I totally agree with the statements about Angel. She is an amazing athlete and has all the talent in the world. However, when her attitude gets ugly and she has tantrums like a spoiled three-year-old, her butt needs to be warming the bench until she learns to act her age. It also seems that it's during these times that her shot selection gets nutso. These two factors have combined to cost the Dream games and the coaches need to deal with it. BTW, I don't think Angel is the only player the coaches need to get tougher on... but that would be a whole other discussion! Go Dream! Do tell us about the other players! LOL! I think I have an idea. Plus, I also think its sinking in to Angel that she isn't the only player on the team thats can score 30+ a night. Shes our star, but shes not acting like it with all the fits. I wonder if those will be in the documentary?

Sancho is BACK! YAY...I heard she was hurt though...sad news, we need her! Sancho brings that other rebounding prescene downlow and also stretches the defense (because she has a really good elbow jump shot) so Erica can get more looks down low and lets not forget her DEFENSE against faster 4's (Washington killed us and Phoneix did too in the 4 position (Langhorn and Dupree).
Now on to Angel, I do agree sometimes her attitudes gets to her but we have to look at her progress! She has gotten better. Its kind of like people who are known having an attitude, they work on it but as soon a they mess up and get one everyone forget all the good times they walked away. Also alot of good b ball players wine and complain to the refs for bad calls (Taursi, Cappie, Erica, Lyttle, Fowles, Candance Parker, I have even seen Tamika Catchings whine and complain and she may have the best attitude in the whole WNBA), so I do hate when people call Angel out on it. It funny how people are always talking about her attitude especially when refs call bad calls but if you check the FACTS she doesnt have many tech. fouls called on her. Let me guess...she knows how the whine and complain? Yeah right. Does Angel whine and complain, YES! Does alot of other stars, YES! Maybe if she had a coach that will stand up to the refs and yell she wouldnt have too. What she needs to work on is not letting it affect her game as much, use that frustration for something good. BUT for someone who has followed her through college up until now, I know she has come along way and thats all we can hope for...for her to keep improving on her attitude. I really wish she was on a team with a hard coach as some of you mentioned...MM doesnt know what she is doing and when you have a player as competitive as Angel on the team it gets frustrating (I will tell you now, if Catchings, Cappie, Parker, DT, or any of the great competitors would play for MM they would be mad at some of the line-ups MM make).
All Im saying is this...look at some of the older games Angel has played and look at the games now...you will see an improvement BUT if you look at some of the current games now as soon as she gets frustrated or anything, people start talking about how bad her attitude is even if shes not really that mad. People blow up her emotions because of her past...again, check the STATS on technical fouls, if it was as much of a problem as everyone is making...she would have alot more techs...ask DT, Cappie, and others!
