Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 5291710, member: 6620"] Same store, but think there's a case of apples and oranges: - Loyd -- who had only spent her entire career there -- wanted out because of a culture of administrative intimidation. The Storm's own investigation -- surprise, surprise -- didn't find this to be the case but traded her to a Western rival. Why is it not a surprise that the alleged incident took place between the Aces (where Ms. Loyd currently plays) and a coach from the Storm. On the same staff that was investigated? And Ms. Quinn says we all learn and take it forward. Yeah, right. - The Sonics -- if I have the time order right -- picked up Li Yeuru in a trade with Sparks and probably intended here to be a prime backup in the paint. Then, in no short order, Olivia Miles decides to go pro -- but in college -- and doesn't enter the draft; thereby having the Storm pick up Ms. Malonga, who just happens to play the same position. So, will the Storm respect this request and ship her out? Don't hear about these kinds of trades often, but is there a player that the Storm might want to get for either this season and/or would be able to hold onto in 2026? Here's a thought: Ezi Magbegor is an unrestricted free agent (like so many players), while Li Yeuru is an ERFA (exclusive rights). Magbegor seems to have hit a Plateau-like season. Malonga - Magbegor look like the same player from a functional standpoint at this time in their careers. Perhaps the Storm could see what deal would help most. Yeuru can play....look at her work for the Chinese National Team. But does anyone want to put the time into it in a condensed season? Well, at least she's not accusing the coaching staff of intimidation....:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
