Still waiting. Been waiting for two days for the Lynx to finish the deal. But now it looks like it won't happen.
Charlotte decided that it really wanted Powell. It wasn't willing to give her up for the 6 and 7 picks. (Seems silly to me -- Powell is great, trading her for both Christon and Hayden seems like a good deal.)
And Connecticut has been playing hardball. "So far they haven't made anything that resembles a good trade offer," coach Thibault. "For a team to say they've done everything they could do to try to land her would not be an accurate statement."
Crap.
