Message: [QUOTE="Roger G, post: 3185663, member: 7083"] I think you're being a bit pedantic. Yes, I exaggerate a little, but the Sun certainly didn't get anything like fair value for Chiney. They handled it the best they could, I'm not criticizing them, but essentially they were forced to give her to LA and get nothing much back. In the Tina trade, they got Alyssa Thomas, who is no slouch, so that wasn't so bad. They also got Kelsey Bone, who played pretty well for them for awhile and eventually got them Courtney Williams when they traded her. For Katie Douglas, the Sun got Tamika Whitmore, who didn't do much for the Sun, and Ketia Swanier with the draft pick, who didn't do much either, but there seemed to be potential there. With the Chiney forced trade, they will maybe get some depth in the draft. They're unlikely to get a starter. So, essentially, they virtually gave her away. [/QUOTE]
