Message: [QUOTE="willtalk, post: 3242355, member: 1220"] I have always been a supporter and fan of Lou, but in reality, the scouting of the WNBA teams leaves a lot to be desired. Some teams consistently make bad picks. Except for the top few picks the WNBA is not as dependent on draft picks as the NBA or some other professional sports. I doubt they put a lot of resources into scouting players. Even the level of coaching in the WNBA is not as good as the top-level college coaches. I would not put too much store in the competence of their scouting staff. If they even have a scouting staff? The WNBA, in general, is an organization filled with incompetence. As I stated in previous posts- Often teams make mistakes in respect to the players the draft. The fact that there are threads discussing how Lou is on the wrong team is evidence of that. I also believe she is on the wrong team and that translates to the team [B]making a mistake in drafting a player that does not fit in their system[/B]. Fortunately she was a high enough draft pick and had a good rep coming out of college that she will be given an opportunity at least with another team if it doesn't work out where she is at. The team they are drafted by has a major influence on a players level of success. [/QUOTE]
