Connecticut just needs to give it up and stop trying to force the W or the team to stay in Connecticut. Be grateful you have a world class college sports program with uber elite hoops teams, not to mention a plethora of other elite sports teams, and an up and coming football program. And BTW...

I thought this was great. Obviously Flaujae, Juju, and Azzi should all be confident. But the mic drop moment... Azzi "Real quick tho... who just won the last national championship?" LOL. I think that sort of swagger is foreign to Azzi, but she's learning to wear it really well!!

We will see. Dallas has less talent than Connecticut or Chicago, and basically is even with them, so I'd say it's the Chicago and Connecticut coaches who are sub par.

Wow so happy for CW. Hopefully once she starts to show her stuff, she will stick around longer. Maybe part of the problem was sort of "out of sight, out of mind"...

I think you nailed it with one exception - I'd swap Morgan and Ice. Ice was a starter last season until the USC game. Then she started coming off the bench in favor of Jana. Until injuries, they were fairly even - but in general, Morgan was off the bench before Ice was (IIRC). I think a healthy...

You would think with the roster that Seattle has (all stars, Olympians), plus with the addition of Sykes, that they would be a top 4 team. Instead they are barely hanging on for a playoff spot. Never been a fan of Quinn as a coach, and maybe the finger needs to be pointed at her. She seems to be...

Everyone who practices well and stays out of the doghouse (or gets the injury bug) will eat. I look forward to seeing how Geno manages it this season. It will go a long way for future recruiting to show what UConn will do with a stacked roster.

Contract negotiations are underway, and I think most of the players have contracts expiring this year and next year. I'm not sure if part of the collective bargaining includes scratching all the current contracts, which would effectively make all players free agents after this season. The only...

I love me some K-9, but I really have a hard time seeing KK NOT starting. If Kayleigh turns out to be as good as Paige or Sue, then I could see them swapping, but barring that, KK should start, and IMHO will start the entire season (barring an injury).

So happy to see Pheesa back and at 100%. During the game, the MVP was discussed and I think a bunch of players closed the gap big time, even if Phee still is seen as the leader. They specifically mentioned Wilson, Thomas, and Mitchell. I think as long as Phee pretty much matches what Wilson...

I have NO idea why Williams has been completely overlooked in the W. Has she been blackballed for some reason? There are at least 10 players in the league I'd put behind CW, and maybe more. And just take Berger as an example (since she was mentioned by @jerz2atl) - and she's a starter...

Ok I'm officially on the bandwagon. Paige for 1st team all-WNBA!!!

Still 8 or 9 games left. If Paige scores 30+ in every game, she will be on the 1st team (or should be!)!!! And it's more than scoring PPG. Paige is right up there but look at her assists, steals, even rebounds for a guard, efficiency, +/-, etc. Add to that she's easily the best player on the...

Now that she's here, we can start speculating again about how good she could be, and where she will fit, in the roster, as a starter, key reserve, or reserve... Side note - I'm just super happy she's on campus. I'll admit the worry-wart in me feared she might not make it... edited for some...

Most outstanding player vs. Most valuable player. MOP would be for the best player, period. MVP is for the most valuable to her team..
