Message: [QUOTE="Blue Huskie, post: 4717686, member: 1178"] As for the DT Olympic question. This is a team sport and I wouldn't discount the PR value USA Basketball would place on her inclusion. The media loves these stories of consecutive appearances and gold medals. She certainly wouldn't hurt the team as they have plenty of bodies. Also this is a situation where she only has to play very limited minutes. The reason (for the most part) she isn't playing her best basketball lately is because she has played too many minutes for her age. As you recall Seattle managed Sue Bird's minutes very well and very carefully in her last few seasons. Unfortunately the Mercury's questionable management team is not very good at such things.
