    Monarchs Win!!! - Ticha Plays only 15 Minutes

    I didn't hear anything about Ticha being hurt either. I believe at the half she had no points (0-1), one rebound and one assist. In the second half, she missed a shot and then she was pulled with 16:56 left and never came back in. I looked over to the bench to see if Jill was working on her, but...

    M's vs. Fever comments (6/7)

    It was not a pretty game to watch in terms of flowing offensive. But the defense was tenacious and thanks to a run late in the first half, the Monarchs were able to distance themselves, and then hold on at the end, thanks in large part to a pair of free-throws by Ticha, then a steal by her on...

    Monarchs-Sparks

    Coach Bibby talked about it: "They outplayed us and they outworked us," Sparks coach Henry Bibby said. "We know how good they are. They are the best defensive team I've seen in the WNBA. That's why they won the basketball game. They frustrate people and make you do things you don't normally do."...

    Sac v Indy

    Actually, I thought Ticha had a bad game. She was 1-8 shooting, with 3 pts, 4 turnovers and only 2 assists. Her performance offensively against the Lynx was 1-7, 2 pts., 5 turnovers, but at least she had the 10 assists. Also, the shot-clock violation late in the game coming out of a 20-second...

    Monarchs @ San Antonio (5/27)

    Only caught part of the game on the radio but just checked the box score and our "Big Three" for the game were: Yo, the Warrior, had a double-double with 21 pts and 10 boards. Ticha (yes Ticha) had 11 pts for the second straight game. Also 4 assists and 4 steals. DeMya with 13 pts. and 5...

    ESPN on Nicole Powell

    Nancgo - I was upset too. It's hard not to get caught up in the raw emotion of losing players you are attached to. It was difficult to go to Arco and not see Ruthie, Tan, Edna and Lady come running out of the tunnel. But life goes on, and I really like some of the new additions. I think Powell...

    Happy Birthday Ruthie!

    She may not be on the roster anymore, but she will always represent the Monarchs to me. Happy Birthday, Mighty Ruthie! :D

    This is from a WNBA head coaches call transcript May 19: "John Whisenant – Sacramento Monarchs Opening Statement: We are starting off a fresh year, like everyone is. We’ve tried to get a younger squad. We were one of, if not the oldest team in the WNBA last year. We have a number of new...

    Chantelle Anderson to be traded

    I agree, Slug. I thought this was supposed to be her breakout year.

    Chantelle Anderson to be traded

    This is interesting...that makes OSR Yo's one and only backup. I guess this means Yo is safely back in the fold, and Yo's eventual replacement is an issue for the future.

    Purple Reign's Projected Roster

    Actually, I stand corrected. Koz just said on the radio that you can carry 11, plus 2 on the IR if you are under the cap)

    Purple Reign's Projected Roster

    Luv 13 - Actually, he can only carry 12 players (11 plus 1 on IR). That makes this even harder. Hoopmatron, I'm with you on your roster. I love Olympia's energy and enthusiasm, but she is too foul-prone (fair or not) and she hasn't overwhelmed me with either of her performances. Miao has...

    merc/monarchs

    Scott would get the veteran's minimum of $45,427. Chantelle, because of her first round pick, gets $41,600 this season. The rookie salary (ie which includes Greenwalt) would be $31,200. I believe Chantelle has one more year on her contract, which is why I think they would have to trade her...

    You're obviously forgetting the time she came out with her shorts on backwards.:D (At least I think that was Katy)

    2 waived

    Actually, she was great against the Chinese team. She scored 17 pts. and had 7 rebounds in 17 minutes. I agree it's time to start transitioning to your regular team, but I really would have had Greenwalt and Scott vying for that last post position. I guess it's a moot point anyway.
