Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Tuesday, August 05, 2003

Talked this morning about MVP. Also time to start thinking about Rookie of the Year Honors.

WNBA.com has posted this run down of the main candidates.

I would love to vote for Teresa Edwards.... but to my mind, Cheryl Ford is the clear winner. She has significantly better numbers than anyone else. In addition, she's been one of the key factors in moving Detroit from the bottom to the top in the league.

Gwen Jackson and Kara Lawson have also had great years. But unless something changes over the next few weeks, Ford should win hands down.

UPDATE: Barry says LaToya Thomas should be mentioned ahead of Jackson or Lawson. She has come on pretty strong... but I haven't seen the Rockers play enough to know what sort of impact she's having.
