So, maybe she is Scottie Pippen if he had McHale's low post moves?


Hmm. I had to think about this one. Personally, McHale's footwork is ranked 2nd to only Hakeem in terms of men. While Phee has great feet (pause?), she doesn't really remind me of the way McHale used to work people. She does a lot of damage often spinning away from the hoop and it's unblockable.

To be sure not a perfect comp. Phee is a more prolific scorer and Scottie the better passer. But not too far off.


Phee's wing span definitely gives me Scottie vibes, but i still lean more towards Chuck since she's probably 6'0 barefoot and yet plays like she's 6'5

So if Phee is Pippen she should go play with Caitlin "Reality" Clark (Jordan) to start a dynasty.

Surprised no one has said Kawhi Leonard.

Really simple fundamentally strong game that relies on strength, length, and shooting touch. Extremely resilient as a tough shot maker, and doesn't need to do anything fancy looking to get her shots off. Combine that with locked-in defensive dominance, strong rebounding, and multi-positionality, and we have healthy prime Kawhi Leonard.

Honestly, Phee's probably the closest thing to Jordan that we have in the game right now. Clark is closest to Nash.

Funny thing though: I'd love to see Jordan play with Nash. :o

It depends what you would define as a super team in the WNBA.

I think a Clark and Phee pairing, albeit low probability, would be great fun for casuals and hardcore alike.

New York Liberty games would be prime time! Can you imagine how loud that crowd would get?

I do hope Phee stays with the Lynx. They have a good fanbase that deserve her.

We'd be on Prime Time ABC for sure

But nah. I honestly hope that none of the big names change teams tbh. Especially for Indiana and Minnesota.

I'm fine with building around Sabrina regardless of what Stewie and Jonquel decide to do but I will be sad if they leave us
