Right now, i think Sky needs someone who can shoot 3s. Sky needs a consistent 3 point shooter.
Lol let Reese and cardoso shoot threes😂
@@DavidGuthrie-yo2hy If they are shooting 3s then who will play in the paint? Everyone has a role on the team
@@phionah486 exactly they need a deep bench which is hurting the sky
Right now the Sky should focus to building out a Team for the Future. That means picking up Taylor. Eventually, they will work out their 3 point issues. But right now, the priority should be adding Taylor. Because no matter what, Dallas has the option to swap first Round picks with the Sky.
Kysre doesn’t get playing time but that’s her role.
Chicago needs another scorer
@@rena90822 Chicago needs more thugs
Sky NEEDS a legit 3 point threat
I was watching a video where Candace Parker was saying that they need more roster spots for WNBA teams and I couldn’t agree more.
All sky need is spacing if they get a 3pt shooter its over
Every team would love to add Taylor But of course the worse defensive team in the W... Didn't even give her a chance... Again shows how the Indiana fever coaches and general manager are... Ridiculous
Lynn Dunn is obviously past her expiration date to be a general manager ..I don't care that she won championships before.. Sometimes retirement is a blessing not a curse...lol
thank you😅not a fan of fever but watching the way she coaches she is affecting the players i hope they pull her out cause Caitlin need a better coach dont like that woman she be shouting and jumping on court like that would help
Lin Dunn is one dimensional and well past time to be gone.
Celeste Taylor and Carter would compliment each other extremely well. The Sky would be smart to pick up Taylor. When somebody let's go a player that can FIT your team, you make it happen. The Sky is rebuilding for the Future. Taylor should be a part of that future. They literally gave up a King's Ransom to get Marina Mabrey which was so bad of a deal that Dallas can swap First Round Picks with the Sky. So even if the Sky ended up with the top overall draft pick, they would lose it to Dallas.
That was a very dumb trade for Mabrey. She’s too inconsistent for what they gave up.
I would like to see Dallas wings pick her up she would be back with Sheldon teammates at OSU.👍😀😀😀
Sky needs a more active guard for sure and since Angel hangs back in transition or gets steals herself, them working in tandem would be crazy. They also traded their future away for Mabrey which hasn't been great. Taking on another star rookie would help the franchise immensely.
Taylor would be a good fit for the Sky. She plays D and she’s hungry, all she needs is an opportunity. The Fever didn’t know what they had.
That's usually how they roll.😑
That’s what Sides was whispering in Weatherspoons ear when they lost. Lol that was a long embrace and talk. Lol
Definitely sus!
Chicago Sky can definitely use her talent. Her addition will help Carter. She will definitely allow De Sheds to go off on the floor. Also, will help the shooting g guards.
T
She belongs in the W. A defensive stopper and a decent shot. If you go back and look at some of the FIBA games when she was an amateur you’ll see she was a baller. And played twice the minutes that Clark did.
Everyone talking about their need for 3 point shooting, but the Sky need reliable shooting from mid range as well. The obsession with 3 point shooting is hurting the game at all levels. I'm seeing lots of poor shot selection with players. Everybody can't shoot like Curry or Clark, but they can still contribute to a team by at least being able to score more consistently from mid range. I commented before about Reese just needing a decent step back mid range jumper and better footwork in the paint to benefit her overall game. Reese does so many other things for the Sky. Therefore, there isn't a need for her to shoot logo 3s every game. The mid range was a big part of MJ's and Kobe's offensive game so what's wrong with it now. I know people are going to be quick to say the game has changed, but you don't need everyone trying to shoot 3s when too many players already suck at free throws and higher percentage shots at mid range. in other words, there are too many missed opportunities at mid range at all levels in basketball.
I think Dyahia Fair will be good for Sky.
YES, Sky, please get Celestse!!!!
She would need to bring more than Dana and or Allen to make sense
Exactly because right now, those two aren't consistent
@@tgoodman757 Dana has been a disappointment, but Lindsey Allen is playing some very good BB.
@@go2hvn2008 I think Dana is playing out of position coach is fixated on having her run pg when she just needs to be a 2 especially considering she has the best 3pt% on the team
You don't want to mess up that chemistry these Sky Girls are close if its no injury then its no move to make.
Thw shooting has been off. Mabry missing shots. Why?
@@politicallil7060 so close but yet so far
@@godislove9273mabry they best shooter so stop that
Kyser never plays, so why are we keeping her ? We need to get Byrnna Maxwell or Celeste Taylor now. Because our 3 point shooting sucks, and are #1 Gaurd can't shoot free throws. If she can play defense than that is a plus.
Is Elizabeth Williams going to be able to play this year ??
@@Nubiansage1 No, Williams is OUT for the season.
@@Nubiansage1She's gone for the year. Her torn meniscus surgery wasn't successful. Heard that on local news.
Quita I'm confused when you use the terms, "chemistry" and "family focused". Chemistry is established over time by playing as a team with one another; and as for 'family focused', they're supposed to be a professional basketball team, put together for the purposes of winning, and not a family owned "mom and pop" store or restaurant business. I watch the Sky and love the tenacity they try to play with on the defensive end as well as how Angel and Kamilla are impacting winning but if you know you have a glaring need on the offensive end (reliable 3-point shooting) and the player the Sky drafted - (Brenna Maxwell) is the best woman's college 3-point shooter (both in percentage and attempts) in the country - and then she's waived, the terms "chemistry" and "family focused" sound a bit odd. By the way, you and your mom do an amazing job (thank you both) of covering the team! It's just an observation when one considers the games the Sky should have won but lost or when we can't counter teams that have 3-point shooting. I thought Kysre G was supposed to be the teams 3-point specialist. Just seems like the Sky have to work way harder to compete on that end of the floor.
We need her with the sky im a New Orleans sky fan
If not the Sky, the Storm should waive Muhl and take on Taylor!
The Sky just to prove a point
@@bobjones289 Your comment is deliciously petty...and I'm here for it 😂 #goskytown
Trade Mavory
She missed those free throws purposely.
Trade her trade her
She played like she wanted the sky to lose that game.
Don't trust mavery trade her
It's Mabrey
@@ALLCITY73 my apologies Mabrey, I do not mean to be so nonchalant when it comes to someone's job. I definitely do not want to take food off anyone's table. Mabrey is definitely a talent in an asset. And I do not want to serm harshly on judgment because of this rivalry between the sky and the fever. But Mabrey makes critical mistakes that have cost the sky a game and almost cost another game.
This by no means represents her talent as a basketball player she is an outstanding elite player.
But you need more than just talent in order to win.
Also I am returning back to the WNBA.
I stopped watching after the time of Cynthia Cooper and Lisa Leslie.
Angel Reese is responsible for my return back to watching the WNBA
She fit w/ chi perfectly .!! but they would hav to let the Angel Reese’s girl go(ky…) ion knw if they a do it .
Sky just stands around they don't move around
I have a show topic for about our last roster spot. I think we 3 point shooting, Playmaking and Defense off the bench. Either from 1 person or from 2 ppl if we can free up another roster spot. Here are some names I came up with that could be a good fit at guard or wing or both if we can get 2 roster spots.
Wings
1 Brea Beal 3 and D SG/SF 6'1
2 Celeste Taylor Two Way SG/SF 6'0
3 Gabby Williams All around SG/SF 5'11
4 Angel Mccoughtry All around SG/SF 6'1
5 Jazmine Jones Scoring SG/SF 6'0
6 Jocelyn Willoughby Scoring SG/SF 6'0
7 Megan Walker offensive SG/SF 6'1
8 Mikiah Herbert Harrigan Shooting SG/SF 6'2
9 Morgan Bertsch Stretch 4 SF/PF 6'4
10 Kitija Laksa Shooting SG/SF 6'0
Guards
1 Dyasia Fair Offensive PG 5'5
2 Crystal Dangerfield Playmaking PG 5'5
3 Tea Cooper Playmaking PG 5'8
4 Alexis Morris Playmaking PG 5'6
5 Nia Clouden Offensive PG 5'9
6 Asia Durr Scoring PG 5'10
7 Arella Guirantes Scoring PG/SG 5'11
8 Taylor Mikesell shooter PG/SG 5'10
I'm a new fan so you can explain why some of those ladies aren't on teams because looking at their highlights they seem to be better than some women that are on teams. I know theirs only 144 spots. But it seems like a lot of talent isn't in the league and maybe 1 or 2 of them could help us.
Why can't the Sky replace injured EWill. What is the W rule on that?
Rt idk what they're waiting for
Not bad as a new young team.
Celeste can shoot 3s too!! Look at her ohio state games!!- i want her at the SKY!!! But wings abd sparks could use her too
Wings she would be with teammate Sheldon. That combo would help them..
I was kind of hoping either Chicago or Atlanta would pick up Odyssey Sims. She can do a bit of everything and has veteran presence.
Can they get a exemption for Williams
With the Sky
Yeah, the first team I thought about for Taylor was the Sky. Next was the Mystics. Third was the Mercury. I think she would fit in very well in Phoenix, but that's just me.
A veteran guard like Cooper would help alot
Dana selfish with the ball
Thanks!
Thank you!!
If she's added now to Chicago, who do you cut? Gondrizak? Rookie for rookie? Mystics on hardship contract sounds more likely. I thought maybe Atlanta or Dallas but they both added guards the last day or two.
I would love to see her in Chicago but I am curious to see if Dallas is interested in her because I heard CEO Greg Bibb say in an interview how Ohio State plays a style of basketball similar to the Dallas Wings. That is why they drafted Jacy Sheldon. Now that Celeste is available, she being another Ohio State player and teammate of Jacy, it may be a good fit. So I am curious as to whether they are going to try to pick her up because of that reason and also because they've got some players injured right now too.
I would bring her in now and I don’t think she will mess up the locker room and I believe tongue can get rid of a player that already don’t see the floor anyway lol
Sky only real problem is our bigs cant play the pick and roll other then AR they always lose the screener, the screen just roll to the basket that how cc had so many assist basketball 101
The Fever fans are wondering if we can keep Celeste and give up Sides instead.
Yes to the Atlanta show please.
Dream just waived Crystal Dangerfield, it might be in the works.
The girl they got rid of was the answer
Yes it a couple ppl sky could go without Respectfully kyzer Dana
Fair
Celeste is ok on offense..she shoots 3s well.
Question, why would she not fit in with the Sky?
Daiysha Fairs hardly played and was let go. Celeste hardly played and was let go.
Kysre hardly plays. Just wondering if this is a trend being set and if they gonna cut her too, or is it because Sky's games are usually tight and they do not have the leeway to bring her on.
Didn't Celeste just celebrate a birthday a few days ago?
Every team in the W risks chemistry when adding new players. But they handle it, why can't the Sky?
Taylor would add to the Chemistry.
How many rebounds? How many steals?
They just need a great 3 point shooter if she play defense that’s a plus but the really need a pure shooter because they have no consistent shooter other than Kennedy Carter
i want that atlanta dream video...because i expect so much more from atlanta and i feel haley jones should play the 4 and be used like phee and a AT hybrid...and have powers/canada/crystal share the pg/1 spot
also completely agree about sky...even with i am hoping for flaujae i am like i hope the league increases roster spots by then so they can just add flaujae without having to cut anyone
Quita, if not Taylor, why not Tea Cooper ? And isn't she on a team
Me gustaría que Clark y Celeste Taylor también se fueran del equipo Fever a otro equipo ❤.
They have a lot of heart! T-Spoon is the best. NO!
Chicago needs to give Kyser a chance.
Sky doesn't have a perimeter focus that's why she doesn't get much run
Define chance.
Sky or Sparks
Everything you said was spot on. She would be amazing with the sky. I think most of us, if you are a Sky fan, know who she would replace (and I love Gondrezick no shade lol). However, again, it comes down to that chemistry. I think they would all be welcoming but they are already all so close. It's just interesting.
Also, since we are talking about Fever, maybe we need to talk about Caitlyn Trading lmao. I know it is probably unrealistic but that Sky vs. Fever game showed me that she and Aaliyah Boston aren't enough to keep that team afloat at this point. And maybe it's because tensions were high but Caitlyn threw some fire passes but her teams kept missing. And even the players not responding to Aaliyah that well, really had me perplexed. Just my thoughts but I could be wrong, I haven't watched the Fever play enough to have anything concrete to say. I just know that what I saw at the sky game from them had me side-eyeing the players miscommunication issues with Caitlyn and Aaliyah because they played amazing
Quita, Alanta might work for Celeste.
Chicago Sky should go get Arike from Dallas Wings for Evans and a draft pick.
just started the video... pick her up sky trade mabrey, shes a sabatoger. taylor would fit with our rookies . shes a defender and can shoot.
One of their best Defenders on the team. I am calling out a conspiracy to make CC fail. I mean what would you do different as a team coach owner league to sabotage CC and your own future. "We like the attention but we do like her fans. Watch but do not have a opinion about OUR sport."
They should get Dyaisha Fair and in next year's draft Tehina Pao Pao..
The sky does not have a first-round draft pick remember😮
Nope, they need more spacing
The Chicago Sky need to bring back Brynna Maxwell.
Kyrse is not good.
Isn't Elizabeth out for the season? She can still play without letting kyrse go
Maxwell has a torn ACL she is literally out for the whole season😢
But I do think she will be in the sky uniform next year😅
@@brandonleemoss where did you hear Brynna tore her acl?
@iglesiamiredf6428 Kysre is only on the team because her mom played w/ T-Spoon in college.
We haven't seen her. Great 3 pointer to though!
I don’t think Taylor would fit in the Chicago players. I like to see her go to the Wings
Im sure they want to stick it to the fever
🤷🏾♂️ they do only hav 3 guards
Dream
😢 conspiracy...smh, they will use her to play against Clark 😂
Thry not s 3 point focused team
Would love for you to give us a rundown on the upcoming game.... Chicago Sky vs A'ja Acers....
Aces all day not even close 😊
@@DavidGuthrie-yo2hy not so fast.... Chicago Sky haven't been blown out yet.... We fight with the best .....

Indiana could be outcoached by a tube sock. Let Celeste thrive elsewhere.
No new friends
I think Seattle should go for Taylor. Clear and obvious Muhl upgrade.
Did muhl get waived ?
@@iglesiamiredf6428 no, not yet
What happened
She was waived by the Fever
SIDES IS WHAT HAPPENED ...PERIOD.
A Certain Chicago Sky Fan : " OH NO SIDES ISNT WORKING AGAINST HER OWN TEAM."
SAME CHICAGO SKY FAN : " THEY JUST WAIVED THEIR BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYER EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE WORST DEFENSE AND I WANT HER ON MY TEAM"
...IN A WAR YOU DONT HELP YOUR ENEMIES. ..
UNLESS YOURE A TRAITOR.AND A BETRAYER EVERY MOVE SIDES MAIES IS TO WEAKEN THAT FEVER TEAM IN THE SHORT TERM. AND HER LATEST MOVE TO REMOVE CELESTE IS GONN HURT EM IN THE LONG TERM...IT AINT NO CONSPIRACY ITS A CAMPAIGN AT THIS POINT... 👀 👀 👀
I'll rather sherrod over celeste
Just play Kyrse

Add Taylor, keep Kysre, bye bye Turner.
Nope, bye bye Kysre.
They absolutely need Turner with E Will out.
