I wasn’t planning on posting another blog about how I felt Chicago Sky Head Coach Steve Key utilized (or failed to utilize) rookie Kristi Toliver during the2009 WNBA season. But two things happened:

It’s that time of year again, when the wheat is separated from the chaff and arbitrary picks need to be made from those golden grains. That’s right, time for the WNBA individual award picks.

With the announcement by Bill Laimbeer of his resignation as the head coach of the Detroit Shock, the WNBA naysayers have been having a field day about how this is the death of the league. Seriously? You’re going there?

Now that the regular season is over, the time has come to start thinking about who will get some of the various awards/honors for the 2008 WNBA season.
As I started thinking about the various awards, one thing really struck me about this season: the players are all getting better, and it’s getting tougher each year [...]
