Just wanted to say that Elena could be the WNBA poster child soon. Her game is very similar to Dirk, with her trick shots and such. At the WNBA level, I guess you could save she's got potential. Very pretty, by the way, love that she is feminine. She represents women with pride.

Tried to watched the game tonight, no sports on and I want to see a few Delle Donne games. I'm even downtown right now at a sports bar and it never came on. It's kinda ironic the time I actually get kinda interested in the WNBA it's almost impossible to watch unless its on a national TV.

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

I wonder why more NBA players don't do that hesitation thing that she and Dirk do. Dribble, pause, maybe pull up with a leaner, maybe dribble again. Very effective at keep the defender off balance. I understand that it only works for a player who is tall and strong, as it requires having the body strength to fend off the defender and the length to avoid being blocked (since the attacker can't jump very high when doing the stop-start-lean thing). But there are a lot of tall and strong NBA players, say Josh Smith as an example, who could dominate if they had moves like that.

Elena had a nice game but Fowles scoring 24 points and grabbing 22 boards was the key to the win.

They play Skyler tomorrow at 5:00 on the U.

That Sky front line is pretty impressive. If they get consistent play from their guards, they are contenders for the title this year. Delle Donne is the face of the franchise now...

Why? There's finally a reason to watch WNBA and Sky basketball. I followed Delle Donne from high school in Delaware to when she committed to Connecticut and that whole fiasco. Now, if you mean those that are "fans" because of her looks and the undeniable fact that they won't ever get close enough to touch her much less bang her or Skylar Diggins, then yeah, they should be ashamed...

She plays exactly like Dirk. The body movements her offensive arsenal are eerily similar.

Lol, I never thought I'd say this, but I'll actually check out some more WNBA. Her highlights look legit and it's sparked my interest.

I'm watching this game and it seems the WNBA gets less foul calls then the NBA does.

They play through contact a lot, awesome.

Yea, the NBA has gotten extremely lame with it. I liked the FIBA basketball better in that regard as well.
