You assume that the WNBA is a true competitive league when in fact it is little more than an exhibition league, where star players are placed in franchises deemed to be in markets with growth potential. 
   I grew up a couple of miles from Mohegan Sun. Montville CT has to be the absolute worst site in all of pro sports. For someone in their 20's it's a social desert. They are there only because of the UConn base. 
   Back in the old days when the draft lottery was held behind closed doors, (a sure sign that games are being played) The Sun always seemed to get the last lottery pick.

If the Sun were truly committed to winning then they should have told Chiney to pound sand. The league wants it's stars in big markets. The Sun should have held the league hostage, demanding a high 1st round pick for her or else kiss her goodby. The pick they did get will produce nothing. Maybe a decent reserve. Basically they gave her away for nothing. But then they have been doing that right along. When has a true star ever played 3 years in Montville before a trade?
