I guess money was the major factor. But, leaving mid season is not the good team work he teaches.

I absolutely agree with you. I see teams down 20+ points still playing like it was a 2 pt game. I think that is why you see alot of comebacks in this league. The players don't pack it up for the next game.

Yes EGD, the greed is not there so much. There is a passion to play for the game. Now, assuming the league grows, we may have issues in the future, but for now, WNBA is the best NBA league out there.

How about the Lakers powers to be not even interviewing Michael Cooper for the Lakers head coach position after 20+ loyal years to the organization, that's why he left mid season.

Wow. I wonder if he was even considered. I mentioned him in another thread about LA's next coach.

Just did some reading. It seems it is all about Cooper wanting to be a head coach in the NBA someday. Hell, The Lakers should have gave him a chance, but there may have been some unknown issues with he and them.
