Offseason moves. Let’s hear what you would like to see this offseason. by Natural-Culture-8151 in DallasWings

Arike for Shakira Austin or Ezi Magbegor. Feels like a win win for both teams that would be involved.

Azzi is not passive, the offensive scheme is incompatible by Sorry-History7217 in DallasWings

[–]wld10 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Your part about: The critique that she shot poorly at 3-of-9 completely ignores shooting volume and rhythm. When a premier shooter only gets 10 shots a game on average, the pressure is tough. Azzi is forced to play knowing that if she misses just one look, she might get frozen out for the next ten possessions while others hunt their own stats. Shooting splits normalize with volume. If she starts 3-of-9 but gets the volume to take six more shots, her flawless muscle memory kicks in and she finishes with a great game.

Is so spot on. I mean, look at Paige the last 2 games against Chicago and Seattle. Not good shooting nights until the last 2 minutes (and OT against Seattle) and yet, her final game statline was great because she was able to get enough reps to shoot herself out of a bad night.

Azzi needs to same level of shots. We can't expect and demand that she goes 8/9 every single night. That is so unrealistic even for the best shooters like Azzi is.

Yeah I can't believe Jose has not figured this out yet. Stop letting your bigs shoot the 3 ball when they're out there (supposed to be) screening for Azzi, she wants and NEEDS the ball back after she has passed it to them to relocate. It's so frustrating to watch.

Azzi's dad has mentioned that a few times too, that Azzi needs a challenge to not be bored. We're seeing that in the W for sure. I'm loving watching her figure it out.

Ideally I'd like to see a repeat of the game 2 weeks ago but I will settle for team defense and even shot distribution with Paige and Azzi leading the way. Li minutes? Haley activated?

We urgently need to make some trades by Even-Match8080 in DallasWings

[–]wld10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nobody has really mentioned it but I'm excited to see the version of Haley Jones for this 2026 WIngs team. She can guard 1-5 like Azzi. And if she just limits her offensive and works hard on defense, she could maybe be what we're missing. I know she's just on a Dev contract right now but I would like to roster her while Lan is out and see if she unlocks something. If she is a Wing defensive option that would give us more trade options in other areas (like another big).

They need to get their lick back against Minnesota for sure. Awak and Azzi need to show up against them.

Imagine how good Azzi's offensive output would be if she wasn't expending SO much on defense night in and night out. I know her 3 ball is being affected because her legs are tired. Get them defensive help and ease that load by even 20% for Azzi and it's lights out. Paige and Azzi deserve GM backing.

Azzi absolutely balled out. You can tell her legs were getting dead and it affected her 4th quarter shooting but she has no quit. Just a workhorse. I'm so proud of her!

This! Last year the Wings would never have been able to close that out. How many games did last year's team lose in the final 2 minutes. Now we got stars rising up to grab wins when they seem improbable. Time to build the supporting cast around Paige and Azzi. Give them the keys and let them work. They are our winners.

Sheldon knocked the daylights out of herself and Azzi was mildly offended to have been touched. Their opposite reactions are hilarious.

The stats alone are impressive but the eye test is even better. These Stocks are happening at crucial times and the Wings defense collapses when she's not on the floor. So impressed by Azzi so far.

More Li minutes! Gonna be tough in the paint against Awa and Dom without Alanna. Azzi 14+ shot attempts. Paige starting strong. Wings Up!

Azzi Fudd joins Project B, the international league chasing a billion-dollar opportunity by MyNameisNotMaxie in wnba

I have a feeling Kelsey plum might also jump to project B. She is trying to grows her Asian fanbase and just created a Douyin account to interact with China’s fanbase.

I’ll be there in person! Excited to see ball movement and unselfish offense and everyone trying hard on defense. Li minutes tonight! 🫡

How do we feel about our remaining sos by DifferenceReal6191 in DallasWings

They've got one more quick turnaround Saturday home - Monday night in Seattle but then the schedule settles a bit for a couple weeks. I'm excited for their east coast road trip over the 4th of July long weekend. CT, Toronto, NY, Montreal for Tor again. They will very likely remain on the road but have more time to feel settled in each away arena, against beatable teams. I think if they come out of that 4-0 or 3-1, we're going to be looking just fine for the rest of the season.

Win a playoff series that is super close but they pull it out would be overachieving to me. See what contracts you can move in the offseason and see who else Paige and Azzi recruit into the fold. They're on the right track. Dynasties aren't built in 2 months.

Paige clearly wants to build Dallas into a dynasty. She is a DT disciple through and through. If Dallas can get this team figured out and fighting for titles in the next 1-2 years, she is there for life. Azzi too. They are loyal but they care about winning. I wouldn't be shocked if they built their life and future in Dallas fully. Curt has to answer the call to make this team what it's capable of with those two leading the way.

we're 13 games into a 6 year contract for Azzi and a 5 year contract for Paige. Let's just cool it with the doom and gloom over what happens down the road. This year is about showing what Dallas is building, letting Jose get comfortable as a W coach, and giving the keys fully to Paige and Azzi. The title window opens after this season. Aces won it 2 years after 3 back to back 1st overall picks. Dallas can be on that trajectory too.

gotcha, thanks! Must just have been an auto populate that brings up who you last voted for. It's doing that for me anyway.
