyers in college, and hope some or all can stick around as stick-it-through-the-hoop-ers. |

Probably you are joking, but the problem for the skilled players is mostly in being able to get a good shot off or to stop the athletic players from being able to get a good shot off.

So, how do you explain the sucess of skilled and intelligent players like Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird, Larry Bird and countless others like them. These players are and were not considered athletic players according to your description or even their's.

Hey Bibb watch the first 12 mins of this Video Angel Reese and Flaujae both named our team as a place they want to be drafted too. Get that damn 2024 pick back asap!! Angel also states she will be at the draft next year most likely around the 19:45 mark. She’s eligible even though LSU tried to call her a sophomore this year smh as Angel correct at the the 56:55 min mark “she’s about to be a senior” Same as Olivia miles but with her injury she may just exhaust her time at ND.

The 2024 pick they traded away was a second-rounder. I don't think you need to worry about Angel Reese or Olivia Miles being available at that choice, whichever team is making it. |

Thanks richy I went to sleep after that trade never cared to get details . Either way I want 2025 first round back as well. Ship collier off if a suitor has finally warmed up to her *cough cough Reeve* as the past attempts say otherwise.

I think that was a comment more on filling the same need with every draft pick, except for Soares.
