Official Women's Basketball Thread - MARCH MADNESS IS NEAR..

[Big Boss]

Sun needed shooting badly. They PAWGing now

I like that

 

[Ironman]

So for the Chi fans this was the real reason

 

[Georgiamuscle]

Even if Chicago gets worse, they’re guaranteed to make the offs over Atlanta regardless. Unless Rhyne and Jordin come back and everyone stays healthy, they ain’t winning another game this year

 

[Mars]

Is Banham really a better shooter than Mabry or does she get more open looks thanks to Thomas?.....Mabry will now get a ton of open looks.


I also don't like Jefferson as the PG.....She is undersized and not a good post-passer.

 

[CHICAGO]

OYENWERE MADE THIS MABREY TRADE POSSIBLE...

THEY STARTED PLAYING HER RECENTLY
AND SHE RESPONDED WITH
9 PTS ON 65/67/80 SPLITS
OVER HER LAST 4 GAMES ...

NOW THEY HAVE A MONTH
TO GET HER INTEGRATED INTO
A STARTING ROLE.

JEFFERSON WAS SET TO COME
BACK FROM INJURY THIS WEEK
SO SHE HAS A MONTH TO GET
HEALTHY AND ACCLIMATED ALSO...

BRINGING IN BANHAM
MEANS WITH CAN CUT
DANA EVANS UGLY ASS
OR PERMANENTLY BENCH HER.

Yeah, I'm warming on the trade after thinking about it a bit more. Not a win now move, but can be interesting for the future depending on the other moves we make.

Not seeing the 26 pick swap being helpful though, but guess we'll see. Can these players pass to the bigs and not have dumb turnovers?

Michaela needs to step up big time

 

[The Unknown Hype]

ANGEL WON PLAYER
OF THE WEEK
NOT PLAYER OF THE MONTH.

I KNOW ITS CONFUSING
CONSIDERING SHE PLAYED
5 GAMES IN THAT 11 DAY STRETCH
WHICH WON HER THE "WEEKLY" HONORS...

WHILE PLAYER OF THE MONTH
IS ABOUT TO BE DECIDED IN
6 GAMES WITHIN THE MONTH.

16.8 & 14 ON 44%FG/40%3P
WERE ANGELS NUMBERS THAT "WEEK"...

THE FEVER BEAT NY
BUT LOST TO THE MYSTICS AT HOME.
CLARK IS A 3P SPECIALIST
SHOOTING 28% FROM THE 3 IN JULY



​

lol now the assist leader is a 3pt specialist

 

[Klawstrider]

Banham has been a lethal shooter since college; I like the move for Chicago. Sun also needed to do something because they get sonned whenever they play the Liberty or Vegas. Mabrey is streaky but she'll prob only need to be a 3rd option for them.

Jefferson is a legit PG. Think the trade gave both teams what they needed.

The sun might be a lottery team next year they can’t keep most of their players unless the cap go up

 

[CHICAGO]

Banham is a better shooter but that’s all. She was barely playable on a team that desperately needed shooting. It might work but I don’t like it for Chicago personally. They needed to get a legit starter back at pg and imo they did not

JEFFERSON IS A STARTER.
BANHAM WILL BE THE BACK UP

[CHICAGO]

YOU SAY THIS AS IF
SHE ISNT AN UPGRADE
FROM LINDSEY ALLEN.

SKY JUST GOT ALLEN
AND EVANS OUTTA HERE
AND THEY MIGHT MAKE ANOTHER MOVE.

​

I thought Ty Harris was the starter. When was the last time Jefferson started? Phoenix?

PHX WAS JUST LAST SEASON....

SHE SIGNED A 3 YR 425K DEAL
WITH THE SUN THIS SEASON.

HARRIS WAS SUPPOSED
TO BE THE BACK UP.

JEFFERSON HAS BEEN
SIDELINED WITH AN ANKLE
INJURY THIS SEASON.

SHE MISSED PRE SEASON
AND THEY TRIED TO LOAD
MANAGE HER INTO RECOVERY...

SHE ONLY PLAYED 9 GMS/ 6 MIN PER
AND EVENTUALLY
GOT SURGERY LAST MONTH.

SHE SHOULD BE READY TO GO
WHEN THE BREAK IS OVER.

If Jefferson is healthy, both Allen and Evans are probably out the door. Banham is just career backup.
