The rumour mill - Opals coach and Sheryl Swoopes to be traded?

Thursday 27 January 2005

Ok so it's messageboard fare but perhaps with a bit more substance than most...

Jan Stirling to be appointed Opals coach till the 2006 Commonwealth Games

"What's the point?" comes to mind. If BA wants to reappoint Jan, why not for the full 4 years to Beijing? Unless they're worried about Carrie's WNBA commitments or they're waiting for Phil Brown. BA is just fucked.

Houston to trade Sheryl Swoopes?

If true, I'm not particularly surprised. Teams do jettison their star players occasionally in their twilight in an attempt to rebuild and reload. It's been seen in the Houston MNBA team - Hakeem Olajuwon anyone?

The problem is finding an ideal trading partner. Ideally, the team that acquires Sheryl will be close to contending but need that extra piece to get there. So that rules out the lottery teams and the middling playoff teams. Seattle could use a Swoopes-type but they don't have anything to give (LJ or Sue Bird - yeah right). Connecticut is in the same boat and I doubt the Comets would want what they have. New York needs a point guard and a banger - not another perimeter player. The Comets may want to trade to an East team to prevent Sheryl from burning them too much in conference matchups but no East team would really want to take her (or cannot provide something that the Comets want)

Sacramento could really use a Swoopes-type and they're getting old as well so they may give this serious consideration. The problem I see with Sacramento is that they don't have what Houston really needs (good guards). Sacramento have a bunch of good bit players but it's nothing that Houston would get too excited over.

Minnesota has some interesting young players Houston might be interested in. Maybe one of the young posts, Abrosimova, Lassiter, Kristi Harrower (I'm not suggesting the Lynx give up all four). Sheryl would add a veteran presence to a young lineup that really needs it. However, the young'uns could be considered iffy prospects and Van isn't exactly well known for developing players.

Funnily enough, I think L.A has the best trading potential. Milton is reportedly wanting to get out of L.A (though with MCoop gone, that may have changed) and there's also the possibility of Mabika (for salary and position matching) and Dixon whom L.A has been trying to flog for a while. While Dixon is overrated, she is better at guard than what the Comets currently have! No doubt L.A will feel their championship clock ticking with LL the wrong side of 30 and they may get over the edge with Sheryl's smarts and skills. So I can see L.A seriously considering this.

Comments

If Van's silly enough to trade Swoopes for Lassiter or the ever-inconsistent Svet, I suspect the Lynx would oblige. Harrower: that might be interesting, and the Lynx might take it, since reportedly SMS still thinks Darling good enough to start, and Harrower says she won't move back to America if she can't start.

When people start talking about trading Nicole or Vanessa I get all bothered and annoyed. Not that it won't happen, just that it really, really shouldn't. They make each other much better (in ways that Tamika Williams kinda doesn't).

Tameka Dixon: really? Huh.

Well I was thinking Van might go for Harrower, Svet, Lassiter and a pick or something.

Not that anybody has ever accused Van of being a good personnel decision maker.

It looks like Sheryl will go though, if the latest update on the ESPN thread is correct.

I LOVE TAMEKA DIXON!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE SIGNED MY SNEAKER!!!!!!!!

That is very to experience the low books may thus at some appetite lose a really closer side at these electronic prices, bontril. Waiting for a reply :-(, Ranita from Haiti.

Great post with lots of useful details. My fitness routine comprises mainly of high intense interval training. I discover that I am most productive I exercise within the morning.

Great post, good work. It Couldn't be wrote any better. Reading this post reminds me of my recent employer! He constantly kept talking about this. I will forward this article to him. Pretty sure he will have a delightful read. Thanks for posting!

Hello...state I didn't had a great read from a long time.Truly happy i found it on bing.I was speaking with my colleagues the other days around this issue and I have to state you clear out a lot of things.Thanks and good luck

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

I was hopeful and not looking for a miracle pill, I just wanted it to do at least part of what it claimed to do. The colon cleanse is a joke. It serves NO purpose, and has not made any difference. The Acia berry doesn't do anything at all for hunger and it makes me jittery which causes me to feel nauseous which causes me to feel sleepy. I haven't even had the energy I usually have to exercise. I took it for 10 days. I'm stopping as of now so I can have some energy again. I'm sorry I wasted my money. Please don't waste yours.

Well said, such a person should be a good sentence, or the future will be more rampant.

I enjoyed this. A good quick read.

I'm not a baseball fan, but this whole episode stinks to the high heavens. WHY in God's name is congress (A group of liars if there ever was one) WASTING their valuable time on a baseball player who allegedly lied about taking drugs that may even kill him someday. The country is in the grip of a horrible mess caused by the inattention of politicians for the last 30 years. That boil is getting ready to burst,and here we have Congress trying to "look busy". It's really disgusting. It's impossible for Congress to hold anyone in contempt, because that is the feeling that the entire country has -against THEM!.....:-)

It seems like Bud Selig's stupitidity will continue to haunt baseball. The trial is set for April 5. Another baseball season starts with PEDs as a major topic of conversation. Great idea the Mitchelll report. It was supposed to put the Seroid issue behind us but it seems to have put it front and center, year after year......:-)
