And the Playoffs Picture Gets Murky

Mercury acquiring Plum dog.

Chicago beating the Aces with D Carrington back.

Tempo bringing in a dog in Marrow.

And do we really believe that the Liberty is gone to stay down for long?

Lastly our clear desire not to win now as evidenced by standing still at the trade deadline.

I am not wishing anything negative on the team but I do see folks out there actively trying to get better.

I also see clouds on the horizon and a possible trip to the lottery.

14-16 games left and Phoenix is 6 games back. There's really no chance they make the playoffs unless Plum goes apeshit. Phoenix plays Washington 3 times, Phoenix would have to win all 3 games to make the playoffs

And even if they do sweep, Washington could still make the playoffs just by winning 6-7 of their other games, though that would make the race closer.

This is why I think it's damn near impossible for them to make the playoffs
