so from what i understand they have signed 8 so far ?
IMO (and Im just a supporter in the stands) we need an international to fill suzy's spot and probably another big time player to have a chance of keeping up with the other teams - if not a middle of the road season awaits...
The Fire took Suzi so the Lightning should look at signing Adair.

A point guard with good awareness and passing skills would help!
Someone with 'up' side instead of Jo hill would have been useful too, but that's done, unfortunately.

Jess Adair was waived by the Minnesota Lynx today for health reasons. If she can get herself right over then I think she'd be a good get for a WNBL team, and from her perspective it would probably be a good and familiar lead-in to another crack at a WNBA gig next year. She's certainly good enough when healthy.

I'd say you're dreaming with all of those options. Great gets, but all bar Elena are already on fat Euro contracts aren't they? As Elena will be if she wants it.
Particularly big ask to get European stars down under. Americans a much more realistic bet.
As long as Marino is starting PG & Buckle is the HC the Lightning won't be challeging for anything in 2013/14!
And without Marino there wouldn't be a lightning team, don't forget whose daddy has the money. I personally thought buckle has been much better at dealing with her than previous coaches.
