is the WNBA solvent yet?

They don't need to be as long as someone else keeps paying their bills. The WNBA is the wife who is involved in some multi-level marketing scam to the NBA's gainfully employed husband.

Even with the lowered rim, two of those attempts weren't even dunks really. Rims would probably need to be at 7.5 feet before most of them could dunk with consistency. Which coincidentally is basically the height of the women's volleyball net.

She apologized.  Said her words were “taken out of context” & “misconstrued”

She is really dumb. Words have meaning. Use your words better, like a grownup.

If you swapped Reese with A'ja Wilson Chicago would be at worst a .500 team (they're 10-30 right now).

She could stand to look in the mirror. And I mean that metaphorically - since she clearly spends plenty of time doing that for superficial reasons.

On a losing team for the first time in her life it sounds like. I wonder if she thought that she was too good to ever be on a bad team. 

Between Maryland and LSU, she was on 4 teams that went a combined 114-20 with a championship in 2023
Wikipedia says in HS, her teams went 30-1, 24-4, and 25-3.  I can't find the junior year record, when she was briefly suspended for punching a player in the face

So far in the W, Chicago is 23-57 in her 1+ season (13-27 last year and 10-30 this year so far with 4 left to play)

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make - that Angel Reese isn't as good as the 3-time MVP?    No shit.  The fact that A'ja Wilson would struggle to get this team to .500 is exactly the point.   What Angel is is far and away the best player on the Sky roster.  A roster completely mismanaged by a joke of a GM and the worst FO and ownership group in the WNBA (and its not even close).  I expect Reese to leave - just like Fowles and Elena Delle Donne before her.

Man you are quick to defend these girls any time they say some stupid shit. 

The point is that she should be working on her own game and doing what she can to win games instead of dragging her teammates through the mud. She isn't good enough to complain about what's going on around her even if the org is incompetent. 

Once she is balling like Stew or A'ja or Phee then maybe she can much more professionally suggest that her org make some changes.

She also isn't "by far and away" the best player on her team. Cardoso profiles extremely similarly advanced #s wise.

It is a small league and you do not want to gain a reputation this early in your career for being a brat and a shitty teammate. 

Because other teams won't want that shit in their locker room if she ever wants out of Chicago or it'll be hard to get good players to want to come to Chicago to play alongside someone who is gonna throw you under the bus.

Cardoso should be the best player on the team - she was the #3 pick for a reason - but is entirely too boom or bust game to game to be considered.  She has incredible games and (aside from a 6 game stretch earlier in the year) then disappears.  She can't be counted on to give consistent effort and production.

You don't need to be a 3 time MVP to call out a bullshit FO.  What are they going to do, let her walk?  That's exactly what she's going to want to do in 2 years after Chicago gives up top 3 picks in the 2026 & 2027 (that have already been traded away in swaps) and is unable to sign any FAs.  The Chicago GM traded the #3 pick and possibly the #1 pick in 2026 for Ariel Atkins and then signed 36 year old Sloot to be the PG on a rebuilding team.  They have no clue what they are doing - and the rest of the WNBA, including the players, know it.
