Shenise Johnson to San Antonio.

On a side note, some of these comments on ESPN's board are so pathetic. Why would you take time out of your day to go on a WNBA board and complain about women playing basketball?

Because you're overcompensating for various shortcomings and need to trivialize the accomplishments of others in order to feel OK about the fact that you have none of your own? Just a guess.
 
On another side note, one of the things I like about watching the draft is seeing the players in their draft outfits instead of their BB uniforms.
 
I like how you said what I was thinking without actually saying it. Amazing.

I truly believe that Glory has a ton of untapped potential on offense and that if she'd been in a team-oriented offensive system in college, she'd have realy sparkled on that side of the court. I'm a big-time believer in Glory.

I love Johnson's attitude and hustle but I'm not sold on her offensive potential. Her shooting mechanics are awkward and not likely to lead to consistent shooting; she also hasn't shown great passing instincts. I agree that she would've benefited from a different offensive system in college but I'm not sure she's on the right pro team for her game to develop.
 
I would love if Tiff ended up staying in Connecticut. I'm sure Caroline would be happy. Maybe they could still live together :)
 
San Antonio has to be thrilled for Shenise to fall to #5.

I was surprised Tulsa took Glory Johnson- I thought she was similar to Tiff Jackson and they also have Pedersen (although he may want her as more of a 3).

As for Prahalis...she can pass the ball. To her teammates, out of bounds, the other team...
 
It would be nice for Tiff to stay in CT, but I really thought Phoenix was the best fit for her.
 
This is what was listed under Prahalis' bio on the draft page

Her temperament overshadowed her achievement a bit too much her first three seasons, but she kept that in check this year.

HA!
 
Kelly Cain? Risky pick unless the Liberty have solid info on her health.
 
Kelly Cain? Man. That is...questionable.

Question: Are these guaranteed contracts? Or can they be cut before the season?
 
Prahalis against DT in practice is something I would pay to watch.

I think having two of the top four picks this draft show just how much Tennessee underachieved this year.

It's also an indication of how relatively weak the draft is. after all, i think most expect Baugh and Manning to be drafted too. in fact, IIRC, Baugh was also invited along with Stricklen and Johnson, so the expectation is she will go in the 1st round.
 
Novasel #8? Again, I wouldn't take her over Tiff. She won't be able to do what she does in college against pros. And Tiff is much quicker with a better shot, IMO.
 
Novasel is stunning in civvies and some makeup. Good luck to her in that joke of a franchise.
