This could be a fun starting line up in Atl
Carter
Riq. Williams
McCoughtry
Charles
Cambage
and all of the free agents have a relationship with the coach, the GM or both.

They already have Parker at near max for two more years guaranteed. Doesn’t make much sense to have her coming off the bench.
Am I the only one that likes Billings as a starter? I think she’s earned it.
If McCoughtry goes elsewhere, I could see DeShields sliding into that spot, since it sounds like agent says she wants a starting spot. I suppose you could start DeShields at SG, but I think Hayes deserves to stay if she wants.

I like Liz a lot but I don't see Washington or NY wanting to disrupt what they've got to take her on. She's high risk, medium reward. NY could be interesting but I just don't see her fitting well with that roster. |
Especially now with Sandy running NY. She’s more than familiar with Liz & her antics. And then there’s that little matter of Liz basically trashing the Opals & who’s their hc? None other than Sandy. Yeah, I agree with you, NY is probably not a landing spot for Liz. And it may not be her choice.

Dolson is now meeting with Seattle too! So maybe Bird will enjoy that replacement! |
Uhh I don’t think that would be an incentive for Bird 😂😂😂

What is "checking the market" even mean for Stewart? Any team in the league will pay her the absolute max, no questions asked. Does Seattle thing she's gonna shop around and find out teams only want to offer her the vet minimum?

But that's just it. They didn't give her room to check the market a bit. They left her unsigned with no options if that "checking the market" makes her want to sign elsewhere. They may think she is just looking a bit, but she can do whatever she wants.
It's mind-boggling. When you have the best player in the world, you don't take any chances. |
You risk losing her for nothing, but what if coring her would've pissed her off? Maybe then you make it more likely she asks out. I agree it's going to look like a major error if they lose arguably the best player in the world for nothing when they could've protected her, but there's often more to these decisions that we don't know about.
Also always the chance that she pulls a Bonner even if she wants out, demanding the supermax but elsewhere. Then Seattle would get the sign-and-trade that might've been forced anyway even if they cored her. |
