-------------------------
In ohter news Lynx take care of Nolan Richardson & his team '40 mins of hell' w/a win #1 of 2010 in Tulsa 80-74

Looking forward to the home opener tomorrow. Both the Lynx & Washington Mystics will be on 2nd nite of back to back games. Hopefully the home crowd will give the Lynx the extra boost they'll need to get a win.

She didn't score well, but she only had 1 turnover against a team that was absolutely mugging us for the entire game.

I think the Shock might've been playing rugby...

We got one of the leagues elite PG's to run the show and our 1st round this year is putting up good numbers. There is no excuse for an effort like last night's.

The real bench is on the court already. They're missing 2-3 starters, and they're only really playing 7. Some people are getting major backup minutes now, but they'll get nothing but scattered minutes later in the season.

Heck, just look at what changes at PF/C when Brunson arrives: who gets anything but scattered minutes after Anosike, Brunson, and Houston? That'll be a huge upgrade inside.

When Augustus and Wiggens are back, then McCants will be down to scattered minutes, and Wright will be more effective when her minutes are cut down to a sane amount.

The classic, "Limited minutes?"

Same will likely go for Augustus, when she's finally back on the court, which should be fairly soon, too. Any word on that?

Brunson will just need to learn some plays. I have no idea when she's expected.

I hated seeing Houston lose the starting job, but after seeing Brunson last night I understand. And she is just getting to know her teammates

I was right there after the Twins game, but couldn't talk my son into going to the game.

She had a fibrous growth the size of a softball removed from her abdomen. Not sure if she has been even cleared to practice yet
