Hey guys
season starts next weekend May 16th, preseason is under way
we have also a pre season game tonight, the Atalanta Dream vs the LA Sparks, Sparks are 4.5 point favorites at 5dimes
Atlanta Dream without Shoni Shimmel ,she has been traded to the New York Liberty
back with what i am best at,Women Basketball, I will post all our 2016 WNBA plays here a couple of minutes before tip off,because I think this is fair to those who pay for it
if you want my daily WNBA picks a few hours before tip off just sign up to my list via paypal at a very reasonable price,you guys will also get my picks for the Olympic Women Basketball tourney,Team USA is going for another gold medal,even Geno Auriemma deceided t leave Candace Parker out of the roster
so it will be another exciting Women Basketball summer,it will be Tamika Catchings last season
all eyes are on the rookies ,the UConn force with the #1-4 draft picks !! Breanna Stewart, Moriah Jeffersson, Morgan Tuck and Rachel Banham,Breanna Stewart maybe the biggest talent Women Basketball has ever seen, I personally like Aerial Powers from Michigan State very much, she wanted to play in the WNBA so badly and is more than ready,she could have played another year in college but deceided to go to the draft
but it is never easy to make the transition from NCAA to WNBA, remember even Brittney Griner needed some time and so did Skylar Diggins, Elena Delle Donne was a exception, we have to wait and see
The Seattle Storm of course are the big favorites this season with the #1 draft picks of the last 2 seasons,Jewell Lloyd with a solid rookie year and a very good overseas season in Istanbul Turkey,Breanna Stewart and Kaleena Mosqueda Lewis who hopefully gets more playing time this season from boucek
well, we have a new franchise in the WNBA,the Tulsa Shock are now the Dallas Wings after the franchise moved to Fort Worth Texas, as I said with Aerial Powers one of my favorite rookies,a healthy Skylar Diggins back from injury,talented team that had big injury problems last seasons,the team lost Riquana Williams she is traded to the LA Sparks
we have to wait how the final rosters look like but I already dont like the LA Sparks and the Indiana Fever so far,Brian Agler signed three experienced but mediocre Euro players, Ann Wauters is a WNBA veteran but age is kicking in and she left Seattle 3 years ago to play in Belgium,I understand they need a center but that was a poor deceision,I like the signing of Chelsea Gray from Connecticut she had a very good season overseas
I see some problems for the Indiana Fever,they traded Shavonte Zellous to New York Libetrty, i will see that i updtate this thread with daily news next week, there are no future odds available yet,but again expect the Seattle Storm to be favorites along with reigning Champions Minnesota Lynx
Diana Taurasi,Brittney Griner are back from Europe with another Euroleague Championship and after Taurasi sat out the last season she is ready to play again for the Phoenix Mercury
it will also be the last season for Dan Hughes,coach of the San Antonio Stars,maybe they will do better than last season but it will not be easy,they have a promising rookie with Moriah Jefferson,huge talent but she needs to get more physical in the WNBA
