Crystal Dangerfield Waived By Lynx

Do you really think Geno/CD win 11 NC without Bird, Taurasi, Tina, Maya, Stewie - who will all be Hall of Famers?
did he have those 3 players at the same time in their prime for 8 years?
 
Ive always said Reeve did not like Dangerfield bc of her size. After winning ROY in the bubble the very next season she went to find a replacement an older vet without any offensive regiment who just dribbles the ball 20 of the 24 sec shot clock as proof.

Evina has-been waived today.

Looks like it.
Then again, I believe that it was Minnesota that got the # 8 and # 13
draft picks for next year when the Las Vegas Aces " traded up" for
those slots in this year's draft ( players that were later waived!)

Fact 1. You know darn well UConn WBB career is 4 years, except for extra Covid.

Fact. You know darn well Geno/CD do not win 11 NC without the future HOF talent they had. Geno/CD know it.

Fact. After the UConn recent loss in the 2022 NCAA championship, Geno said that UConn had the more talented team in 10 of his 11 NC. Those teams had POY and/or AA.

Complaining about the Minnesota coach winning 4 WNBA titles with future HOF is ridiculous - unless you are going to complain about Geno/CD winning NC with future HOF and multiple AA.

Anyone hating on the Minnesota coach because Dangerfield was waived needs to look in the mirror.

Basketball is a sport. WNBA is a business. NCAA is a business. Waives/Cuts and Transfers are part of the businesses. Does not mean anyone has to like it, of course.
 
I think this is a league that is struggling to manage their last collective bargaining agreement - which was seen as a big win for players - no one anticipated all the ramifications of the combination of hard caps and max contracts. The max contracts eat away at that cap quickly so teams struggle to fit 11 players under the cap let alone 12.

This is going become even more of a nightmare once the league starts enforcing the overseas commitment rules and half a roster of veterans may be declared ineligible.
That’s probably going to end up helping the situation by creating more spots.

If the WNBA is run as a totally independent business entity without some of the financial backings from the NBA, would it have survived all these years?

Doubt it. Supply and Demand problem for the WNBA. People are not obligated to pay to watch the WNBA.

Instead of WNBA players or executives expecting more financial assistance from the NBA, maybe the WNBA should figure out how to attract investors, competent owners, and thousands more paying customers.

1999 USA soccer women's national team figured out how to attract people to pay to watch the World Cup tournament. Prior to that 1999 WWC, not many were watching the USA WNT.
 
Not familiar with the WNBA rules but could many of these cuts be a tactic to be able to resign the player at a lower salary? Sad - many of these maneuvers appear to over just a few thousand bucks.

Is that a serious question?
 
What this means? Crystal Dangerfield cleared waivers.

No team picked her up. I am willing to bet she is re signed with the Lynx with a hardship exception.
Are the WNBA "suspensions" and hardships just creative accounting? If the Lynx resign Danger, what would her salary be? Less than last year? Thanks.

What are the time lines of these hardship exception signings? Before first game? Any time in season?

just want to know how "great" Reeve has done since Whalen, Moore, and Augustus left. Since you know she is a great hc?
 
Is she washed up? Why doesn't the Sun pick her up? Why would she go back to a team that cut her if she has other options?
 
.-.
Wow! So glad she got picked up
Indiana gonna be interesting to see how they come together
5 rookies
5 2-4 yrs experience
3 6-10 yrs experience
Someone must be overseas or something
