Message: [QUOTE="Orangutan, post: 3438478, member: 4946"] I think Wade liked Lou's skillset but couldn't figure out where to put her. He seems to really prize floor spacing and bigs that can't shoot, so Lou makes some sense. She's just not as physical as WNBA 4s and not as fast as WNBA 3s. I think she'll probably figure it out and have a pretty good career. Chicago just had a ton of competition for backup forward minutes (Copper and Gabby at the 3, Parker and Ndour at the 4) and an owner that wants to win now. They weren't in "let the rook find her way" mode. Hartley went to Phoenix who greatly overpaid for her. Though the Liberty had a lot of guards capable of playing the point in the theory, I don't think any one of them was a great option. So I actually think Ionescu does fill a need for them. I think folks like Durr and Nurse are a bit better off the ball and will thrive playing with Sabrina. [/QUOTE]
