As a UCONN fan, I don't want Paige to get drafted by the Wings. As a WNBA fan, I don't want Paige to get drafted by the Wings. We can potentially get a three-headed monster with Paige, Arike, and Satou if she plans to not go to another team. But the Dallas Wings has messed up their draft picks in the past by not developing them properly and then waiving them. They did it with Azura Stevens, Megan Gustafson, and free agents who could have contributed to the roster. They messed up Charli Collier time in the W, drafting her number one, and barely gave her any playing time. Brian Alger did not let her see the court at times for her to develop in the W and then the organization waived her in her second season. Now she's playing well over in the WNBL. They just fired their coach who led them to a fourth seed and a semifinal appearance a season ago but this past season the team was decimated with injuries and she gets fired. 🤦🏿♂️ The Dallas Wings are not a good run organization, and Curt Miller being the GM can do things different but probably not.
Interesting the little segments on how the media this year has talk about talked Paige compared how media talked about Caitlin last year. Very different.
CC didn't make CBS Sports top 25 players predictions for last year but for some reason I'm sure Paige will be on the list for next season. The real question is will CC be on their top 25 for the upcoming year.
So she is more pro ready than CC. Ok cool I disagree but if she is more pro ready she needs to win rookie of the year have multiple triple doubles and make first team ALL WNBA and MVP odds and also lead the league in assists. She has to do all that. The one everyone said wasn’t ready did ALL that and also being most blitz player in the league.
Yeah no she doesn't. Geez why are you so offended that people think she's better than CC. Even if she wins ROY, which she probably will she won't get a bunch of triple doubles. That's not her game. Paige won NPOY her freshman season. It doesn't compare to either of CC's stat-wise. They have different games. You love CC. There's nothing wrong nothing wrong with that. Some like Paige better. There's nothing wrong with that either.
I never said that. You see how y’all just lie. You could not present or find anything where I’ve ever said that. And the Wings are just as excited. Everything isn’t about CC.
💯 agree with your assessments! I'm a UConn and Dallas was NOT my sentimental favorite. But this team is missing a single piece like Paige. And the dynamic between Paige and Arike is perfect. You are the first talking heads to point out that Paige is just learning to be more aggressive. I see a great mentoring relationship between these two, and now Satou has a reason to stay. I bet Howard wishes she hasn't committed herself now. I don't blame Dallas for being excited. Arike, Satou, Segrist, Lopez-Senechal, and Paige? That's some firepower. Not even mentioning the strong supporting cast. It's an opportunity.
I'm was hoping LA Sparks won the lottery so that Paige would be teaming with my another favorite Cameron Brink but Arike is a good teammate for Paige, we don't know about the Dallas organization if they will develop and improve or destroy her career.
Everything's coming up roses 4 the Wings. 1st u get a REAL GM in & Greg Bibb out w/ Kurt Miller on board. Then u hit the draft lottery 2 get dibs on Paige Bueckers. If they can convince Satou (their best player) 2 stay, ur back in the playoff mix. We'll see on the coaching hire. Also, if Aliyah Boston & Caitlin Clark can go 2 Indy, Paige can go 2 Dallas. She'll b a star irregardless of market 🏀🌟
@@shammycat3538 Big D is major, it's just not as glamorous & media-driven like LA. This general angst among fans worried she wouldn't b seen in Dallas is similar 2 last yr w/ Clark going 2 Indy @ 1 not LA @2 or better yet Reese going 2 Minnesota b4 Chicago traded up. These things tend 2 work themselves out.
Imma Sky fan & I agree. Citron wouldn't be bad @ pick 10 either. ESPN keeps mocking Azzi Fudd to Chi @ 3 but that's too high w/ her injury history. Miles would help Reese & Cardoso immensely.
@SauceDarzell Well don't be overly influenced by what ESPN thinks. Their mock draft is questionable as usual. Their predation mock draft for last season looked nothing like the real draft except for CC going 1st. I'll wager this draft will be just a different.
@@alanlee3236 Yeah they're always gonna push UConn players up the board. Lotta Huskies have fallen on draft day the last 5 yrs. Paige won't, Azzi likely will if she isn't healthy &/or if she can't play @ an all-conference to all-American lvl.
Paige will be 24 this year. Does she really want to play against 18 year olds for the next season? Caitlin made Indiana better. Paige will do the same for Dallas.
I wouldn’t enter the draft if I were Paige. Play overseas for a year. Arike is a great player but it’s not a good fit. Arike needs a big defending guard that can play off her.
Paige should stay in college for another year and hope to get on a better run team. Dallas doesn’t develop players and lets them rot on the bench before tossing them away.
I guess you don't understand how the draft works. It's structured to reward bad teams. But Dallas has some real pieces and has more than a even chance to bust .500 with Bueckers starting.
it’s the WNBA. Unlike the NBA when your essentially locked on your roster the first 7 years of your career if your a star. In the WNBA she can be gone after 2-3 years if it’s that bad. Not worth the risk of staying at UConn tbh
It's more than rumors. Lol She flies out to LA all the time. Agents, media companies, advertising... What is she going to do in Dallas? Never get the ball and sweat all the time because of the humidity? You have to remember Arike isn't exactly too popular around UConn land. Yelling at Geno and pulling Crystal Dangerfields hair on a fast break intentionally almost causing her to fall backwards and causing a potential career ending injury will do that.
And guarantee you Paige knows nothing about any of that or would even care if she did. After 4 years you should know her by now. She's a professional and always carries herself that way. She said she's done after this year. She's not the type of person to be a diva. Just not her.
If Paige is someone who’s major problem is that she’s too passive in terms of trying to shoot/score, then how in the world is playing next to someone like Arike who’s known to be a ball hog & shot chucker gonna help Paige. Wouldn’t it only make things worse? This is why I think Paige needs to demand a trade to a team like the Sparks so that she isn’t forced into this difficult situation
Oh look an entitled Spraks fan who thinks they deserve Paige. There's nothing difficult about it, she'll be the #1 pick, playing in a top 5 market, and will have the chance to revive a franchise. Arike is already excited about the idea of playing with Paige, you just don't know ball.
@alanlee3236 reporter asked her if she watched the draft lottery pick and it was like a weird look on her face and she smiled a lil and said NO. Now come on, u mean to tell me she didn't watch her landing spot? And Arike clapped back at her fans calling her a ball hog.
Paige is the perfect player for Dallas. It will unlock Arike Ogunbowale full potential and some folks still have not figured that out yet.
Dallas had the best odds because they also had Chicagos pick.
Yeah I don't understand why folks keep getting this wrong

Surely a “pro ready guard where it’s not gonna take a bunch of adjustment” has a better rookie season than most

Very for some strange reason people wanna keep saying she better than CC
@@gregking641CC is overrated

@@impartialreview-r7f if CC keeps up the consistency like she did last year this year. She is easy top 5

so did triple double made ruseell westbrooks better than magic Johnson😂
@@lecowardjamesfacts
lol Indiana was even more excited for Caitlin than Dallas is for Paige and yet Nat spent all season saying she’s overrated
I never said that. You see how y’all just lie. You could not present or find anything where I’ve ever said that. And the Wings are just as excited. Everything isn’t about CC.
@@natfluentialit’s not but people are going to notice as people are less critical of Paige as the season goes on
if you have Satou, Arike and Pagie in your hand, it's bomb
Arike & Paige in the backcourt for the Wings are like Kyrie & Luka in the backcourt for the Mavericks
Which one of them is supposed to be Luka lmao, neither of them are that level of facilitator

I'm was hoping LA Sparks won the lottery so that Paige would be teaming with my another favorite Cameron Brink but Arike is a good teammate for Paige, we don't know about the Dallas organization if they will develop and improve or destroy her career.
The day I see her talk about Paige game in detail I'll never believe she is really watching these games
