Message: [QUOTE="Orangutan, post: 3269475, member: 4946"] Losing Whalen, Moore, Brunson, and Augustus sounds bad, but only Moore was all that good last year. Whalen was on her last legs (almost literally, her legs looked completely shot). Augustus and Brunson were also well below their career averages in productivity. I'm not sure losing those players actually hurt Minnesota much. Losing Moore was obviously a massive blow and it's amazing that Collier was able to step in and fill that role of star wing so ably. And that makes her a great choice for ROY. I just think last year's Lynx were clinging on to the past in the hopes of making one last run. In my opinion that roster needed a bit of a refresh and Cheryl Reeve did it wonderfully (easily the GM of the year, if such an award exists). Phoenix is now in a similar spot. [/QUOTE]
