Too many offensive sets late that involved 4 standing around while Lindsey was dribbling around trying to force her way into the lane. Movement away from the ball was almost non existent.



MarkWren -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (9/27/2017 8:45:54 PM)

I watch. I cheer for the Lynx as they're a Minnesota winner. But man, is this WNBA a crummy product. Just weak fundamentals, frantic mistakes all over the place--particularly at crunch time. If these two teams are the BEST in the world, then we are years away from true basketball excellence on the distaff side.

If you watched the fourth quarter of the first game you would have seen much better play. The end of this game was about as sloppy as any game you will ever watch between these two.

I really don't like Candace Parker.



TJSweens -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (9/30/2017 9:08:32 AM)

Parker is the epitome of a prima donna. But, damn she is a good player and a leader.

At some point the Lynx have to figure out that these long stretches where 4 players stand around on offense while the point dribbles back and forth at the top, isn't an effective offense.

There is really no appreciable age difference between the Lynx and Sparks.

Whalen and Augustus showing their age.

I just realized something about the WNBA. What's the point in having an Eastern conference and Western conference if teams from the same conference face each other in the Finals???

I actually don't mind it. The best teams meet in the championship, regardless of conference, which seems to be for regional purposes, only.

LOL. She actually reminds me of Kobe.

She's also easy on the eyes. [;)]

Lynx up 5 at end of the first quarter. Fell behind early then stormed back. But the way the first quarter ended left a very bad taste and momentum for the Sparks. Montgomery dribbles into a strip that ends up in a jump ball with 4 seconds to go. We give up a fast break off the tip and instead of shooting for a 9 point lead it's cut to five.



kgdabom -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 8:21:42 PM)

The Lynx take the momentum right back in the second quarter and have built a 12 point lead. The key is that Brunson and Augustus are contributing after being MIA in game three.



kgdabom -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 8:39:06 PM)

Lynx built the lead to 16 when the Sparks couldn't make a shot for 8 misses in a row. Sparks go on 7-0 run when the Sparks start mugging us on every possession with no calls from the refs.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 8:42:20 PM)

That should not have been a flagrant on Whalen.

There was a time I found her easy on the eyes. Now she is the enemy and she does not look good to me any longer.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 8:53:58 PM)

Up 12 at halftime. Feels like they should be up more.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:01:26 PM)

LA staying in the locker room for the national anthem is a tough one to swallow. Blows my mind. Blatant disrespect to the flag. Does nothing but hurt their cause.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:05:16 PM)

Man if the Lynx could hit their layups........

Feel like LA is a ticking time bomb, and the Lynx inability to put them away is going to come back to bite them.

Any contact and LA falls to the floor expecting a foul. Glad the refs aren't falling for it.

Ogwumike is a dirty player.



kgdabom -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:41:43 PM)

Lynx were giving up a large lead in the 4th and then Maya Moore comes up with a couple huge defensive plays to stem the tide. Lynx up 12 just under 3 minutes to go.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:52:52 PM)

Fowles wow. Huge offensive rebound. Dagger.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:55:30 PM)

Win by 11, and the Lynx didn't even play their best game. Will be a battle royal game 5.



kgdabom -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 9:55:45 PM)

I'm putting this one in the win bracket up 11 with 33 seconds remaining. Bring it on home. However, we were fortunate with how poorly the Sparks shot tonight. The key to the win was dominance on the boards with Fowles and Brunson.



Aaron Cross -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/1/2017 10:03:47 PM)

Augustus has almost become a liability. She has got to play better.

This is clearly a protest of Trump. Nothing more than that. I have no problem with that.



TJSweens -> RE: Minnesota Lynx (10/2/2017 8:36:27 AM)

Augustus had 10 pts, 8 reb, 2 ast and was +16. Yeah, that's quite a liability.

So because Trump is President they have to disrespect the Flag and the National Anthem? That is so much BS. The National anthem should be a time for all American's to unite.
Kaepernik claims he was protesting disproportionate police actions towards people of color. Which I saw as no reason to disrespect the flag or the anthem either.
I only respond to this rhetoric. I don't initiate it.
