I was being sarcastic after plenty of people on here were ready to annoint her after one game. There is a lot of basketball to be played still.

[bullsky]

haha sorry. Usually I can sense sarcasm. I was about to say...

[MSUstudent31]

As of right now I think Temecka "Mighty Mouse" Johnson is the front runner for ROY..But I still have hope in Kara

Tan sent Betty down to the ground. I don't like her now.

I think what you saw of Tan White vs the Storm will become the norm. By seasons end I truely think you are looking at a player who will be averaging around 15.5 ppg and could very well be in top 10 in steals.

As Tan, gets more and more adjusted to the play in the WNBA , I expect her assist to turnover ratio to improve as well as the range on her jumper.

It appears the Tamika and Tan show ,is about ready to take the stage in Conseco and every other WNBA arena very soon.

League GM's judged Tan the preseason ROY for a reason , the gal has a total game.

While Tan's been brilliant, I've been dissapointed that Yolanda Paige hasn't played like she did in the pre-season.
Before the "real" games started, she was loose and had a nice flow on the court. Now if she does get on the court, she jacks up a shot and then sits back down again.
In pre-season vs Phoenix, Yo and Tan reminded me of "showtime" in LA back in the day. I doubt I'll see the kids on the court together again. There's so much potential there. I'm afraid she'll end up going to another team next year that knows how to nurture her talent better than the coaching staff in Indy.

Tan is an amazing player. The best draft pick since Tamika the fever has made. I just think that she should have been starting from jump. I think Brian has his "favorites" when it comes to who he plays. Yolanda is never gonna get confidence if she doesn't get out on the floor. Now with Coretta being back Paige is gonna really sit. We have a team full of guards and small fowards. He still don't know how to rotate them to me. Deanna should be starting over Schu, Schu is sooo inconsistant. Deanna gets out there and gives you quality minutes. My starting five would be:
Kelly-pg
Tan-pg&sg
Deanna-SF
Catch-PF
Nat(even though she's not been herself)-C

Paige replaces miller or tan
Brown " "
Ebony replaces nobody (Ebony sucks to me)
Jurgita replaces Catch
Jenny just sits the bench

[Slovydal]

I mostly agree with your line-up - especially about Deanna, but I have a little more faith in Ebony than you do I guess.

I don't see how Tan White is a point guard in your lineup...

[trinatrin]

because she can play BOTH positions. She's more of a shooting guard, but she got handles and can push the ball too!

[CamrnCrz1974]

Having a good handle and being able to rack up a few assists doesn't make a player a point guard. Beard had to play the point last year, as an example. She has a good handle and can rack up assists. But it isn't her best position. And when the offense stagnated last year, Beard turned to scoring...but no one else could help (see Game #3 against CT in the playoffs).

I don't see Tan White as any different from Beard in this respect. Her best asset is her ability to score, which may be truncated if she has to balance running the offense and setting up others while trying to score herself.
