This past year was noteworthy for the number of teams with high profile
players that DIDN'T make the playoffs. The Indiana Fever with Tamika
Catchings is one. The D.C. Mystics with Chamique Holdsclaw is another. The
most graphic example is the Seattle Storm that had TWO first team All-WNBA
players, one being the WNBA regular season Player of the Year, but didn't
make the playoffs.

Of the teams that DID make the playoffs, the Sacramento Monarchs, the
Connecticut Sun, the Charlotte Sting, and the no-name now-in-limbo Cleveland
Rockers didn't have a single player make the first or second team All-WNBA.

Chamique Holdsclaw (the #2 scorer and #1 rebounder) wasn't All-WNBA.  The
argument was that her team did badly so she shouldn't have been. Doesn't
make sense when other players were All-WNBA when their teams didn't do much
better.
