Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Sunday, August 03, 2003

The Courant on trading in the WNBA. It says there were lots of phone calls and potential deals before the deadline, but nothing worked out.

The Sun tried to trade for Mercury forward Kayte Christensen, but Phoenix wanted too much. Earlier this year, the Sun tried to trade for Svet, but that didn't work either.

(Svet, incidentally, played about half the game last night. She missed several in a row -- I must have missed it, but I assume she was injured again.)

The Sun also say they might try to trade for the first pick next year so they can get Taurasi. Two words: good luck.
