WNBA 2010 – Can the Sparks Make the Playoffs?
This has been a very strange season for the Western Conference in the WNBA. Most years, you’d be saying that this team was definitely going to the lottery. But this isn’t most years. Los Angeles still has time to make the playoffs. The question is: do they have it in them?

WNBA 2010 – Fixing the Sparks
I was going to post this along with my early season thoughts, but I held off until after the outdoor game between Los Angeles and Seattle, which Seattle controlled the entire game for the win. With the Sparks now sitting in the cellar, the question isn’t so much can they make the playoffs but more with how they can right the ship.

WNBA 2010 – Early Season Thoughts
It’s the first weekend of June and about a fifth of the WNBA season is done (boy, that was quick). It seems like a good time to offer up some opinions about the season so far. I didn’t do my usual pre-season post simply because with all of the off-season changes, it seemed to be an exercise too fraught with not-enough-information-itis.

I wasn’t planning on posting another blog about how I felt Chicago Sky Head Coach Steve Key utilized (or failed to utilize) rookie Kristi Toliver during the2009 WNBA season. But two things happened:

WTF Was Steve Key Thinking?
It’s become clear that the Chicago Sky and Kristi Toliver haven’t exactly had the most ideal of campaigns in 2009. Seems to me like Head Coach and GM Steve Key erred on draft day.

2009 WNBA – Is KT Wrong For Chicago?
Having been following guard Kristi Toliver for her four years at Maryland and now at Chicago, I can’t help but wonder if she’s one of those players who just happened to find herself on the wrong team?

Thanks, ‘Riss For Delivering Maryland to the 2009 Elite Eight
There really isn’t much to say about Marissa Coleman’s performance during the game between Maryland and Vanderbilt in the “Sweet Sixteen” game of the 2009 NCAA Women’s Basketball tournament that isn’t covered by, “Wow.”

Anticipating 2008 Maryland Women’s Basketball
There are some that forecast a difficult year for Maryland Women’s Basketball. I think they are going to have an easier go of it than Tennessee or LSU, who got decimated by graduation. Maryland still has Kristi Toliver and Marissa Coleman to take this young team back for their second natty.
