    Let's talk playoffs.

    Did you see that whoppin' the Sky put on the Liberty? Sky said nope IT AIN'T OVER! Love it!

    Now I'm watching Vegas put it on Phoenix. Yeah I know they're missing there starting 5. But still.

    Yep, the Aces and Sky are so dominant, they'll certainly be in the finals. BUT, it would be fun if the Sun could get in there.

    I’m rooting for Ariel and the Mystics but the top four seeds seem to be a cut above.

    Of course I’m a Dallas Wings fan and I’m just hoping they can get their first playoff win today since moving the franchise here at this point but they have made steady progress and been fun to watch this season. Still have no idea what they’ll do with Charli at this point

    Interesting article about Charli a few months ago. Charli Collier and Awak Kuier's Wings Story Has Yet to be Written - D Magazine

    Yep, I bet psychologically it's been pretty tough for her to come from No. 1 pick to bench warmer. She doesn't even get considered for clean up minutes...not that there are many in playoff games.

    Charli is more of a finesse post player, she struggles against posts as big as her who are physical players.

    Based on the article, sounds like Collier has a great attitude and a good head on her shoulders, taking the long perspective.

    Very true it’s been mind boggling. She played the entire 4th QTR in the rout of the LA Sparks in the next to last regular season game going in with a 38 point lead and scored 7 points. Other than that she’s hardly stepped foot on the court and only for a couple minutes per game in the few she entered. The Wings have a lot of front court players in front of her and I can’t say she deserves more minutes than any of them at this point. This wasn’t the breakout season I thought she might have so maybe next season…or maybe she does need a change in scenery.
