Laimbeer was really hot on Chandi Jones, and ended up getting her. The Shock sent Sheila Lambert, Shereka Wright, and Erica Valek to Phoenix for Chandi.

I'm slightly puzzled as to why Phoenix would do this. I know they didn't exactly need Chandi, but still... Barry, what's the deal?

Detroit thus came away with Chandi and Iciss Tillis. Both players have huge potential. It may take them awhile to develop, but Detroit obviously needs less immediate help than most teams. Seems like a hugely successful day for Laimbeer and his organization.
