amazing video! i love how you don’t bash or bring down one player to uplift another player. i’m a fan of the sky so its dope to see a whole comment section that’s not toxic & just straight basketball talk & suggestions for the sky. keep it up bro 🔥💯
Well, it seems like your list is what we already had in the beginning minus Mabry. However, I am not new to the Sky, but I thought they were looking toward the draft to get player or players in the first round to help. Their bench play was very lacking toward the end. It especially showed once most of the starters went down with injuries. But Carter is a hooper lover her. Of course, the twin towers Cardoso and Reese. But Allen and Onyenwere I don't know.
I am a fan of the Sky, I watch every game they play, I follow them....the players need to play and be coached and NOT set the culture to their liking. That's the Coaches, his staff and the organizations job. Angel and Kamilla are outstanding players, they need more but they will be hungry and improve
Personally, I think Angel is going to move into the point forward position lile she originally was in college. This is something her and t spoon talked about at the beginning of the season. This is also why she is one of the main distributors on the team. This is probably why she is working with banham, Jefferson, e.will. in the offseason before going into unrivaled and working out with Collier. Jefferson will help out with her passing, e will will help out with shoot blocking and close to the basket layups that she can practice on her, Bannon will help out with her. Three-point. And collier is most likely just all around game and to enhance her defense. They are in need of a point still especially one that can shoot. I really want them to pick up pao pao. Her already working with Mila and also playing against Reese she would already know how to instinctively play with them.
I do hope next year the Sky is going be much better with Kamilla, Angel, and chennedy (if she returns) as the core of this team and they just need a guard that is a good shooter.
I'll be interested to see if the Sky can ever be a championship contending team without Angel or Kamilla getting very efficient from outside the paint. If you look at the top teams, the Liberty and Lynx have 5 players that can stretch out. The Sun only really three, but they're elite defensively, and outside shooting has maybe been the thing holding them back from a championship. And then at Vegas, neither A'ja and or Kiah shoot a lot outside, but A'ja is so elite at the nail, I think that's what makes them work along with bringing Clark in at the 4. I think it might be best if the Sky trade E Williams because she's a great low post player, but they can't afford to have 3 non-shooters on the roster and could trade her for a stretch big. But it'll be interesting to see what Angel does in the off season. She's going to be a big problem if she adds even an average mid range and ups her paint finishing.
Yeah man.. big-time.. I think her and Cardoso should learn a thing or two from great point forwards like Candace Parker to bigs like Jocquel Jones .. and yeah good analysis of comparing those elite teams and how they stack up against each other
Lifelong Sky fan,I was pissed when they selected Delle Donne over Diggins….I would love to see a combination of Olivia Miles(we had so many turnovers trying to feed the post this year)…and with the second first round pick Azzi Fudd(put her at the 3 and let her cook)…
I have Olivia Miles as the SKY pick at 4 or 5, I also like Saniya Rivers as the most athletic guard or Wing in the draft. She is the MJ or Kobe of this draft. She has the potential to be a bigger Chennedy Carter, but also the best perimeter defender. Dominique Malonga at 6'6" and athletic. F/C . The SKY definitely needs a 3 point shooter, but also a point guard, perimeter defender, 3 and D WING . Shyanne Sellers a 6' 2" Wing from Maryland is super skilled.
I am a Sky fan...well done! I agree with the dream scenario...I believe they will try for Satou...I think Angel will do a little recruiting during Unrivaled. But shooting, shooting and more shooting is needed. Hope they give Brynna Maxwell another look too.
The chi-town baddies 2025 roster 5. kamilla cardoso 4. angel reese (stretch 4 pin hybrid forward-guard) 3. Michaela Onyenwere/aneesah morrow 2. chennedy carter 1. lindsay allen/Aneesah Morrow (depending if teams go with a tall guard lineup) Bench. 6. Izzy Harrison (versatile forward-center that can make short and long mid range shots) 7. Elizabeth Williams (versatile forward-center that can make short and long mid range shots) 8. Aneesah morrow (1st round pick…forward-guard that can lockdown D) 9. Te-hina Pao-Pao/raven johnson (1st round pick…. Can make 3pts, playmaker, and defense guard) 10. Amanda zahui b. (get height for taller center….get Li yueru if can’t get Amanda but won’t be easy) 11. Kysre Gondrezick/dana evans/Rachel b. (3pt and D hopefully also 3 level scorer as time goes on) 12. Nika Muhl (via trade if not then diamond deshields…use players not listed to get 6’0 defensive guard-forward if neither DD or nika is available) Sn: the sky can pick up aneesah morrow paopao in 2025 with their two first round picks and if allen retires or moves on for more money/better opportunities in 2026 the sky can pick up raven johnson or kiki rice by combining their two first round 2026 picks..if allen stays we still will have draft capital to pick up whoever in 2026 to fill in whatever holes the team needs…the sky are in a really good position as a team going forward
@@soccergoal4090 Yeah Morrow is a Wing who plays the 4 in College so I don't think she's a great fit , especially given her struggles from 3pt range. She can rebound great though so she'd be better on another team where they need that. I feel the Sky need Amoore/Azzi Fudd honestly, Paopao and Miles are also good choices.
wnba play positionless basketball and teamball...you don't need a true PG to be successful in the wnba or they don't have to the point guard at the 1... chenn. kamilla and angel showed they know how to playmake they can handle playmaking duties...also allen is a good glue point guard....i have paopao to help with playmaking...the team doesn't need a starting pg...especially the starting the lineup... they in fact still need allen's veteran presence with the starting lineup....also i pointed when it comes to getting a true pg we can fill that final hole with raven johnson in 2026
also aneesah knows how to play off angel so it wouldn't be a worry, same with paopao and kamilla...and chenn and michaela and allen know how to play with angel and kamilla....olivia is good but we don't need her we need two 6'0 wing defenders....michaela is one but aneesah will be the second for us...
also i still made sure that chicago gets a dual guard with te-hina paopao who has chemistry with kamilla..the only person who needs a pg on the sky is Kamilla and was more of a chemistry thing then a PG thing (there were member of the bench that simply wouldn't even try to work with kamilla)...get morrow and paopao
What do you mean Chennedy doesn't shoot? She's doesn't shoot a lot of threes but she does shoot. She can definitely run the point and she can work on her 3pt shooting in the off-season. I'm surprised she only made 9 threes all season. Her clutch three against the Aces was one of the best shots this season. If she can average attempting 6 threes a game that would help the Sky a lot. Sky has a good chance of getting Satou because Angel will be trying to woo her. Angel will be playing like a stretch 4 next season.
Really good video Hunter! I am extremely high on Paopao she can shoot lights out. Honestly I do not see Fudd entering the draft. Feel she needs to stay healthy before any team would take a chance on her.
There’s a reason why Angel and this Sky team overachieved. I hope they keep Carter. I really do. Michaela looks like she found a home in Chicago. Elizabeth Williams staying is something positive. Harrison was in a grove near the end of the season. They have to let go of Dana, Briana, Moriah, Rachel and Diamond for sure. T-Spoon must take another step in the coaching department in year 2. Draft: Olivia, Morrow or Pao-Pao (If they get Morrow.) Sky should be fighting for a playoff spot if things fall in line.
I think if they want to build a Championship team they need to let Carter go. She has too many issues with players and a bad reputation with teams. Players want to come play with Reese but Carter might be a roadblock if she stays, and I think the GM knows this.
@@BBG2K I know the history and that’s the only reason I. Saying that. She was kicked off 2 teams, made Liz Cambage quit mid season and wanted to fight her teammate Courtney Williams, she also got into it with Satou Sabally. The Sky need to sign Sabally and I don’t think that happens with Carter, those are the facts, u don’t have to agree with them.
I think after seeing players like Dyaisha Fair, Zia Cooke and Alexis Morris fail in the league, those smaller offense only guards will really struggle to get picked in the first round like a Amoore and Van Lith. I'm hoping Olivia Miles has a comeback year and really shines so the Sky grab her and with their second first round pick, take a Pao-Pao. If they do get the second pick in the draft I hope they move back and get another high pick to maybe also get Azzi. Dream Scenario: The Sky get the second pick, move back to the fourth pick trading with the mystics to also get their 6th pick. With the fourth pick they get Olivia Miles, with the sixth pick they get Azzi Fudd, and with their tenth pick they get Pao-Pao.
A leap into what? A lake? Chicago is starting off in the most challenged position of any team in the league. At least Los Angeles is getting a great player off of injury (munk) and a top draft pick to build something.
What do you think about Olivia Miles from Notre Dame? She is fantastic point guard. She also needs to work on shooting as well. She might be the best point guard outside of Paige
Oh I’d agree. Second-best guard in the class. For her & Chicago, I’d like to see her in a situation that gives her more space to operate and play up-tempo (maybe the new expansion team!). In Chicago, they already have a bunch of non-3pt shooters, but she would help them from a playmaking standpoint
For my opinion as a new fan of Sky, Carter is fit in the Sky team, and Paopao and some one good player to come, and they also need a vet to lead the team.
Everybody saying they need a point guard is correct but I don't think the answer for that next year is gonna come through the draft. They gon have to pick up some free agents to get better.
There are no free agent PG that will make them much better. In fact there aren't many great playmaking PG in the league. This draft actually has a few very good PG so they should take one.
@@_M.... There's gotta be atleast one decent one out there...atleast better then what they have now. I have no problem with them drafting one but that's no guarantee they are going to make them better quickly since year one can be so tough on players.
The Chicago Sky will have to try to improve in 2025 under a new coach. Teresa Weatherspoon was fired a short while ago. Personally, I didn't think she was given enough of a chance.
Also Hunter, to help you audience, please add topoc markers ar the right side so once a new viewer comes in, they can see at the side the topics you will be tackling and sometimes this can get you more views
I’m thinking Georgia Amoore for their fist pick. She is a PG with pesky defensive skills and a very good passer who can shoot the 3 well. Her crossover is lights out. Miles may be the better passer but she’s not the shooter. Citron isn’t a PG and I don’t think they should gamble on making her one. For their 2nd first round pick I’m thinking Rivers or Johnson. All those you mentioned as possible pickups on the wing make sense. I don’t see Mitchell though. How would they play her? She’s strictly a shooting guard and Carter would have that nailed down. If Mitchell left, L.A I think would be the perfect place. Can you imagine a starting lineup of Mitchell, Paige (possibly) Jackson, Brink and Hamby? Good analysis.
Not a bad comparison, I haven’t thought of that. The thing with that Detroit team is they led the league in PTS & Tweety was an awesome shooter (42% on 3+ attempts), same with Holland-Corn off the bench. In an ideal world for Chicago to contend in the future, you’d have to repeat that strategy by adding a bunch of shooters, but also idk how I feel about a team-building strategy inspired by a team from 2 decades ago. The game is just sooo different yk
The Skytown future Chennedy Carter=17.5 ppg; 3.5 rpg; 3.1 apg Angel Reese=13.6 ppg; 13.1 rpg; 1.9 apg Kamilla Cardoso=9.8 ppg; 7.9 rpg; 1.7 apg The rest of the roster is up in the air dont know who should stay or who should go.
Good question: In a perfect world like I was doing with this ‘Dream Offseason’ section, I’d prefer another player over Miles. I’m generally best player available over fit, but when you’re 3 long-term pieces are all bad 3-point shooters, I don’t think you can add another one & expect that go well. I’m higher on Paopao than Fudd, but a shooter like that could really help
I like Kamilla and clearly you like her trajectory more than Reese which is fine but similar to Angel she needs to work on her finishing, footwork and defense. Too many times she looks big, clunky and goofy out there and she needs to learn how to really sit in the chair.
From a basketball perspective, it doesn't make sense to play Reese and Cardoso together. You have to ask who is the superior player in the post? You also have to ask what is easier to correct, Reese's shot or Cardoso's footwork? Personally, Cardoso should be your No.1 option in the post because of her size, her hands and her ability to finish around the rim. Reese is outstanding rebounding the ball and is a really good passr but her shooting mechanics are awful and that really hurts the flow of the offense. A smart move would be to seek a trade for Reese unless you want her to come off the bench, which I doubt they would do. Trade her and get a perimeter shooter that can spread the floor to open up the lane for Kamilla. Also, get a draft pick in the deal as well.
I disagree. Kamilla and Angel are fine. They both need to improve their post moves. The Skye needs a Point Guard in the worst way to start moving in the right direction.
They both take up space. Cardoso is more talented offensively. Reese hurts their offense because she can't shoot . Cardoso needs to play a high/low game with someone that can pass and stretch the floor like Rickea Jackson. Reese needs to play with a scorer that demands a double team where she can clean up the rebounds Brittney Griner and Aja Wilson would be ideal teammates for her You CANNOT run your offense thru a player that struggles to make layups.
You got to look at the coach. T-spoon was a defensive specialist when she played. So team is going to be built in her image. So they are keep both players and both players will improve their shooting. The game is not all about logo three's . Their biggest need is to get a point guard who buy in to getting getting the bigs involved and shoot threes to open up the paint.
They need Angel to come off the bench. Her terrible offensive game hurts Cardosa. Cardosa has a better offensive game and needs a four who can shoot to open up the paint. Until Reese develops a shot Cardosa will be stifled.
@@jendayiKa They had the chance to try this when Angel was injured and it didn’t work that well. Cardoso’s FG % actually dropped since she had more defensive attention on her. What they need is a good guard to help with playmaking and for Angel or Cardoso to develop their midrange and post moves.
They need shooting and playmaking. And they need to get rid of Carter. They need better chemistry and a better mix in the locker room. And Carter will never be beneficial in that area.
They need to have Angel cone off the bench. She needs to work on her offensive game in the off season. Have Kamala be the centerpiece for she has a better offensive game. Then have more ball movement. Angel can be their 6th woman off the bench. They need shooters on perimeter to open up the inside game.
Bro coming off the bench idk about that and who’s going to be their 4?, neither need to be the centerpiece, in my opinion at least. I respect your opinion for sure, her coming off the bench? I disagree, but her taking less shots. Yes, until she develops she need shots less, but this is where having a great floor general would help both her and Kamala. But outside with the last part. To be clear I completely respect your opinion
This is how we know you're NOT a Sky fan just one of those Angel Haters saying stupid stuff like Angel taking Cardoso minutes. THEY BOTH START. THEY ARE BOTH ON THE FLOOR AT THE SAME TIME!! Kamilla was on the bench because INJURY or Foul Trouble. Angel and Chennedy were the Only 2 consistent players on the team. If you want to bench the Sky 2nd leading scorer. Best Defender and #1 Rebounder in the League you need to Also Mention who on the team will Replace Her?!?!
If Chicago sky wants to win games they have to kept Angel Reese on the bench. Kamilla Cardoso is by far the better player all a round. Kamilla Cardoso sat the bench last year so Angel could stat pad her bullshit double, doubles and lost games because of it. Games that the team could have won with Kamilla Cardoso on the court. You want to win kept Angel Reese on the bench.
WNBA is starting to switch over to the fast tempo play style instead of half court. This means you are going to need a big that can run up and down the court for a full 40 min. Angel or Cardasso can not. Every fast tempo team they played they lost by 20-30 points. It soon will not be about defense but can you score more than your opponents. Defense will be a thing of the past. Sky ranked 11th in score per game, there is only 12 teams. If your team is not scoring an average of 80 points per game, you will not make the playoffs.
Chennedy Carter player Shooting guard all season. Why talking about her at Point Guard? And she played Point guard in college so she can play both positions. Terrible breakdown of the Sky.
That would only work if Chicago guards Actually made Attempts!! They dump the ball inside to Angel with 4 secs on the clock and shes forced to put up a shot in a double team. The Guards are afraid to shoot. Not Angel fault
Agree. She is a horrible offensive player. She is athletic but needs Kamila to hold down the paint with a stretch four as a starter. Angel needs to come off the bench as 6th player. Once she gets an offensive game then let her start. Kamila will get better in the paint without Reese.
She outhustled and box out all the Bigs in the league. She's a Rookie and out hustle the top Bigs. When Kamilla getting obliterated by Aja and Griner they switch out and put Angel on them. Angel holds teams best players under average. So let me get this straight. You want to trade one of 2 consistent scorers on the team. The league leading rebounder. The Sky second leading scorer. The 4 TIME CHAMPION ICON that's Filling the Seats best Defender on the team and Replace with who Exactly because now you SEE the BlackHole size Void your scenario created
There is no respect for the formation of the team which was 2005. That's the same year Katrina Hurricane occured. Katrina isn't import. The 77 neighborhoods aren't important. The makeup of the team is primarily of athletes returning from playing overseas.
Izzy’s defense is horrible she gives away more than she gets on offense the only time I’ve been impressed by her is in the game against Dallas and that’s because they have the worst defense historically in the league

I would not be mad at that fr😊
True. I don’t get why people sleep on Angel’s defense.
They need actual pass first PG which is Raven Johnson, and a more consistent 3 who is TeHina PaoPao
Naw raven not coming out this year n if she do she definitely second round

I really love your videos on WNBA and NCCAW basketball! Can we expect a video on Golden state and who they should pick from the 12 teams?
Appreciate it! I actually did a video like that on my channel!
With the right coach, Reese, Cardoso, Chennedy can lead the team to the playoffs starting next season!
Really good video Hunter! I am extremely high on Paopao she can shoot lights out. Honestly I do not see Fudd entering the draft. Feel she needs to stay healthy before any team would take a chance on her.
Thanks! It’d possible she returns yep
Annesah Morrow will fit great for the Sky and Paopao as well.
Annesah morrow doesn't fit the sky at all. She's mostly a post player, which they have enough of. Olivia Miles and Paopao Absolutely
There’s a reason why Angel and this Sky team overachieved.
I hope they keep Carter. I really do.
Michaela looks like she found a home in Chicago.
Elizabeth Williams staying is something positive.
Harrison was in a grove near the end of the season.
They have to let go of Dana, Briana, Moriah, Rachel and Diamond for sure.
T-Spoon must take another step in the coaching department in year 2.
Draft: Olivia, Morrow or Pao-Pao (If they get Morrow.)
Sky should be fighting for a playoff spot if things fall in line.
Good one bro .. I can't disagree with you if I tried
Great Analysis. I like the off-season suggestions. Sign Chennedy and Michaela. That better be the priority!!
I think if they want to build a Championship team they need to let Carter go. She has too many issues with players and a bad reputation with teams. Players want to come play with Reese but Carter might be a roadblock if she stays, and I think the GM knows this.

Cardoso work on post game with Olajuwon or someone with his expertise to improve her game for 2025

I feel like once they finish that building it will be better they don’t have the tools like other teams
❤❤ your analysis
What do you think about Olivia Miles from Notre Dame? She is fantastic point guard. She also needs to work on shooting as well. She might be the best point guard outside of Paige
Oh I’d agree. Second-best guard in the class. For her & Chicago, I’d like to see her in a situation that gives her more space to operate and play up-tempo (maybe the new expansion team!). In Chicago, they already have a bunch of non-3pt shooters, but she would help them from a playmaking standpoint
I love these types of videos
For my opinion as a new fan of Sky, Carter is fit in the Sky team, and Paopao and some one good player to come, and they also need a vet to lead the team.
Great analysis.
Everybody saying they need a point guard is correct but I don't think the answer for that next year is gonna come through the draft. They gon have to pick up some free agents to get better.
There are no free agent PG that will make them much better. In fact there aren't many great playmaking PG in the league. This draft actually has a few very good PG so they should take one.
@@_M.... There's gotta be atleast one decent one out there...atleast better then what they have now. I have no problem with them drafting one but that's no guarantee they are going to make them better quickly since year one can be so tough on players.
What about drafting Olivia Miles? That’s who I heard the Sky have their eyes on.
Great passer sucks at shooting 3’s
@@mmoncure14 hopefully she developed that over the break and I also heard that they want Brynna Maxwell to come back
Reese is better than Clark way more potential can’t wait til football n nba is over for next season
The Chicago Sky will have to try to improve in 2025 under a new coach. Teresa Weatherspoon was fired a short while ago. Personally, I didn't think she was given enough of a chance.
Please make a video like this in mercury and storm 🙏🙏🙏
I plan on it for every team!
@@HunterCruse14 thank you I am waiting 😊
DJ Khaled: Another One
APPRECIATE YOU
Gotta get a new coach first but we need shooters and a pg
Yeah Hunter... good job with this Offseason Reviews. Great content... all please subscribe
Also Hunter, to help you audience, please add topoc markers ar the right side so once a new viewer comes in, they can see at the side the topics you will be tackling and sometimes this can get you more views
Thank you!
I’m thinking Georgia Amoore for their fist pick. She is a PG with pesky defensive skills and a very good passer who can shoot the 3 well. Her crossover is lights out. Miles may be the better passer but she’s not the shooter. Citron isn’t a PG and I don’t think they should gamble on making her one.
For their 2nd first round pick I’m thinking Rivers or Johnson.
All those you mentioned as possible pickups on the wing make sense. I don’t see Mitchell though. How would they play her? She’s strictly a shooting guard and Carter would have that nailed down.
If Mitchell left, L.A I think would be the perfect place. Can you imagine a starting lineup of Mitchell, Paige (possibly) Jackson, Brink and Hamby?
Good analysis.
Chicago already said they not getting nobody short
Either teach Reese how to make a layup or teach her to kick it out to one of her shooters.
I feel like they could win kinda how the Detroit shock won in 2003 because they had a lot of size as well
Not a bad comparison, I haven’t thought of that. The thing with that Detroit team is they led the league in PTS & Tweety was an awesome shooter (42% on 3+ attempts), same with Holland-Corn off the bench. In an ideal world for Chicago to contend in the future, you’d have to repeat that strategy by adding a bunch of shooters, but also idk how I feel about a team-building strategy inspired by a team from 2 decades ago. The game is just sooo different yk
The Skytown future
Chennedy Carter=17.5 ppg; 3.5 rpg; 3.1 apg
Angel Reese=13.6 ppg; 13.1 rpg; 1.9 apg
Kamilla Cardoso=9.8 ppg; 7.9 rpg; 1.7 apg
The rest of the roster is up in the air dont know who should stay or who should go.
We want Oliva Miles in Chicago. She would fit this team well
What's your opinion on Olivia Miles Hunter, do they pass on her for a better 3pt shooter like an Azzi Fudd if she's healthy using the lottery pick?
Good question: In a perfect world like I was doing with this ‘Dream Offseason’ section, I’d prefer another player over Miles. I’m generally best player available over fit, but when you’re 3 long-term pieces are all bad 3-point shooters, I don’t think you can add another one & expect that go well. I’m higher on Paopao than Fudd, but a shooter like that could really help
what do you think about spoon as a coach? stick with her or should there be discussions?
Stick with her for now. Only Year 1
@@HunterCruse14 well😅
They don’t funnel the offense through the bigs the guards didn’t wanna pass the ball from somebody that watched every game
They need athletic wing who can score
As long as they stay healthy. They had 4 injuries
Buy till next year. The Dei referees will have to be gone if I’m going to watch next year 😡😡👎 🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️
If Satou Sabally goes to Vegas, look 👀 out
I don’t need that please lol they are too good
@@HunterCruse14can Satou Sabally come to the Sky.
I like Kamilla and clearly you like her trajectory more than Reese which is fine but similar to Angel she needs to work on her finishing, footwork and defense. Too many times she looks big, clunky and goofy out there and she needs to learn how to really sit in the chair.
They both need to run and get in shape
@@Veenic22not Angel she play whole games kamilla sucks
Exactly he don’t watch sky games he just be yappin kamilla is terrible she had 3 good games
@@WORKSbaby kamilla is just big….not too much to her game
@@Veenic22 exactly her biggest selling point is you can’t teach 6’7 most her highlights on this was from lik 3 games
From a basketball perspective, it doesn't make sense to play Reese and Cardoso together.
You have to ask who is the superior player in the post?
You also have to ask what is easier to correct, Reese's shot or Cardoso's footwork?
Personally, Cardoso should be your No.1 option in the post because of her size, her hands and her ability to finish around the rim.
Reese is outstanding rebounding the ball and is a really good passr but her shooting mechanics are awful and that really hurts the flow of the offense.
A smart move would be to seek a trade for Reese unless you want her to come off the bench, which I doubt they would do.
Trade her and get a perimeter shooter that can spread the floor to open up the lane for Kamilla.
Also, get a draft pick in the deal as well.
I disagree. Kamilla and Angel are fine. They both need to improve their post moves. The Skye needs a Point Guard in the worst way to start moving in the right direction.
They both take up space.
Cardoso is more talented offensively.
Reese hurts their offense because she can't shoot .
Cardoso needs to play a high/low game with someone that can pass and stretch the floor like Rickea Jackson.
Reese needs to play with a scorer that demands a double team where she can clean up the rebounds
Brittney Griner and Aja Wilson would be ideal teammates for her
You CANNOT run your offense thru a player that struggles to make layups.
You got to look at the coach. T-spoon was a defensive specialist when she played. So team is going to be built in her image. So they are keep both players and both players will improve their shooting. The game is not all about logo three's . Their biggest need is to get a point guard who buy in to getting getting the bigs involved and shoot threes to open up the paint.
@@123slasher.16Agree or come off the bench.
@123slasher.16 Britney would be perfect. She can pass, and shoot.
Play Cardoso over Reese
Easiest way to fix a season
Cardoso already starts for the Sky though , she plays center while Angel plays power forward. This comment is a little confusing.
They need Angel to come off the bench. Her terrible offensive game hurts Cardosa. Cardosa has a better offensive game and needs a four who can shoot to open up the paint. Until Reese develops a shot Cardosa will be stifled.
@@jendayiKa They had the chance to try this when Angel was injured and it didn’t work that well. Cardoso’s FG % actually dropped since she had more defensive attention on her. What they need is a good guard to help with playmaking and for Angel or Cardoso to develop their midrange and post moves.
I don’t think that Mitchell is interested in coming back to Indiana
Why get Mitchell when you have carter
I don't think she's 100% sure to stay with indiana but if it comes down to chicago or indiana, she would definitely stay with indiana
@@mmoncure14 Mitchell is more of a shooting guard. Carter is a facilitator
@@jrod9729 not until then last few weeks of the season or after mabry left. Carter is a 2/combo guard. When mabry she had to take on that role.
They need shooting and playmaking. And they need to get rid of Carter. They need better chemistry and a better mix in the locker room. And Carter will never be beneficial in that area.
Record 13-27
They need to have Angel cone off the bench. She needs to work on her offensive game in the off season. Have Kamala be the centerpiece for she has a better offensive game. Then have more ball movement. Angel can be their 6th woman off the bench. They need shooters on perimeter to open up the inside game.
Bro coming off the bench idk about that and who’s going to be their 4?, neither need to be the centerpiece, in my opinion at least. I respect your opinion for sure, her coming off the bench? I disagree, but her taking less shots. Yes, until she develops she need shots less, but this is where having a great floor general would help both her and Kamala. But outside with the last part. To be clear I completely respect your opinion
“Kamala”
Reese coming off the bench naw the team look like hell when she was on the bench she is the voice n will be back year 2 great
This is how we know you're NOT a Sky fan just one of those Angel Haters saying stupid stuff like Angel taking Cardoso minutes. THEY BOTH START. THEY ARE BOTH ON THE FLOOR AT THE SAME TIME!! Kamilla was on the bench because INJURY or Foul Trouble. Angel and Chennedy were the Only 2 consistent players on the team. If you want to bench the Sky 2nd leading scorer. Best Defender and #1 Rebounder in the League you need to Also Mention who on the team will Replace Her?!?!
If Chicago sky wants to win games they have to kept Angel Reese on the bench. Kamilla Cardoso is by far the better player all a round. Kamilla Cardoso sat the bench last year so Angel could stat pad her bullshit double, doubles and lost games because of it. Games that the team could have won with Kamilla Cardoso on the court. You want to win kept Angel Reese on the bench.
Easy, get rid of Angel Reese!
When she quit last year, Sky started swimming again!
WNBA is starting to switch over to the fast tempo play style instead of half court. This means you are going to need a big that can run up and down the court for a full 40 min. Angel or Cardasso can not. Every fast tempo team they played they lost by 20-30 points. It soon will not be about defense but can you score more than your opponents. Defense will be a thing of the past. Sky ranked 11th in score per game, there is only 12 teams. If your team is not scoring an average of 80 points per game, you will not make the playoffs.
Bring back kyrse
Chennedy Carter player Shooting guard all season. Why talking about her at Point Guard? And she played Point guard in college so she can play both positions. Terrible breakdown of the Sky.
Sky finished 13-27
Limit Reese shot attempts!
That would only work if Chicago guards Actually made Attempts!! They dump the ball inside to Angel with 4 secs on the clock and shes forced to put up a shot in a double team. The Guards are afraid to shoot. Not Angel fault
My least liked team.
Sadly, no.
Send Angel to camp Hakeem to teach her out to post, pivot, hell be a basketball player at this point.
I been saying that for 3 wks now. Hakeem would do wonders for her game that unrivaled unfortunately wont do
Agree. She is a horrible offensive player. She is athletic but needs Kamila to hold down the paint with a stretch four as a starter. Angel needs to come off the bench as 6th player. Once she gets an offensive game then let her start. Kamila will get better in the paint without Reese.
She outhustled and box out all the Bigs in the league. She's a Rookie and out hustle the top Bigs. When Kamilla getting obliterated by Aja and Griner they switch out and put Angel on them. Angel holds teams best players under average. So let me get this straight. You want to trade one of 2 consistent scorers on the team. The league leading rebounder. The Sky second leading scorer. The 4 TIME CHAMPION ICON that's Filling the Seats best Defender on the team and Replace with who Exactly because now you SEE the BlackHole size Void your scenario created
@@jendayiKaKamilla gets destroyed. What games were you watching?
@@seanstroman6087Angel Dominates one on one what games have you watched?
There is no respect for the formation of the team which was 2005. That's the same year Katrina Hurricane occured.
Katrina isn't import. The 77 neighborhoods aren't important. The makeup of the team is primarily of athletes returning from playing overseas.
Commit to cardosa and trade angel Reese for another draft pick..first thing id do
Carter is out she's not coming back
She'll be back
Get rid of Sid.
Get rid of CCCULT you guys are irritating
Start Izzy. Bring Angel off the bench.
Izzy’s defense is horrible she gives away more than she gets on offense the only time I’ve been impressed by her is in the game against Dallas and that’s because they have the worst defense historically in the league
They should trade cardosa we don’t need her she to big clumsy and in the way terrible player
Who care
The Dallas Wings 🪽 🪽 must have too many problems to fix in one video. 😂😂😂
That video is scheduled for tomorrow, but the problems are serious haha
@@HunterCruse14 Thank you 🙏.
I think Dallas has the most upside but at least their core players are back and healthy and i think that will align everyone
