Two Not Great Omens

I don’t understand how Westbrook fits in with this team. Won’t she potentially interfere with the development of the younger stars, Bueckers and Fudd (my prediction)? I’d want both to be Day 1 starters.

Don't think so. Were Maya, Stewie, or DT starters from day 1? And for all we know Westbrook leaves after next season with Meg.

Stewie did start her first game at UConn, as did Christyn, and Maya & DT both earned starting positions early in their freshman seasons.

cabbie...I sat with Biff. I know Biff. Biff is an acquaintance of mine. cabbie, you're no @Biff .

Man, do I ever know how true that is! But still, I couldn't resist!

I think she plays one year anyway, whether it's this year or next

If she only plays this year (assuming the waiver is granted), that’s only 3 years of college and 3 years of basketball played. Where does she go then?

[Edit:] I checked and it does appear that she’s old enough to declare early for the 2020 draft (under current CBA standards). So I guess that’s a possibility, although I’m not sure how likely that would be.

You don't understand how arguably the best scorer in the country fits on this team? Bueckers is a point guard and will take over for Dangerfield, and Fudd will not even be in college yet when Westbrook plays her final season.

I think Westbrook leaves next year with Walker no matter what. If she is granted immediate eligibility she will play 2 years, if not she plays one.

Yeah, but you're fixated on what's logical and what's right. NCAA may have other ideas.

We'll probably hear by round one of the NCAA tournament.

I did dig out and post the "original" hot tub picture over in the Harry Perretta Retirement thread

Raoul wants some easy money? Maybe he should head over to . . .
