Think my favorite Reese story is her complaining about paying $8,000/month in rent when she was making like $75K per year.  That went over real well.
haven't heard that one but who pays $8000 a month in rent?  That's 96,000 a year.  dumb money management.

you can get mortgages that don't cost nearly that much.

She has been over 8 defensive rebounds both years.  Her defensive rebound percentage last year was 31.2 good for 2nd in the league and she was also 2nd the year before at 29.6. Morrow a rookie who played under 19 mpg had just 4.8 drpg had the top drb% last year. 

She does get a lot of offensive rebounds, but she also gets a lot of defensive ones. I mean only Wilson and Thomas has more total rebounds per game than Reese's  8.5 defensive rebounds per game.  She is an absolutey elite rebounder.

She's made some missteps with her brand and I think Chicago tired of her, but I think she's a winning basketball player.

She plays so hard and is really, really competetive. You can't teach that. She also does a few things at an elite level.

I think if a coach can curtail some of her turnovers and bad shots, then she can be a key piece on a championship team.

The whole thing was ridiculous.  She was using her endorsement/sponsorship money to cover herself but $8,000/month in Chicago is wild.  Chicago is not NY or Boston. 

She eventually bought a place in Lemont which is the middle of nowhere(southwest suburbs) and not the easiest drive to Wintrust (south loop area) where the the Sky play.

Whole thing was mindboggling.
