It's no secret why the Connecticut Sun have been in the headlines. Coach Mike Thibault and his players want to win. Thibault wasn't sure whether the Sun should trade for Margo Dydek so he asked his players. “Asjha Jones probably stood to gain more minutes the way we were headed,” he said. “She said, ‘Hey, if we can get her, we should do it, because it would make us a better team.'”

Only four players remain from the Sun's original 11 player roster. “Any time you take over a team that has underachieved, you're going to make changes,” Thibault said. “They didn't underachieve just by coaching, they underachieved by who they were.”
