I didn't know if she could shoot at a pro level. Whelp...
She's impressive, but I can't help rooting against her. At least a little. Her departure was poorly done, especially poisoning the well with other players.
And my hypothesis about last season is that Westbeld's return pretty violently disrupted the on court and off court chemistry. Pretty sure her return ended our run of total dominance--Hannah and Miles were absolutely killing it together when it was basically just them. And not only was she another established scorer to "feed" (which is often enough), she was dating one of our two stars. I'm not saying Westbeld caused the problems as much as I think her return did something very bad to the chemistry between Hannah and Miles. It's a circumstantial case, but I think it's a decent one.
