I don't think Taurasi was drfated by us, I think she was traded. WNBA players shoot free throws better than the NBA men...I will tell you that. And that little ass PG for LA is a beast. There are some players worth watching in this league. That Delle Donne chick is cold ass hell too.


Their strong fundamentals makes up for their lack of athleticism, its more fun to watch.

Let them use the same size ball then compare.

You would think the size would be in their favor, and possibly it is when shooting free throws, but I found it tougher to switch constantly between the 29.5(NBA) and the 28.5(WNBA). Because I coached girls basketball as well as boys, I found girls having to constantly changing depending on who we were playing with, either in practice or pickup games. It must be tough for high school and college girls, who often play pickup games with men or boys.

I'm impressed with how many moving screens #4 from the Lynx is allowed to perform. I guess it isn't just Suns home games where crap like this happens. :(

Even more impressed, she just had two on the same play. First she rammed into the defender, then shoved the other in the back. :roll: Atleast her other player was able to score without problem.
