Satou Sabally trade

First of all, I am crying for losing Sophie! NOOOOOOOO! First it was Diggins-Smith traded after being on the Suns halftime and post game shows. Now Sophie! Is it the kiss of death to be on that show for Mercury players?

That said, everyone is saying this trade was a huge win for the Mercury. Just getting Satou Sabally makes it a win. Under the radar the Mercury got a solid Center in this trade In Kalani Brown.

Overall Mercury are getting faster and more athletic. Sad to see BG and Sophie leaving. I loved watching both those women play.

We are 2-2 on trading the Mercury ladies that show up on the Suns show.

I would also take any younger male as well. Find a kid on the G League team I don't care.

The problem with the Suns post game is Chambers and Leander bring zero energy or new perspectives.

Watching them last season, too slow, not enough athleticism. They brought in Copper. Now they bring in two others that fit that athleticism she brought. They are moving the right direction.

Really surprised this hasn't blown up on the news, etc. The previous owner was ousted for the franchise's poor behavior. Now this comes out. Not a great look.
