She should be back in shape by then, shouldn't she? I could maybe see taurasi not making the olympics since her injury is a bit more serious, but I don't see any reason why Sue would skip out on the olympics? Idk...
Maybe she's thinking of retiring

I think Sue is going to retire in 2021. One more Olympics for her, and one more push at another WNBA title when Stewie comes back in 2020. I think she plays one more season in the WNBA.

Wow! I thought she was 100% straight. Well, now she can show off her championship ring to any future suitors.

This should be posted here. Congratulations to the Washington Mystics, the 2019 WNBA Champions. Also, congratulations to Emma Meesseman for being the Finals MVP. :wub:

So this is not a story that is getting anywhere near the coverage that it should because it is women's basketball and so few people care but I wanted to talk about the HOF and how farcical the whole thing is.
Yesterday was the announcement of the candidates for this year which included some huge names on the men's side.
The women's side is a whole different story.
Firstly did you know that there is this whole bizarre voting process for the NBHOF.
There is like one committee that sends the candidates through to the second committee who in the case of the men can vote up to ten new men through every year for final selection however for women it is only 2.
That is right only 2.
How fucking mysoginistic is that shit.
However it gets worse as the two candidates that the female committe sent through were Catch which makes sense but the other on was Swin.
Now you may not see that as a big deal but there would have been two other people on that list, Penny Taylor and LAUREN JACKSON.
That is right a so-called panel of experts selected Swin over LJ.
They chose, at best, a borderline HOF candidate over one of the greatest players in the history of the game.
Who the fuck was on that panel.
The issue isn't just about LJ, it is about both the mysoginy of the process and the selection process.
Can you.imagine if this happened with the men. Someone like LJ not being put straight into the HOF. There would be outrage but because it is women nobody cares but basketball people really should because it is ridiculous.

x 100
Candidates should be Jackson, Catchings and Taylor before Cash. All of them retired 2016.

Is anyone else a bit worried for the olympics? I'm sure usa will pull through as always, but still, i think that loss to oregon made people realize that they're not invincible, maybe it'll give the other teams the confidence they needed

To be fair USA didn't really have there A squad out there, granted they probably should have still won lol, but I think once they have there legit squad out there they should be fine.

They have games against UConn and Louisville, those results should tell them a lot.

I really wish this was less of a gossip thread and more of an all things WNBA thread. There have been so many moves lately and it's like a drop in a bucket out here.

What do you think Chicago's next move is? According to this, they have the most remaining cap space.

Nope she requested to get traded because they wouldn't pay her enough. She wanted to stay but wouldn't with what they were offering

The did end up offering her the max available to her but she was originally offered less so they could lock in Jones and get Bonner with hopes of having some cap flexibility. Basically CT made it clear who they valued and who they felt was replaceable and it rubbed Williams the wrong way.

As much as they hyped them it was embarrassing for them to lose. At least she won't be a role player in for the dream

Exactly. She left because she was butthurt. They traded Bonner for the supermax but only offered her the max. So she went to ATL, where she is getting the same max she would of got at CT.
She wanted to be in ATL but for some reason refuses to admit it.

x 100 As a Mercury fan I was and I am happy they traded her away early on. I know many fans didn't like it and regretted it but not me.

I am not a fan of Seimone Augustus playing for the Sparks. After their rivalry with the Lynx it just feels wrong to have her on our side.

Apparently LA actually offered less money than Minny. So she must be moving for the chance to win one more title or maybe just a change of scenery.

I don't necessarily fault her for that but why the rival Sparks? You'd think she'd want a different landing spot.
