LA owns us right now. We just can't handle their defensive pressure. They've built on what they did well against us last season.

Maya needs to do more. She needs to take pressure off Syl.

Speaking of turnovers and Syl...Protect the damn ball. She's averaging over 4/game, and only has 2 games with less than 4.

On the positive, Alexis Jones played well and I liked what I saw from Zandalasini in extended minutes.

I heard the General Manager really let her have it after the game.

The GM should probably look in the mirror.

You should email that to Judd and Mackay

Status: online 		As much as I admire the commitment to the vets, it seems to be catching up to us.

Lindsay and Seimone can’t guard anyone, and are getting destroyed by speed. I saw more defensive switching in the last game than I’ve ever seen in a WNBA game. If that’s our answer on defense, we need to get way better at it quick.

And Maya needs to start being more selfish and playing like an MVP. She’s playing like Robin to Fowles Batman, and we need 2 Batmen...

Lindsay, in particular, has been MUCH better the past 2 games.

Yeah, I was super excited about adding her last year. But she just got here too late to really be a factor.

She's also quite versatile. I think she has been asked defend at least 4 positions was effective at all of them. She is smart enough to know the offensive game from 2, 3 and 4. Her best moment is still the inbound steal and basket with 2 seconds to go.

I think I'll wait for Minnyme's assessment.

About time. The downside is 5 points 1 rebound combined on 2-11 shooting from Whalen and Augustus. It is safe to start watching again, but if those two aren't contributing I don't see us being a contender.

They're getting the old Yankee/Laker and newer Patriot/Warrior treatment from the league this year .... and not answering very well.
