THE WASHINGTON MYSTICS MAKES A HUGE MISTAKE TRADING AALIYAH EDWARDS FOR JACY SHELDON!



THE WASHINGTON MYSTICS MAKES A HUGE MISTAKE TRADING AALIYAH EDWARDS FOR JACY SHELDON!

What’s going on my fly family? It’s your boy Izzy. Welcome if you’re new. The Mystics just completely gave up on Aaliyah Edwards and really just gave her away for free, man. In my opinion, we are about to get all the way into it. But before we do that, y’all make sure y’all hit the thumbs up for your boy if you like the content. Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel. We’re trying to hit 32.2, so if you can help me out with that, I highly appreciate it. And don’t forget to get in the comment section and let me know what y’all think about this one. Let’s get it. All right, fam. So, if y’all don’t know just yet, the Washington Mystics ended up trading with the Sun, right? Trading with the Sun. And they traded Aaliyah Edwards for JCS Sheldon. JC Sheldon. Yes, y’all heard me, man. They gave Aaliyah Edwards up for JC Sheldon. Now, I’m not going to hold you. JC Sheldon, she’s having a pretty good season shooting the ball, right? She’s shooting pretty well. I think she’s shooting like 40 40 something from the field, 40 from the three. She’s doing pretty decent, man. I give it to her. It’s pretty good. But my thing is, you you gave up a promising forward. A promising Ford who’s in her second year, right? You gave her a for another guard. The reason is confusing to me, man, let’s look at the roster. All right, you got Georgia Amore who will be back next year, right? Then you got Citron, a guard that can shoot and play defense, right? Um I mean Melbourne, she’s okay. She can get a little wild. Her shot selection can get a little while. Um her driving to the to the basket can get a little while, but she can get she can get the job done majority of the time. she can get the job done. Right. Jason uh uh my bad, not Jason Shel, Lucy Olsen, another guard that can shoot the ball, right? Then you got Sudden, another guard that could shoot the ball. So, where is JC Sheldon coming in? Is she taking Lucy Olsen’s spot? She taking her minutes? Where is she coming in at? That’s what I’m confused on. Where is she coming in at? Now, if anything, I would have tried to upgrade my stretch five. That’s what I would have tried to do because that would have added a little more dynamics to your team. Stephanie uh Stephanie Doulson, I mean, she’s a stretch five, but she hasn’t been performing that well. Look at her. 25% from the three this season. That’s what I would have been looking for in my opinion. And instead of doing that, y’all actually add another player where I feel like y’all had enough at I don’t even know why y’all got rid of Britney Sykes. What are y’all doing? I I just I don’t know. The Mystics I think at this point they’re just trying to They’re trying to tank. I think at this point they’re just trying to tank, man. They must don’t feel like they can make it into the playoffs. I mean, they are right there to fight for that eighth spot. Yeah, it it’s crazy work, man. That’s crazy work. You literally gave up Aaliyah Edwards, fam. If that was the case, man, y’all should have just drafted Angel Reese if you didn’t want her. You should have just drafted Angel Ree. What in the world? But yeah, they ended up getting JCS Sheldon, y’all. JC Sheldon. Now, mind you, let me show y’all how Aaliyah Edwards was performing right now. Of course, it got low in these games because look at the minutes. Look at the minutes she was playing. 73. I mean, not even giving her a chance to breathe on the court. My goodness. Right? But look at these games where she got 14, 12, 16, 17, 18, even 10. Right? This one wasn’t that good. Right? We can say that wasn’t that good. I mean, she shoots the mid-range, so it’s not that bad, but wasn’t that good. 33%. All right, cool. Cool. You can say that she took care of the free throw line. Cool. Give her a bad game if you want to on that one. But let’s look at this one. 62% 13 points, three rebounds when you give her some minutes. Nine and three shooting 75% when you give her 12 minutes. Six and six shooting 60%. When you give us 16 minutes with two blocks, by the way, with two blocks. When you give us a minutes, eight points, three rebounds, one steel, and a block and shooting 57% when you give us a minutes. Come on, man. Like I stated, as soon as everybody started talking about, oh, Aaliyah Edwards can be in the trade rumor, oh yeah, they’re picking Kiki over Aaliyah. I said, “Man, I don’t know why y’all are rooting for that. That is a dumb move if you let Aaliyah Edwards go.” Dumb move, man. Dumb move. And then they gave her to the Sun. I mean, the Sun, they can’t do anything with her. Honestly, if I was if I was Indiana, I would try to go ahead and see if I can come up off a Turner. I would see I would see right now if I can come up off a Turner. I mean, the Sun, they’re not doing anything. They’re not doing anything and they’re not trying to actually make it to the playoffs. You might as well take one for the team for me. Take one for the team for me, son. Right. Go ahead. Hey, give us a little Edwards. You go ahead and take Turner off of our hands. We’ll use Edwards. We’ll use her. We’ll use Edwards. Absolutely. Absolutely. We’ll use Edwards. And she helps with rebounding. I’ll take her, man. I’ll take her. Why not? If we can’t get anybody else, let’s go get Aaliyah Edwards. Let’s do it. I’m with it all the way. And now it might be some that want to say, well, you know what? They’re adding defense to the back court. I guess, man, I mean, if you look at the advance, right, let’s let’s get a little nerdy here. All right, if you look at it, her offensive rating is a 93, defensive rating is a 111. All right, with a negative 18 net rating, fam. A negative 18 net rating. Now, I mean, if you feel like this is providing more defense, then hey, to each his own, but fam, it could work out. Players go to different spots and start performing well. I mean, we see the first game with Dja. So, I mean, hey, you know, now granted, I don’t think it was a smart move, but it’s definitely possible for players to go to different teams and actually outperform or outshine where they previously were, right? So, we’ll see. We’ll see. But honestly, yeah, I probably would have went a different route, man. And you even have some people who understand that this wasn’t a good trade, man. Look, no. Why would we do this? What the f? Mystic sadly are trying to tank this season. They don’t want to make the playoffs to get better position in the next draft. Sad for the fans. This trade is ridiculous. F you dumb B. Oh my goodness. Sell the team. Dang. Y’all couldn’t send her to Dallas to play with Paige. Oh, wait. Kurt and Chris don’t know how a team should really work. Y’all did her so dirty sending her to Connecticut. I agree, man. Connecticut. Y’all dare wrong for this. Didn’t even get my signature yet, man. Oh man. Heartbroken. Should have drafted Angel. That’s exactly what I just said. You should have just drafted Angel if you were going to give her up like this. Why not wait and trade her to Toronto for 27 picks? That have been a crazy move. Y’all should be jailed. Thanks. We would much rather keep you. Y’all did Lely wrong. Yeah, man. People are like, “What are y’all doing, fam? What are y’all doing?” Poor Leah Edwards, man. Poor Leah Edwards coming in on your second year. Didn’t even get your three-year try out, right? Man, that’s tough. That’s tough, man. Y’all know what I be saying? When you get a rookie, you got to give her three years. Aaliyah Edwards was only in her second year, and y’all let her go. Y’all gonna Hey, I’mma tell you one thing. They gonna regret letting her go, man. Mark my words. They gonna regret letting Aaliyah Edwards go. Y’all let me know how y’all feel about this trade, man. Do y’all think it was a smart trade? Do you think they messed up? Let me know in the comment section, man. I love y’all. Y’all keep it smooth.

  1. I haven’t watched the video yet, but by going off of the header, they made more of a mistake by trading Brittany Sykes. She was the best player on the team. I wouldn’t be surprised if they dont make the playoffs this year.

  2. She has shown very little this season other than that reverse layup that she does a couple of times a game. I would have kept her before Dolson though who has been straight garbage. Engstler is going to have to get more minutes and step up off the bench. She was solid down the stretch last year but seemed to fall out of favor with the new coach that most people in the dmv want fired already.

  3. Bro. You just spit my exact sentiments. The only good thing about this deal for Aaliyah, is that the fact Connecticut doesn’t have a true three on their team. Marina Mabry is a shooting guard, not a small forward. I have no idea, why in the hell didn’t the Chicago sky make that deal? What I’m seeing is that a lot of teens aren’t really about winning.

  4. Bro… this is a setup. All of these trade tha tmake no sense is how the leagues cuts them all as soon as the season is over. These are all of the CC combatants. These weirdo trades area setup. Sheldon, Carrington, Sykes, and the rest.

  5. 2 sides to every story and I think Edwards wanted out… I think she asked to be Traded… 1st round picks will be interesting in the future… A changing of the Guard so to speak… Expansion will mean more Jobs… Not just players but Coaches, Assistants Training Staff… I would like to see more Women hired for those positions… ✌️🍁

  6. Jaycee sheldon also was a first round pick last year. However, this trade makes no sense at all. Why even make this trade. Two teams tanking😂😂

  7. Sheldon is a scrappy player that plays significant minutes. Solid defensive player gets up in your grille like Carrington. Aaliyah hasn't played a lot this season didn't even start one game . She did well in Unrivaled 🤷‍♂️ Hmmm Mystics had 4 players in Unrivaled
    Two just got traded out of the blue🤔

  8. From the outside-in, it looks like the Washington Mystics are doing the anti-Fever…clearing out anyone who may think it's their team, and not their two young stars. I can respect that. Trading solid players for draft picks and salary dumps might seem dumb in the short-term, but I think rebuilding a young squad around Sonia and Kiki is gonna work out for them in the long run.

  9. It looks like Mystics and lynx are getting ready to face CC and Fever in playoffs. Getting CC assassins lined up. Surprised no one traded for Mabrey

  10. Disagree. The Mystics need a good interim point guard. They had too many front court players. It's actually a good trade if they can keep Sheldon next year to help break in the rookie Gloria Amoore.

  11. I don’t think Mystics need a guard. They have a lot of young talent. They are loaded in the backcourt. I don’t think Sheldon is better than what they have.

  12. If they wanted a guard they should have tried getting Zaza James or Quinerly from Dallas. They are explosive guards with similar skills to Sykes. The Mystics had too many PFs and Dallas has too many guards. That was a good trade, but Sheldon is mostly a defensive guard which a don't think they need but we will see.

  13. Mystics playing trades for next season. 4 first round picks now…3 second round picks. Mystics going out with the OLD WNBA and in with the new. They will be tough next year.

  14. Wow! She is such a talented young player. Sis can ball! Wow! And Britney Sykes so athletic, so gifted!

  15. I completely agree—based on what I’ve seen, Aaliyah Edwards is a stronger player than KiKi Iriafen. I’ve watched both of them compete against Angel Reese in the W, and Aaliyah put up 27 points, while KiKi struggled significantly. Even in the game prior to the Final Four, Sarah Strong dominated KiKi in a similar fashion. That’s not to say KiKi isn’t talented, but in my view, Aaliyah has the edge.

  16. Washington is making the kind of moves that should have the lead concerned. They were in the hunt. It gotten rid of two key pieces. If you take yourself out of the playoffs how do you justify that.

  17. After I saw Aaliyah's 1 on 1 vs Stewie on Unrivaled she was waaaaayyyyyy under-utilized by Mystics. Hope with the Sun she gets a chance to glow up. If you haven't seen that 1 on 1 do yourself a favor & check it out.

  18. They never developed her. She was one of my favs on the Mystics and totally balled out in Unrivaled. Bad move Mystics. Now we have to deal with dirty eye poker Sheldon. 🤮
