This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

That's Great News. by dillon77
Arike got the lion's share of the attention, for obvious reasons, but:
- Jackie played a steady point guard where she was easily the 5th -- or even 6th -- scoring option;
- Brianna was plastered to the bench when she was used as the back-up #5, but blossomed as Griner's wing power forward in the latter part of the season.
- And although she had a very small sample size, Jess Shepard played really well in the games she did play in. Hoping and assuming for a full recovery, I think she'll have a very successful WNBA career.
- While we're at it, Marina had her moments when they were available, while also getting stuck on the bench for runs. Still, got a whole season averaging 4.0 ppg (same as Bri, I believe) when a lot of folks didn't think she'd even make the team.
