Reeves was seething about that when they tried to interview her in the 4th quarter after the Lynx had closed it to single digits. The Lynx need to learn to adjust faster when a good defensive team makes it difficult to feed Big Syl.

If you had asked me if it would be possible for the Lynx to ever fall behind 28-2 in a game I would have said that is just about outside the realm of possibility.

First there was the 28-2 deficit that I missed while watching the Vikings. Second there was Freaking Chelsea Gray raining shots on us to thwart our comeback and the dagger with 2 seconds to go.
Her play was simply all world for this one game.

Interesting markets: The top five markets were: Nashville (4.6); Minneapolis (1.9); Birmingham (1.2); Hartford-New Haven (1.3); and Knoxville (1.1). Los Angeles delivered a 0.7 metered market rating.

I don't get why Nashville was way higher ratings then Mpls.

kg, finally a post I can agree with. Weird. Must have something to do with no baseball or men's hoops in Nashville.

Only downside is......

she's latching onto PA's catchphrases (if I'm remembering correctly).

Augustus turned back the clock in that last game, but it is true we are aging. However, We have Maya and Syl and that will be good enough. Unless FREAKING CHELSEA GRAY has a repeat of that last game.

Nah, it's the Uconn and Tennessee effect in general.

What I posted didn't invalidate your statement, only added a little extra context to it.

Have a little faith in yourself, Matt.

Lose game 1 on a buzzer beater, rout them in Game 2.

Hopefully today's game will stick to the plan for 4 quarters.
