Dream TV

Just a reminder...if you haven't yet, you need to go to Atlanta Dream.net (which is the WNBA Dream home page) and go down to "Dream TV". In the lower right hand corner of the front page there are three parts of a radio interview between the DeeJays of V103 in Atlanta - I believe it's Frank and Wanda - and a list of Dream players including:

* Marynell Meadors
* Betty Lennox
* Ivory Latta
* Stacey Lovelace (this lets you know how long ago this was taped)

This must have been taped before all the losing set in - everyone is having a great time. Betty Lennox's pink "Air Jordan" jacket is particularly kicking.

Stacey Lovelace Waived by Shock

Stacey Lovelace was waived by the Detroit Shock. I guess whatever was going on with Stacey was bigger than both teams. Lovelace would only play seven games with the Shock...and her player file page at WNBA.com has been pulled....

Lovelace Signs With Shock

According to a poster on the Rebkell Message Boards, Stacey Lovelace has just signed with the Detroit Shock.

Stacey should be happy there -- she went to high school in Detroit -- but frankly, we should have gotten something for her. We gave her away for nothing. What the hell was that all about?

Stacey Lovelace Waived

It's official. She's missed the last two games with "personal reasons", and now she's gone. (Look under July 8th.) The last game she played was the home game against Phoenix, when she scored two points.

For the Dream, she averaged 17.2 minutes a game, 6.1 points per game, with 3.6 rebounds per game.

Whatever her problems are, I hope she is able to put them behind her and be in the WNBA next year.

P. S. This would have been posted earlier, but whenever a drop of water falls outside I lose my wireless internet. They should call it "waterless internet".

Assisted and Unassisted Field Goals

Some interesting stats by Swanny. Go for the complete list at the link.

Swanny has three list where Atlanta has players on the top 10 or 20. The first is Highest Percentage of Assisted Field Goals. We have two players on that list. Stacey Lovelace is fifth with 85.7 percent of her field goals coming on assists (30-35). Katie Feenstra is eighth on the list with 82.8 percent (24-29). (The leader? Noelle Quinn of the Lynx, with 88.9 percent assisted.)

The second list is Highest Percentage of Unassisted Field Goals. Ivory Latta is ninth on that list with 65.6 percent (40-61). (The leader? Ticha Penicheiro of the Monarchs with 88.1 percent unassisted.)

The third list might be the most interesting...Top Assist Pairs. Tied for tenth with two other pairs is the pair Betty Lennox FROM Ivory Latta. Ivory, when she isn't making her own shots, has assisted Betty 19 times this year. The top of the list is Lauren Jackson FROM Sue Bird, an amazing 44 times.
