I'm sick about Parker being left off - after all she's done for women's basketball and Team USA in the past - it's such a slap in the face.
Unlike some fans on here, I do not think there's any uconn bias. I think the last 2 players on the team were McCaughtry and Augustus. I know the team would have been a bit short on "guard" types, but you have Bird, Whalen, Taurasi, and DelleDonne who are capable ball handlers. I think you need Augustus more than McCaughtry, but Parker would have been about the 3rd of 4th player I'd have chosen for the team so it's a no brainer that Angel should have been left off.
I hate UCONN and Geno but let's be honest - Stewart is a unique player and it's not the first time Team USA has taken a kid still in, or right out of, college. Taurasi, Parker, Moore, and now Stewart. Also, Griner would have been taken while still in college (in my opinion) but she opted to take her name out of consideration for I think the 2010 Worlds, or the 2012 Olympics.
Bottom line Candace handled it with grace and class, which is not surprising in the least. I think the 5 member committee needs to have their heads examined. Morons.
