This WNBA league has more drama than a Korean soap opera and a Chinese drama series combined! Women's main characteristics are Jealousy, Envy, and Petty... hence the unprofessional hoopla they are causing in their league. It's only normal for their traits and characters, right???
I think Mabrey is completely valid in wanting to leave. James Wade promised her that she would be a key piece on a contender and 1 year later she's on a team that in complete rebuild with a new coach. Chicago subpar facilities and the carousel of players consistently leaving (Kah, Candace Parker, Sylvia Fowles, EDD and more)over the years makes it clear that organization isn't exactly the most player friendly team. Add to it, new fans that have blamed for every loss anyway, I think she made the right move. Connecticut is a contender and she could be an asset if used properly.
Chicago is the worst shooting team in the League. They don't have good leadership. They don't have a Kobe, LeBron, or Steph. Rookies aren't veterans. Sky won't go far in the playoffs. I don't blame Mabery for wanting out.
@@gesselberry6499 LMFAO Chicago is nowhere near where they should have been and they are on a backwards roll right now and literally 2 games away from losing the 8th seed in the playoffs
I also agree that Seattle game changed EVERYTHING. That 27 and 10 game from angel in particular and that 33 point game from Chen really scared the league, Chicago was already a threat but with the impact and potential that angel has They could make the playoffs and be a pain in the butt to get rid of. When Marina was on the bench and the team succeeded without her on multiple occasions she knew the writing was on the wall. They were going to end up trading her anyway because they weren't going to lose her for nothing and she wasn't going to be able to sign with any contending team with the amount she wanted so she made the best decision for herself and Chicago.
LMFAO bro you just dreaming. That 33 point game Carter had came against who again? The Storm in a very very close game(that if you actually paid attention to, the Storm let them win) and then turned around and got blown out by the Storm 2 days later in a 13 point loss. oh yea that game didn't scare the league either. Carter has been in the league for a long time and has played with several teams. The last team she played for benched her ass for playing dirty and then let her go. Now she's in Chiraq playing dirty along with Reese and they both got into a heated argument when they lost that 1st game to New York and there was a 2nd heated argument that also involved Cardosa after the 2nd consecutive loss to New York that ended Reese's stat padding double double. Cadosa will be the next player to leave Chiraq
@@thomaswakefield6889 "The storm let them win" Yah you're trolling or just delusional. And I love how you didn't bring up Chen's 34 point game against the Aces that they won. Chen and Angel are clearly the key pieces to this team's success.
@Pushing157 Spot on/Great Analysis. Ignore the troll earlier, who I'm sure didn't watch the game, and/or follow Chicago's season. It's almost as if: Anytime you say anything nice about Angel Reese that's outside of that certain faux fan group that will not be named, purview they get mad, and wanna lie, and/or argue. What's wrong with them!? LMAO Do they not know we follow the team and watch their games. But nonetheless, they'll still try to argue with you on the internet , and tell you see with your own eyes, don't exist!! ROFL
@@thomaswakefield6889it’s funny you mention Carter being on multiple teams but has failed to mention Mabrey being on like 4 teams in 6 years 😂😂 she’s the common denominator here! She wants to be the star of the team and that’s fine but you can’t be a star being a vet and missing clutch free throws in multiple close games. She’s gonna find out she’s not THE star in Connecticut also!!!
Good take on it all. I thought that Mabrey just lacked confidence and wasn’t fitting into the vibe of the team. Those missed free throws and Angel having to console her was very telling.
@@anthonypuccetti8779 errrr…yes she did. She whiffed the last second free throws against the Mystics that should have won the Sky the game. Then she again missed both free throws against the Fever, right at the end, that almost cost them the game. After that, Angel went to console her. Not saying that people don’t miss free throws, but she had a spate of bad games too. She was the Sky’s main source of 3s and she wasn’t hitting any for a time. She seemed like the bad run was affecting her.
and yet I haven't seen her get tossed from a game like Reese or get a tech called on her for cussing out a ref. it's not always what you say but how you say it. Not even Jordan or Curry were ever thrown out a game for cussing at the refs, Jordan even said in an interview there's a right way and a wrong way to cuss the refs without getting techs or ejected. Marina has better composure when yelling and cussing a ref than Reese. Maybe you should look up Reese's stats on how many times she was tossed out of a game when she played at LSU and Maryland
@@thomaswakefield6889 What's wrong with? I love Mabry but I am realistic about her behavior. She is actually given a lot of rope by the officials so spare me the 'how you say it' crap! The fact that you hate Angel is perplexing to me. These women just want to play ball which is more than what 90 percent of Americans are capable of. You included!
I can make an argument she’s not worth her salary. The highest paid player on the team and you’re not getting All Star quality. As much as she wants to leave, they probably wanted her to leave also. Dump her salary and the real impact players on the team can get raises.
Genuinely wanted to give this video a chance at being news but it ended up being another white dude's opinion about why Angel Reese and the Sky are awful. Yet, in real life, I follow Mabrey on social media. Reese and in particular Carter feature ALOT in her posts/videos. She veritably lathers Carter with affection in every one. Reese too. Marina is a shooter and the change in coach frustrated her because her role was changed. She made that clear and that there was no personality issue. I wouldn't take this guy seriously. He's just another dude who's a pipeline to the Alt Right
She’s terrible under pressure. She needs to play on a team where everything isn’t on her. I won’t be shocked if she plays better on the sun, she seems like someone who plays better alongside vets.
@@lilacbp3908 Everyone does. Notice how Clark wasn't making TOs against elite competition because the receivers could catch. I hope the experience with coach miller made it more clear to clark and boston that sides is sabotaging them. The only real hope is that the new CBA allows rookies to opt out of their low value contracts, boston and clark could go to the liberty.
@@lilacbp3908She really is terrible in big moments. She shot 6 for 16 vs Caitlin and Indiana in a nationally televised game. She just looked awful. The following game she calmed down and did a little better. Her screaming at the referees don't help!
@@anthonypuccetti8779 She didn't exactly help a lot. When she played well she was good, when she played badly she was awful. She was awful in big games.
She was very frustrated, sky fans on social media noticed that from the beginning. Mabrey was brought in by the previous GM who had a completely different plan for the sky. She was expecting to be on a “win now” team but realized that she was stuck on a rebuilding team. Also her talking about the lack of composure from the rookies is ironic considering that the sky could’ve been 12-12 if Marina didn’t miss her free throws in many of their close games. I agree that her play style didn’t suit the sky at all, I think that atl & Seattle game that you pointed out proves that. It doesn’t go unnoticed that angel and chennedy had a great game especially in Seattle. I think that’s when she realized that she wouldn’t fit in to who they’re building this team around (angel, kamilla, chenn) and it looks like dana is in the same position too.
Dana should just be played as the sg that she is. She shouldn’t be primary ball handler is all. She can score and score a lot at that. She just shouldn’t be directing things. They need to either use her to come in and score quickly or just use her as 3 and d next to Lindsay or Diamond at point.
This is a hypocritical video because you can make an argument that Marina has the worse composure on the team. She always upset at the refs and other players on the team. If you ACTUALLY been WATCHING and PAYING ATTENTION. Angel has been the best leader on team. And that's bad that a rookie is your best leader and the vet is the one with terrible composure. And another point if you've been watching you know Maybrey has lost about 4 games at the freethrow line. 1 game against Washington and a few days later against Indiana she missed free throws at the end of both of those games and we lost due to that. And Angel was the one who was encouraging her and other players saying that it's ok and that's not the reason we lost when Maybrey was down on her self. So to paint the narrative that Angel couldn't keep her composure is low hanging fruit. And frankly not true.
I love how people point at stuff like a couple free throws that lost the game vs the whole 40 mins of play. Might as well blame the refs too , and other excuses for overall bad play.
I think angel as a great leader is questionable. We have no idea what kind of a leader she is when the camera isn’t on her. There is an interesting story about angel and the university of Maryland. Maybe I am the only one in the world interested in that story. But I wish some reporters would real dig in and write that story.
And you would know about this how? Were you in the dressing room? Two free throws are never the reason for losing a game. How many other shots were missed during the games you referenced.
@@TheDisruptiveOne yea as a freshman and sophomore in college??? Yea I see why no one is interested in that story … we do know that no player has ever talked trash about angel that’s played with her sooo she’s definitely not that bad off camera idk
Mabrey tried to dap at the exact wrong moment, they were trying to do the " they not like us" dance, They requested the DJ to play that specifically, they were itching to do it. If she would have wait three more seconds it would have been all good.
marina has always been hot headed as a player but she has learned to calm down & she’s shown maturity while being with Sky. she probably wanted away from the drama tbh. (speculation)
I'm a "day-one" Sun fan and long-time season ticket holder. I know the window is closing on this group, and I'm all for Sun management going all-in to get to the promised land. The addition of Mabrey has the potential to improve the team BUT will it be enough AND I worry about chemistry. Banham, though not as skilled as Mabrey is a great teammate and glue player. Jefferson also is a positive locker room player and is always pumping up her teammates. It is obvious that Carrington and Maybrey have a ton of unpleasant history behind them and that will be tough to put aside. The Sun orbits around AT. Will Marina be OK with being a 3rd or fourth option on offense? Will she dig in and play the kind of elite defense that the Sun demand? AT, DB and MM all have a habit of confronting referees and (with Carrington) opponents. Will this become a side-show of distraction and technical fouls? Desperate times demand desperate actions. I guess we'll see... GO SUN!!
Ummm the amount of mistakes Marbrey made she was at fault for alot, especially those missed free throws. She saw the writings on the walls and seen the shift towards the new players in Angel, Kamilla and Chennedy. Period.
Just look at her face when she went to the line in those games, she missed them on purpose, she knew she was leaving and wanted to screw them on the way out.
you do know that Reese makes more mistakes than Mabrey, that's why Reese shoots less than 30% from lay up range. Mabrey scores at a higher percent than Reese from all ranges including the 3 point
@@jeangrey5952i disagreed at the time but seeing that she demanded a trade especially after a big win kinda makes me agree that she purposely lost those games at the freethrow line
Kahleah Cooper WANTED OUT of CHICAGO. Gabby Williams WANTED OUT of CHICAGO AND NOW Marina Mabrey WANTED OUT of CHICAGO. These Players are sending a MESSAGE. The CHICAGO SKY have a “TOXIC” Environment, Coaches & Players.
Even with how kind and supportive Mabrey was, Carter still tried to hurt her when they played against each other. T spoon is the reason sky believe it is ok to assault someone in a game.
I hope she is successful here in CT. She annoyed the hell outta me when she played for Notre Dame. Hope she steps up her game. Chicago seems to do a lot of players dirty. I’m Still bothered about what happened with Gabby Williams!

This is an excellent review B2S, however I love how Mayberry is not into airing her clubs dirty laundry in public. I’m liking her more and more but she is only human too. Really loved this review keep up the great work bro.
@@back2sports If you told the truth,, and/or didn't so sloppily speculate, you wouldn't be called out for this terrible (albeit relatively popular) video you released.
TSpoon is way over her head, preferring to encourage thugs Reese, Carter and DeShields to body check and sucker punch opponents rather than develop real skills and execute plays. TSpoon will be looking for another job soon.
She one to talk she always has composure issues … and that’s what vets are supposed to do rookies have to learn what do you expect… and in my opinion Reese has listened and gotten better over the season with things like that …
Been watching most if not all of Sky games this season and the one thing that stood out to me the whole time was Mabrey’s body language. It was obvious she wasn’t having fun but that doesn’t cut it if you’re a pro.
*I think everybody who've watched a lot of Sky games this season knows how funny it was to hear Mabrey talk about someone else having composure issues.* 😅
I think she wants a vet team and a better shot at a championship or finals now. She might of differed on coaching types with t spoon...i think they got along just not her type of coaching.....plus conn sun really need mabrey to shoot and beat the liberty..
Mabrey and Carter don’t mix like Shaq and Kobe. That’s really it. She playing much better on the Suns because there isn’t two player basically hogging the same position
I really like Marina but it was clear she was sliding down the roster. She was half in half out when the season started and then she never got her consistent game together add the explosion of extra eyeballs & criticism due the rookies and carter. It clearly was alot. This had less to do with the players and more to do with Marina's expectations like she said. I really wish her well. She threw some amazing football passes.
@Daniel How could she!!??...Maria, was arguably the Sky's worst performer under pressure, and she did it multiple times. This may have created a switch, where Coach TSpoon were not only using Reese and Clark as their two Go To Players (but Maria was periodically benched), and maybe Maria felt left out.
It’s unfortunate that injury has dictated the starting lineup for Chicago. I doubt that the 2 rookies would have needed to be so impactful had injuries not been a factor. Add to that Mabrey “gave it a chance” but I don’t think she bought in mentally. It seems like she peaked in preseason. Maybe she got more disheartened after Williams’ injury, but as a pro and a vet on the team she needed to be the vocal leader and the go-to player. She had the opportunity to win a couple of games with her free throws and came up short both times. After that her 3 ball started failing her. I think the team has done well adjusting considering she hasn’t been a scorer and the injuries. Mabrey could have been one of the key pieces for Chicago, but at this stage I guess it’s clear that the championship is not the main focus for the team, and thus she decided she wanted out.
Nah, Angel was going to start no matter what. Kamilla would prob still come off the bench, though. E Will and Izzy can be a bit more disciplined on defense than she is.
She got traded to a team she actually will do worst with cohesion with her type of attitude. Plus she definitely get less playing time they are not about to switch up their winning order for her.
@@maywood2069 exxxactly. You see how these people always omit information from their videos. Put all the information out there and let the people decide.
Exactly 💯 . And this is the difference. When Boston was talking to their Rookie to calm her down it was all good. With Reese they try to make her the angry black woman. Why is it that our race of players express emotion or drive and it is always turned negative.
All y'all talking about rebuilding..you have a team rn. Carter has all around game, Maybrey has an automatic 3, Kamila wins her marchup but Chicago bought into the Reese hype. Reese is a role player. Can't run the offense through her. Y'all trippin.
Another great analysis. My favorite WBB channel. I agree that part of this was the probably the things you mentioned: composure, veteran play and style of play. I think maybe, just maybe-she felt a bit on the "outs" with Angel and Chennedy becoming pretty tight? Maybe. Or should I say Mabrey? 🙄 But seriously folks......I think the style of play might've been the biggest part of it. IMO-the Sky style is kind of a run and gun thing, and I feel (I'll probably get some flak about this) that they should use both Angel and esp Kamilla in a more post up, slow down, kick it out to shooters role. I know that this isn't what the powers that be want-in both the NBA and WNBA. They want to see full court passes for dunks/layups, lots of threes from screens and step backs etc. The Steph Curry/CC thing. To me, Mabrey's game is more suited for a slow down, halfcourt game, passing to the open player for a shot, or drive. This (from what I've seen) isn't happening as much. Kamilla is almost as a decoy for Angel or vice versa. To me, Angel can bring her game out a bit, shoot mids/drive, or fake, drive. etc. That's kind of what Connecticut is doing. They pass into to Breezy and she posts, (and now she's starting to hit mids too) and either makes her move or passes to a cutter or a shooter. AT does the same. It's a grind out game. I think Marina would fit in there really well. I hope she does. I have come to like her more. I think many have seen that Marina "transformation" video where she talks about how she's changed her whole outlook on life and the game. I think she's definitely not the same Marina as we've seen in other collections of videos where she's talking ____to other players and getting into it physically with other players. I think she's still competitive, but just not to the point where everything is a verbal battle. I think her and Dijonai, Dewanna, AT and Breezy are going to be great together. I think their style fits her game better. I wish them luck, even as I am a staunch Liberty fan.
Dude, Mabrey was the one who cost them multiple games because she can’t shoot free throws in the clutch. Angel and Carter were the ones saving Mabrey’s butt.
@@back2sports Yes. But many of your assertions didn't make sense/were contradictory (To Mabrey's viewpoint, your speculation), thus shouldn't have made the cut IMO.
You could see the frustration on Maybery the past few games, looks like she was getting freezed out. Reese taking the ball up for no reason. They weren’t even passing the ball to her. Maybery knows this is Reese’s team now for good and bad.
As a CT Sun fan and ND alumna, I welcome Marina Mabrey to CT. The Sun needed another good 3 pt shooter and a good defensive player. Mabrey should fit in with the Sun.
It's a HUGE Miss by my SKY team. Marbrey was their KEY to success. The best most consistent and best player on the court, and a fierce competitor. Composure in the right moments. She is right! Reese is very young, Great player, but young and a bit distracting off court. Marbrey will be missed.
Marina has no composure. Also, marina choked on the free throw line at the end of three games. she cost the Sky two of the games. She almost cost them the third. It was Angel who saved her in the third game. And Angel was the one who had Marina’s back when she was choking at the free throw line. I am wondering if you were watching the games.
Man you could tell during some of the games, Mabrey was trying to say something to them and they would ignore or brush her off. Especially Reese. Mabrey was like F... it!!!! and walked off.
What difference does it make.Did I miss her at the All Star game?Or maybe the USA team?Reese had 12 and 11 in 18 min at the ALL Star game.She played no D,and only shot three's.
Huh???? Just a few questions… 1- You said that “Chicago’s hand was forced when copper demanded to be traded…”; when Actually, Chicago’s hand was forced when Candace left and Wade also left. That left copper with little to no choice because the organization did not seem to have a plan or at least a plan that she agreed with. so why leave those parts out? 2- Did you steal this title from Quita Loves Sports?… I hope not bc I really like you content. But it does seem VERY similar at glance to the content she dropped 4 days ago. 3- I agree that Mabry threw Angel and Carter under the bus in that press conference. However, I don’t know that you mentioned the level of hypocrisy that it took for her to do so… She is known for mouthing off and throwing tantrums… Even in getting in arguments with other players(which is why, and Mabry on the same team is going to be interesting to say the least) what do you think about that?
1. Wade decided to try to compete after CP left. So not sure what CP has to do with this. But as said in video rookie rebuild was on after copper left. 2 did not watch Q's video or title as stay away from other content for that reason. I thought title was pretty basic. 3 this was not a who was right or wrong - it was really just looking at why Mabrey wanted out.
I have watched several videos on this subject. What I have gotten out of them is that she wants to win, to get a ring. She strongly suggested that she would not get it at Chicago. Chicago is not mentally focused on winning, there are politics in the way. I will go as far as saying that I don't think that Chennedy Carter is happy there either. I get the feeling winning is also an important factor for her as well.
Mabrey wanted out because she wanted to be the star player. If you watch the games, she would take bad shots when the team was on a roll to make her presence felt. But what’s odd about this is that she’ll have a lesser role with far less opportunities At the end of the day, the Sky are better without her
Good Riddance. ✌🏾 Mabrey looked like she was trying to loose. She's the one who melts down in games. Angel Reese is the STAR 🌟 Of The Sky and Mabrey is Jealous of her. It's not rocket science. It's a GREAT THING that she's gone. Go be great Marina. All The Best. ✌🏾
@@anthonypuccetti8779 We don't have to argue that, or repeat ad nauseam to try to convince yourself. All we gotta do is watch the games (which I know you don't, or couldn't comprehend if you could).
Whats this.. you dont have to make speculations when marina says why. I wanted to compete for a championship and the suns team gives me the best chance why the speculation when she said she wanted to compete for a title .
None of them ever want to bur bridges, so their answers will never be honest. It's pretty obvious why she wants to leave Sky. The drama is out of control, and the coach isn't willing to stop it. Hearing how AR is out of control sounds more like the truth.
This is WILD nonsense. Angel has been the emotional leader of the Sky and has repeatedly had to calm down both Mabrey and Chenedy Carter whining at the refs then get back on defense and keeping their confidence high from their own bonehead plays. The rookies Kamilla and Angel had been the best defenders on the team! Marina has crumbled mentally multiple games and it got so bad Angel has been forced to take the free throws to clinch games because we cannot trust Mabrey. I like Mabrey but she has been the least composed player on the team all season.
I get the impression Angle Reese is all about Angle Reese. Seems she wants to be treated like a superstar and be the center of attention in the entire WNBA. This seems to be bordering on narcissism. At the end of the All-Star game, she was the only player to barge uninvited into the broadcast booth for special TV exposure. Her envy and brutal, flagrant fouls on her percevied rival are troubeling.
What?!! Angle and Caitlin worked most of their young lives to be superstars. Angle Reese started the competition with Clark just to stay relevant and steal some of her shine. Thugs in basketball uniforms assaulting ("physicality") when they are getting a whooping isn't basketball; it is more like roller derby, and indeed, that's why nobody watched the WNBA before Clark came.
With a player like Reese unable or unwilling to look for wide open teammates, caught in her demonic pursuit of double-doubles, I'm guessing that Mabry knew there were greener pastures elsewhere, with teams that do a better job of sharing the basketball.
Sky throwing in the towel. No one wants to play in that toxic environment led by "Me First" Reese, Crazy Carter, and Coach Spoon the Loon. Glad Mabrey got the heck out. Sky not committed to winning.
Marby attended Notre Dame. She will do better in Connecticut. Cooper attended Rutgers. It's the History of their Universities. Liz Cambage, I thought she said she makes more money elsewhere. Stop acting like they wanted to leave because of another player. They weren't happy in Chicago. It would not have mattered either way. Reese and Carter are home in Chicago.
Mabrey wasn't producing herself. Basically, let's be honest, she didn't want to go through the process. She got what she wanted by going to a team that's already built that can hide her weaknesses. Chicago is going to be great with all the capital they have for next season.
Y’all reaching hard as fuck she did not outright say any of these things that y’all saying that she said you’re going strictly off of body language, instead of allowing her grown ass to speak for herself
Marina Mabrey left but Trashed her own reputation with the joking/verification of teammate Dijon 'LADY DEATHSTRIKE' Carrington's Accidentally On Purpose Crane Style Adamantium Nails Detached Retina attempt against CC in game one.
Come on my guy ive watched all the Sky games this season i seen Mabrey cost the Sky like 4 games either playing bad or missing free throws she dont have that clutch gene.
The video was not about if Mabrey was choking at end of games or if she was playing bad. I think that is pretty obvious. It was about why she asked to be traded - I think in her mind she thinks she is playing bad as sky style of play does not fit her her style. Hence she wants out and go where she feels she can play well. As well she did not sign up with Wade to play with rebuilding team as Wade himself said F _ _ _ _ rebuilding. Things change. Wade jumped ship, then copper. Now Mabrey. Sky did well as got some picks back and they got Mabrey 200k contract off books. Win win IMO
No matter why she left, she left with dignity. Wishing her the best
What an Awesome player!!!
I wish her the best 💞 it's all 🤍 right

I think Mabrey is completely valid in wanting to leave. James Wade promised her that she would be a key piece on a contender and 1 year later she's on a team that in complete rebuild with a new coach.
Chicago subpar facilities and the carousel of players consistently leaving (Kah, Candace Parker, Sylvia Fowles, EDD and more)over the years makes it clear that organization isn't exactly the most player friendly team. Add to it, new fans that have blamed for every loss anyway, I think she made the right move. Connecticut is a contender and she could be an asset if used properly.
Chicago is a young team that’s rebuilding. She was sold on winning now and just based on the move to Connecticut, they wanna win now.

Not saying that people don’t miss free throws, but she had a spate of bad games too. She was the Sky’s main source of 3s and she wasn’t hitting any for a time. She seemed like the bad run was affecting her.
@@Obosii watch her when she plays for the Sun....you will see the difference. She wanted out of that circus!! And she has plenty of confidence!!
Mabrey just finished a Euroleague season and was a consummate pro. 2nd in the league at 18ppg, 40/37/79%'s, a stellar 5.3/2.2 a/to and 5.3 rpg.
Marina talking about composure is hilarious. She’s the main one cursing out the refs.
She's constantly cursing out the refs even when the foul is obvious!
and yet I haven't seen her get tossed from a game like Reese or get a tech called on her for cussing out a ref. it's not always what you say but how you say it. Not even Jordan or Curry were ever thrown out a game for cussing at the refs, Jordan even said in an interview there's a right way and a wrong way to cuss the refs without getting techs or ejected. Marina has better composure when yelling and cussing a ref than Reese. Maybe you should look up Reese's stats on how many times she was tossed out of a game when she played at LSU and Maryland
@@redformaze5968 She's always been a hothead even when she was at Notre Dame.
@@thomaswakefield6889 What's wrong with? I love Mabry but I am realistic about her behavior. She is actually given a lot of rope by the officials so spare me the 'how you say it' crap! The fact that you hate Angel is perplexing to me. These women just want to play ball which is more than what 90 percent of Americans are capable of. You included!
@@jeromedanielson4422 It shows!
I can make an argument she’s not worth her salary. The highest paid player on the team and you’re not getting All Star quality. As much as she wants to leave, they probably wanted her to leave also. Dump her salary and the real impact players on the team can get raises.
Awful trade by wade - he over paid in draft picks & salary
Genuinely wanted to give this video a chance at being news but it ended up being another white dude's opinion about why Angel Reese and the Sky are awful. Yet, in real life, I follow Mabrey on social media. Reese and in particular Carter feature ALOT in her posts/videos. She veritably lathers Carter with affection in every one. Reese too.
Marina is a shooter and the change in coach frustrated her because her role was changed. She made that clear and that there was no personality issue.
I wouldn't take this guy seriously. He's just another dude who's a pipeline to the Alt Right
BIG Facts! Chennedy is easily the BEST player on the Sky!
Same ol welfare league @@ThaSpeedsterZ
I love how her blowing multiple games choking at the free throw line didn’t make the cut.
She’s terrible under pressure. She needs to play on a team where everything isn’t on her. I won’t be shocked if she plays better on the sun, she seems like someone who plays better alongside vets.
@@lilacbp3908 Everyone does. Notice how Clark wasn't making TOs against elite competition because the receivers could catch. I hope the experience with coach miller made it more clear to clark and boston that sides is sabotaging them. The only real hope is that the new CBA allows rookies to opt out of their low value contracts, boston and clark could go to the liberty.
@@lilacbp3908She really is terrible in big moments. She shot 6 for 16 vs Caitlin and Indiana in a nationally televised game. She just looked awful. The following game she calmed down and did a little better. Her screaming at the referees don't help!
She didn't blow games.
@@anthonypuccetti8779 She didn't exactly help a lot. When she played well she was good, when she played badly she was awful. She was awful in big games.
She was very frustrated, sky fans on social media noticed that from the beginning. Mabrey was brought in by the previous GM who had a completely different plan for the sky. She was expecting to be on a “win now” team but realized that she was stuck on a rebuilding team. Also her talking about the lack of composure from the rookies is ironic considering that the sky could’ve been 12-12 if Marina didn’t miss her free throws in many of their close games. I agree that her play style didn’t suit the sky at all, I think that atl & Seattle game that you pointed out proves that. It doesn’t go unnoticed that angel and chennedy had a great game especially in Seattle. I think that’s when she realized that she wouldn’t fit in to who they’re building this team around (angel, kamilla, chenn) and it looks like dana is in the same position too.
What does missing free throws have to do with composure? If the game comes down to free throws then the team didn’t put in enough work
@@Vanjee24 She shot 6 for 16 vs Caitlin and Indiana in that nationally televised game. She doesn't handle big moments well for a veteran.
Dana should just be played as the sg that she is. She shouldn’t be primary ball handler is all. She can score and score a lot at that. She just shouldn’t be directing things. They need to either use her to come in and score quickly or just use her as 3 and d next to Lindsay or Diamond at point.
The missed free throws didn't cause the losses.
The Sky would have been over 12 wins if Reese just made layups instead of missing 80% of them just so she can stat pad her rebounds
This is a hypocritical video because you can make an argument that Marina has the worse composure on the team. She always upset at the refs and other players on the team. If you ACTUALLY been WATCHING and PAYING ATTENTION. Angel has been the best leader on team. And that's bad that a rookie is your best leader and the vet is the one with terrible composure. And another point if you've been watching you know Maybrey has lost about 4 games at the freethrow line. 1 game against Washington and a few days later against Indiana she missed free throws at the end of both of those games and we lost due to that. And Angel was the one who was encouraging her and other players saying that it's ok and that's not the reason we lost when Maybrey was down on her self. So to paint the narrative that Angel couldn't keep her composure is low hanging fruit. And frankly not true.
I love how people point at stuff like a couple free throws that lost the game vs the whole 40 mins of play. Might as well blame the refs too , and other excuses for overall bad play.
I think angel as a great leader is questionable. We have no idea what kind of a leader she is when the camera isn’t on her.
There is an interesting story about angel and the university of Maryland. Maybe I am the only one in the world interested in that story. But I wish some reporters would real dig in and write that story.
She missed 8 free throws all season. So, yeah give her at least 4 losses.
And you would know about this how? Were you in the dressing room? Two free throws are never the reason for losing a game. How many other shots were missed during the games you referenced.
@@TheDisruptiveOne yea as a freshman and sophomore in college??? Yea I see why no one is interested in that story … we do know that no player has ever talked trash about angel that’s played with her sooo she’s definitely not that bad off camera idk
Mabrey tried to dap at the exact wrong moment, they were trying to do the " they not like us" dance, They requested the DJ to play that specifically, they were itching to do it. If she would have wait three more seconds it would have been all good.
"They not like us" is as racist as can be.
Commentator even said the annoyance Mabrey exhibited was because it was likely seeing them being young and immature.
marina has always been hot headed as a player but she has learned to calm down & she’s shown maturity while being with Sky. she probably wanted away from the drama tbh. (speculation)
I'm a "day-one" Sun fan and long-time season ticket holder. I know the window is closing on this group, and I'm all for Sun management going all-in to get to the promised land. The addition of Mabrey has the potential to improve the team BUT will it be enough AND I worry about chemistry. Banham, though not as skilled as Mabrey is a great teammate and glue player. Jefferson also is a positive locker room player and is always pumping up her teammates. It is obvious that Carrington and Maybrey have a ton of unpleasant history behind them and that will be tough to put aside. The Sun orbits around AT. Will Marina be OK with being a 3rd or fourth option on offense? Will she dig in and play the kind of elite defense that the Sun demand? AT, DB and MM all have a habit of confronting referees and (with Carrington) opponents. Will this become a side-show of distraction and technical fouls? Desperate times demand desperate actions. I guess we'll see... GO SUN!!
Ummm the amount of mistakes Marbrey made she was at fault for alot, especially those missed free throws. She saw the writings on the walls and seen the shift towards the new players in Angel, Kamilla and Chennedy. Period.
Just look at her face when she went to the line in those games, she missed them on purpose, she knew she was leaving and wanted to screw them on the way out.
@@jeangrey5952 BS
you do know that Reese makes more mistakes than Mabrey, that's why Reese shoots less than 30% from lay up range. Mabrey scores at a higher percent than Reese from all ranges including the 3 point
@@anthonypuccetti8779 Go back and look at it, I kept saying it in real time, she had this weird look on her face.
@@jeangrey5952i disagreed at the time but seeing that she demanded a trade especially after a big win kinda makes me agree that she purposely lost those games at the freethrow line
I didnt know she requested it. I was like why the f they let her go.
Kahleah Cooper WANTED OUT of CHICAGO.
Gabby Williams WANTED OUT of CHICAGO
AND NOW Marina Mabrey WANTED OUT of CHICAGO.
These Players are sending a MESSAGE. The CHICAGO SKY have a “TOXIC” Environment, Coaches & Players.
the other guard also asked for a trade but was denied and the coach benched her for a bit likely in retaliation.
Dana Evans
Even with how kind and supportive Mabrey was, Carter still tried to hurt her when they played against each other. T spoon is the reason sky believe it is ok to assault someone in a game.
I hope she is successful here in CT. She annoyed the hell outta me when she played for Notre Dame. Hope she steps up her game. Chicago seems to do a lot of players dirty. I’m

He wasn't trolling. Though you did obviously read or watch some PR conferences. You didn't have the right feel for the overall situation in Chicago (especially concerning Mabrey), and chose to go with your version/speculation.
She doesn’t like playing with A-holes and the coach is no help.
This is an excellent review B2S, however I love how Mayberry is not into airing her clubs dirty laundry in public. I’m liking her more and more but she is only human too. Really loved this review keep up the great work bro.
Mabrey not Mayberry.
Thanks Calvin going to take a lot of S on this video - Chicago is like LSU fan
@@back2sports
If you told the truth,, and/or didn't so sloppily speculate, you wouldn't be called out for this terrible (albeit relatively popular) video you released.
TSpoon is way over her head, preferring to encourage thugs Reese, Carter and DeShields to body check and sucker punch opponents rather than develop real skills and execute plays. TSpoon will be looking for another job soon.
Great take - well done!
It looks like she wanted to get away from a toxic atmosphere created by the coach.
A lot of the black fans were toxic. They never liked Marina. They called her trash and blamed her for losses because she missed free throws.
T Spoon's hands might be tied by management.
She one to talk she always has composure issues … and that’s what vets are supposed to do rookies have to learn what do you expect… and in my opinion Reese has listened and gotten better over the season with things like that …
L. Angel acts like a child still.
Been watching most if not all of Sky games this season and the one thing that stood out to me the whole time was Mabrey’s body language. It was obvious she wasn’t having fun but that doesn’t cut it if you’re a pro.
FABULOUS video!! Superior journalism!
*I think everybody who've watched a lot of Sky games this season knows how funny it was to hear Mabrey talk about someone else having composure issues.* 😅
She also cost the sky a game by not being able to hit free throws in clutch time and almost lost a game against the Fever.
So let me get this she not allowed to be emotional and make mistakes as a rookie and learn from them.
Reese is a hacker and they spoil her. She is terrible. She misses most of the 3 ft. Shots she takes 😂
She seems like a vet, I like her play. Just better used on a different team.
I think she wants a vet team and a better shot at a championship or finals now. She might of differed on coaching types with t spoon...i think they got along just not her type of coaching.....plus conn sun really need mabrey to shoot and beat the liberty..
Mabrey and Carter don’t mix like Shaq and Kobe. That’s really it. She playing much better on the Suns because there isn’t two player basically hogging the same position
She knew she didn't want to be a part of the new circus on tat team
I really like Marina but it was clear she was sliding down the roster. She was half in half out when the season started and then she never got her consistent game together add the explosion of extra eyeballs & criticism due the rookies and carter. It clearly was alot. This had less to do with the players and more to do with Marina's expectations like she said. I really wish her well. She threw some amazing football passes.
100% spot on Back2spots. I’ve watched all Sky games & times Marina had bad body language & her frustrations with teammates were pretty clear.
@Daniel
How could she!!??...Maria, was arguably the Sky's worst performer under pressure, and she did it multiple times. This may have created a switch, where Coach TSpoon were not only using Reese and Clark as their two Go To Players (but Maria was periodically benched), and maybe Maria felt left out.
It’s unfortunate that injury has dictated the starting lineup for Chicago. I doubt that the 2 rookies would have needed to be so impactful had injuries not been a factor.
Add to that Mabrey “gave it a chance” but I don’t think she bought in mentally. It seems like she peaked in preseason. Maybe she got more disheartened after Williams’ injury, but as a pro and a vet on the team she needed to be the vocal leader and the go-to player. She had the opportunity to win a couple of games with her free throws and came up short both times. After that her 3 ball started failing her. I think the team has done well adjusting considering she hasn’t been a scorer and the injuries.
Mabrey could have been one of the key pieces for Chicago, but at this stage I guess it’s clear that the championship is not the main focus for the team, and thus she decided she wanted out.
Would you want to be on a rebuild that just lost Copper?
Nah, Angel was going to start no matter what. Kamilla would prob still come off the bench, though. E Will and Izzy can be a bit more disciplined on defense than she is.
@@ChloeeezyyyI agree with Reese starting and Cardoso coming of the bench. But I think next year Cardoso would have started.
The team will do worse without her. She was the only 3 shooter and had the highest point averages until this month and the highest assist averages.
I didn't want her to go 😢
I did... It's a new regime out with the old in with the new
Mabrey leaving the clown show
She got traded to a team she actually will do worst with cohesion with her type of attitude. Plus she definitely get less playing time they are not about to switch up their winning order for her.
We will see how this Ages 😂 Marina will be in the Playoffs, While the Sky is watching from the Couch!! 😂
GTFOH 😅🤣

@@maywood2069 exxxactly. You see how these people always omit information from their videos. Put all the information out there and let the people decide.
@@Sportsguy0258how are you going to reduce a 40mn game to free throws at the end of the game
She didn't.
@@Ryyian Right. It was only black fans of the Sky who blamed Marina for losing games. They never liked her.
@@Sportsguy0258 She didn't lose games.
Marina Mabrey talking about composure, that’s funny!
Leave Angel out of this. Your reaching so high you might reach Everest.
Exactly 💯 . And this is the difference. When Boston was talking to their Rookie to calm her down it was all good.
With Reese they try to make her the angry black woman.
Why is it that our race of players express emotion or drive and it is always turned negative.
All y'all talking about rebuilding..you have a team rn. Carter has all around game, Maybrey has an automatic 3, Kamila wins her marchup but Chicago bought into the Reese hype. Reese is a role player. Can't run the offense through her. Y'all trippin.
Nice analysis. Well done
Man, Chicago's season is over. Mabrey deserves a team that can use her skills. And she is a motivator. A team player.
Another great analysis. My favorite WBB channel. I agree that part of this was the probably the things you mentioned: composure, veteran play and style of play. I think maybe, just maybe-she felt a bit on the "outs" with Angel and Chennedy becoming pretty tight? Maybe. Or should I say Mabrey? 🙄 But seriously folks......I think the style of play might've been the biggest part of it. IMO-the Sky style is kind of a run and gun thing, and I feel (I'll probably get some flak about this) that they should use both Angel and esp Kamilla in a more post up, slow down, kick it out to shooters role. I know that this isn't what the powers that be want-in both the NBA and WNBA. They want to see full court passes for dunks/layups, lots of threes from screens and step backs etc. The Steph Curry/CC thing. To me, Mabrey's game is more suited for a slow down, halfcourt game, passing to the open player for a shot, or drive. This (from what I've seen) isn't happening as much. Kamilla is almost as a decoy for Angel or vice versa. To me, Angel can bring her game out a bit, shoot mids/drive, or fake, drive. etc. That's kind of what Connecticut is doing. They pass into to Breezy and she posts, (and now she's starting to hit mids too) and either makes her move or passes to a cutter or a shooter. AT does the same. It's a grind out game. I think Marina would fit in there really well. I hope she does. I have come to like her more. I think many have seen that Marina "transformation" video where she talks about how she's changed her whole outlook on life and the game. I think she's definitely not the same Marina as we've seen in other collections of videos where she's talking ____to other players and getting into it physically with other players. I think she's still competitive, but just not to the point where everything is a verbal battle. I think her and Dijonai, Dewanna, AT and Breezy are going to be great together. I think their style fits her game better. I wish them luck, even as I am a staunch Liberty fan.
A matter of priorities. Veterans want trophies, they dont have the time of the Rookies.
Look at her shine now that she has left the toxic cesspool down at Chicago
*Also to add to your argument, T-spoon called Chennedy the star player of the team*
Dude, Mabrey was the one who cost them multiple games because she can’t shoot free throws in the clutch. Angel and Carter were the ones saving Mabrey’s butt.
BS. Those free throws weren't game winning points. Angel and Chennedy didn't save Marina.
Video was not about how Mabrey played it was why did she want out of chicago
@@back2sports
Yes. But many of your assertions didn't make sense/were contradictory (To Mabrey's viewpoint, your speculation), thus shouldn't have made the cut IMO.

You could see the frustration on Maybery the past few games, looks like she was getting freezed out. Reese taking the ball up for no reason. They weren’t even passing the ball to her. Maybery knows this is Reese’s team now for good and bad.
MM is a class act as well as a great player. Wish her well with her new team.
As a CT Sun fan and ND alumna, I welcome Marina Mabrey to CT. The Sun needed another good 3 pt shooter and a good defensive player. Mabrey should fit in with the Sun.
There are ONLY 2 ROOKIES on the Chicago Sky! Why does everyone think they have like 6 rookies? 🤷♂️🤦♂️🤣
THIS
Cause, they gutted their team, and were expected to finish dead last!!!
It's a HUGE Miss by my SKY team. Marbrey was their KEY to success. The best most consistent and best player on the court, and a fierce competitor. Composure in the right moments. She is right! Reese is very young, Great player, but young and a bit distracting off court. Marbrey will be missed.

You did a great job. Looking at the body language they were being fake to Mabrey. I don’t like that.
Thanks
She can't be blamed for wanting to be with a mature team.
The Warren Buffett angle was a stretch but I'll allow it lol. Good video.
fair call
Marina has no composure. Also, marina choked on the free throw line at the end of three games. she cost the Sky two of the games. She almost cost them the third. It was Angel who saved her in the third game. And Angel was the one who had Marina’s back when she was choking at the free throw line. I am wondering if you were watching the games.
She didn't request a trade. She demanded one.
You request a trade. If they don't do it, then U sit out and demand a trade - IMO
Im surprised i haven't sen any of you opinion on CC.
Man you could tell during some of the games, Mabrey was trying to say something to them and they would ignore or brush her off. Especially Reese. Mabrey was like F... it!!!! and walked off.
She was the one blowing games and being over paid, who the hell would wanna listen to her?
@@darriusrobinson8370
Plus, I don't think they had any problems like that. Just another CC Troll.
What difference does it make.Did I miss her at the All Star game?Or maybe the USA team?Reese had 12 and 11 in 18 min at the ALL Star game.She played no D,and only shot three's.
Chennedy the lawyer of Angel.
Huh???? Just a few questions…
1- You said that “Chicago’s hand was forced when copper demanded to be traded…”; when Actually, Chicago’s hand was forced when Candace left and Wade also left. That left copper with little to no choice because the organization did not seem to have a plan or at least a plan that she agreed with. so why leave those parts out?
2- Did you steal this title from Quita Loves Sports?… I hope not bc I really like you content. But it does seem VERY similar at glance to the content she dropped 4 days ago.
3- I agree that Mabry threw Angel and Carter under the bus in that press conference. However, I don’t know that you mentioned the level of hypocrisy that it took for her to do so… She is known for mouthing off and throwing tantrums… Even in getting in arguments with other players(which is why, and Mabry on the same team is going to be interesting to say the least) what do you think about that?
1. Wade decided to try to compete after CP left. So not sure what CP has to do with this. But as said in video rookie rebuild was on after copper left.
2 did not watch Q's video or title as stay away from other content for that reason. I thought title was pretty basic.
3 this was not a who was right or wrong - it was really just looking at why Mabrey wanted out.
Mandy’s attitude wasn’t the best right before Carter shoulder checked CC. She yells something at CC. Check it out. I don’t have the video.
I have watched several videos on this subject. What I have gotten out of them is that she wants to win, to get a ring. She strongly suggested that she would not get it at Chicago. Chicago is not mentally focused on winning, there are politics in the way. I will go as far as saying that I don't think that Chennedy Carter is happy there either. I get the feeling winning is also an important factor for her as well.
Mabrey wanted out because she wanted to be the star player. If you watch the games, she would take bad shots when the team was on a roll to make her presence felt. But what’s odd about this is that she’ll have a lesser role with far less opportunities
At the end of the day, the Sky are better without her
Good Riddance. ✌🏾 Mabrey looked like she was trying to loose. She's the one who melts down in games. Angel Reese is the STAR 🌟 Of The Sky and Mabrey is Jealous of her. It's not rocket science. It's a GREAT THING that she's gone. Go be great Marina.

@@msl5253 gotcha thanks for that info
dude, you knew this video was going to be full of conjecture just from looking at the title, why act surprised.
None of them ever want to bur bridges, so their answers will never be honest. It's pretty obvious why she wants to leave Sky. The drama is out of control, and the coach isn't willing to stop it. Hearing how AR is out of control sounds more like the truth.
The irony is palpable. Mabrey for years was the face of acting a damn fool on the court. She was a serious hot head.
T-spoon's hand on Mabrey's shoulder during presser was telling. A lot of controversy with CHI team.
This is WILD nonsense. Angel has been the emotional leader of the Sky and has repeatedly had to calm down both Mabrey and Chenedy Carter whining at the refs then get back on defense and keeping their confidence high from their own bonehead plays.
The rookies Kamilla and Angel had been the best defenders on the team! Marina has crumbled mentally multiple games and it got so bad Angel has been forced to take the free throws to clinch games because we cannot trust Mabrey. I like Mabrey but she has been the least composed player on the team all season.
Wild nonsense - good adj
I get the impression Angle Reese is all about Angle Reese. Seems she wants to be treated like a superstar and be the center of attention in the entire WNBA. This seems to be bordering on narcissism. At the end of the All-Star game, she was the only player to barge uninvited into the broadcast booth for special TV exposure. Her envy and brutal, flagrant fouls on her percevied rival are troubeling.
What?!! Angle and Caitlin worked most of their young lives to be superstars. Angle Reese started the competition with Clark just to stay relevant and steal some of her shine. Thugs in basketball uniforms assaulting ("physicality") when they are getting a whooping isn't basketball; it is more like roller derby, and indeed, that's why nobody watched the WNBA before Clark came.
Mabrey made her cool decisions for her career and that's soul'Cool for her and we will luv her always ❤️ u'dig much-loved
With a player like Reese unable or unwilling to look for wide open teammates, caught in her demonic pursuit of double-doubles, I'm guessing that Mabry knew there were greener pastures elsewhere, with teams that do a better job of sharing the basketball.
Controlling emotions in a highly emotional sport is critical
Great coverage
Sky throwing in the towel. No one wants to play in that toxic environment led by "Me First" Reese, Crazy Carter, and Coach Spoon the Loon. Glad Mabrey got the heck out. Sky not committed to winning.
Its all because of the Fkn angel reese double double and carter the coach is stupidly high hopes with angel and carter

Come on my guy ive watched all the Sky games this season i seen Mabrey cost the Sky like 4 games either playing bad or missing free throws she dont have that clutch gene.
The video was not about if Mabrey was choking at end of games or if she was playing bad. I think that is pretty obvious. It was about why she asked to be traded - I think in her mind she thinks she is playing bad as sky style of play does not fit her her style. Hence she wants out and go where she feels she can play well. As well she did not sign up with Wade to play with rebuilding team as Wade himself said F _ _ _ _ rebuilding. Things change. Wade jumped ship, then copper. Now Mabrey. Sky did well as got some picks back and they got Mabrey 200k contract off books. Win win IMO
