I don’t think we were *exactly* built to beat the Sparks, I think we actually finally just got around to beating LA like we should have all the other times we let them punk us out of the playoffs that series. We barely got ourselves into the playoffs on our own. My non-impressedness with Karleen probably is similar to my initial reaction to Boucek. Except Thompson actually had head coached in the W. Thompson had taken over a team with according to Meyers, the Reigning MVP on it, essentially running the same system Michael Cooper had and carried them through the rest of the season and into the playoffs, but could not get the Sparks past us with home court advantage. Could not make adjustments to us in game 3 after her team killed us in game 2. We also have punked the Comets out of the playoffs with her on the bench in some capacity as well. All that said, if she has the capacity to make Snow a better player? I was all over that happening with Brunson when the rumors were swirling that Thompson was headed here to replace Whiz. I don’t hate, I just want to know what she’s done to make her the next big thing. I haven’t seen anything that floats my boat about her. No hate, just being honest.
