The only thing that I disagree with in this story (all 3 parts) is “ The point guard had been deemed crazy among the Seattle community, as a result of bias towards outspoken Black women.” I lived in Seattle for 18 years. It’s one of the most diverse, welcoming cities out there. The Seattle community is not biased toward any woman sharing her thoughts, let alone black. People in general have struggled to understand strong women who speak their mind, black, white or otherwise. And u said a trade was inevitable. A coaching change could address the need for a change. I want Gold Mamba more than I want Noelle. And I like Noelle.

What is your evidence for "The point guard had been deemed crazy among the Seattle community, as a result of bias towards outspoken Black women?"
I know there were a few detractors on Facebook worried about her exits from Tulsa and Phoenix, but I'd say most people were excited to get her here.
