The Chicago Sky were showing flashes of brilliance at various
times this year. They WERE among the playoff qualifier teams
at the all star break. They beat 6 of the 8 teams that eventually qualified
for the playoffs. The 1st time they played Minnesota they tied the score in the 3rd quarter
and they briefly held a 4th quarter lead the 2nd time they played against the Lynx.
(Minnesota had the best record in the league) The Sky also had 3 players appointed
to the All Star team and all 3 played well on that team. Home court attendance was
up approximately 33%.

But, the Sky frequently shot below 40% from the field and below 30% from 3 point range and they lead the league in turnovers with even more than the 3(W) – 26 (L) Tulsa Shock.

Sylvia Fowles averaged a double double and is considered a viable MVP candidate.
She was number one in blocks and FG percentage.

At certain parts of the season, Courtney Vander Sloot, Epiphany Prince, Michelle Snow,
and Catherine Kraayveld put together a string of strong performances.
Epiphany experienced a substantial crash in her performance level in the 2nd half
of the season.

The talent was certainly there and it was an interesting close-but-no-cigar season
for this Chicago Sky roster.
