Joyner Holmes looks much bigger than I remember. Is she serious about succeeding in basketball, or is that just her adult body type?

Not sure if not funny or even funnier with the context of their off-court relationship.

Is it just me or are refs favoring the Sun? The Dallas players seem to be getting called for pretty minimal contact but the Sun players can even knock the Wings when they're dribbling so that they lose the ball, and nothing is called.

Bad calls or not it was going to be hard for the Wings to beat the Sun back-to-back. They did not come ready to play at all.

Satou needs to have her starting job back on Tuesday. KT is doing more than Izzy is right now, but McGowan is a no-go to start. Satou is better at PF. Harris needs more mins at the PG spot. The ball needs to move

Definitely funnier Laughing

With the Thomases, Hiedeman, and DB all on the same team it's a game of musical chairs Laughing

The Sun got their revenge on the Wings in a big way Shocked I'm not sure how successful Hiedeman will be in the long run of running the team this season, so far so good though. The biggest surprise for me on the Sun has been Carrington. Coming out of college I did not expect her to be productive.

I'm really surprised at lil T's lack of production. Do you think it's due to the system being run by the Wings?

That shouldn't be a big issue: post = catch under the rim - in the basket.

I've said from the jump that she looks heavy & slower than her Indy days. She's not a terrible player - but she looks terrible out there.

Wished they had kept U. Thompson.

I'm hoping we see a diff her after the All-Star break. Hopefully the Player development guy is as good as they say. 3 post players need to spend time with him.

Not sure how it looks on tv, but in person she looks as thou she's added a ton of muscle, especially in her legs & thighs which does make her seem alot slower while still keeping up the pace with everyone else.

I don't know, maybe there is still so much for her to learn in this new system that it's just going to take some time for her to get in where she fits in, plus VJ said on multiple occasions that she has thrown a ton of information at them to learn, so I'm willing to give T-Mac the time she needs to do whatever because I think it was a gamble Bibb made that will pay off in the long run!

Something needs to shake with her by & after the All-star break. This is the last year of her rookie scale contract. She can't clunk around and get paid. But with the Wings.....

I think that's a reasonable amount of time to see results! What if things don't change, what would you suggest Bibb does then?

B. Jones from Conn should be a free agent, right? I think she can still be her same self on a new team.


Give U. Thompson a chance - never should've let her go
