I think so. I have not been impressed with her game.

i think the media is starting to realize she's not the second coming. She didn't make 1st or 2nd All-WNBA last season as she gained too much weight. She has skills but I don't know about her heart. I think she got spoiled by her success in college and can't evelate her game to the next level.

Washington is my loca, She's ok. Just having a bad year. But She did take them a long way last year. She's got some game. Very difficult to block her jumper. It's just going to take some time. You've got to remember Swoopes didn't really get it going for a while. Cooper had been playing at a high level for some time. Thompson took 3 years to hit her stride. And the same with Arcain. I suspect Holdsclaw is still feeling her way around the league. She's going to be an All star and will someoday be playing at a high level.

ugh,...no offence Phislammajamma but, Tina and Janeth sacificed their games to make Cooper the first option on offense. don't forget, Janeth was an eight ( yes, 8 ) times MVP in her native Brazil...not exactly a slacker. but totally agree with you that young Holdsclaw will eventually find her place and stide....she has game. i don't think her and McCray have chemistry though...something about those two don't mix well.

In Tina, Janeth, Amaya and Amanda, i still believe!
Mr. 4play has spoken. :D

I was curious

McCray hasn't done diddly all year, and yet she's second in all star voting at her position. Huh? In fact, it seems the all star voting is going the way of reputation vs. actual on court performance in several instances
I haven't seen Holdsclaw play very much so I don't know about the intangibles, but she is putting up good numbers.
