Since some of you out there like the Sky, brag about how much better their future is than the Bulls' here

Cardoso and Reese might be a problem out there for other teams, not gonna lie

Season starts next month!

Big mama difference maker Cordoso (6'8) vs Iowa in the national championship. Iowa had nobody to take her out the paint. 10 offensive boards, 17 rebounds total. Iowa's top Offensive rebounder was Caitlin with 2.

Cordoso vs Angel Reese. Reese is wnba version of Rodman (plays with an edge). She kept Cordoso in check and now they both on the front court together? ouch! should be a fun watch for sure.

An ok first game for Angel Reese...still got some work to do on her shooting. Too bad Cardoso started the season injured

Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark off to a bit of a rough start to her WNBA career, but I figure she'll get the hang of it eventually.

Am I the only person that thinks Hailey Van Lith is going to have a bigger WNBA career than Caitlyn Clark?

I think that's pretty dependent on where HVL ends up

Haily V. Lith was physically overmatched by Caitlyn Clark, the girl who is about to adjust with her team or get a new coach who runs a system suited to her strengths while being physically overmatched.

The rookie who is dominating is Cameron Brink. Brink is a mega-star trained to kill by Steph curry, and eat, and hyperbaric chamber. Peele is my sleeper pick more than Reese.

Peele can be Karl Malone with 3 Range to Reeses Rodman.

In Clarks first 4 halves she has had 3 poor surprising struggles and already one half that half the league will never achieve in their career.

But you are asking a rookie to be the point guard, be the leading scorer, and learn about the target on her back, the shade.

The New York Liberty were deemed the WNBA's version of the next superteam (ala Lebron + Wade dayz) cause they had signed hall of famers Breanna Stewart, Vandersloot, etc.

They made it to the finals last season and lost.

Sky pwned them again and handed them their first loss on the season!

She gets a lot of hate because of her FG% (and other stuff) but shout out to Angel Reese for that double double record...she's been showing out this season

Hilariously team USA loses to team WNBA in the all star game, but apparently this also happened last time and then the Olympic team won gold.
