Huge bounce back win to knock of the Sparks.

Also congrats to the amazing Rebekkah Brunson!

After grabbing her 3,318th career rebound, Minnesota Lynx legend Rebekkah Brunson became the WNBA’s all-time leading rebounder. Her 12 rebounds in this game pushed her from third to first in the history of the league, passing Lisa Leslie and then Tamika Catchings.

Lynx down four with five minutes to go at home against the Aces. If they pull it out Whalen was huge this game.

Horrible loss at home. Wasted Whalen's best game of the year. We lost because Fowles and Moore could not shoot straight. Simple as that.

The Lynx do seem to have off years after winning championships. They may be the team that nobody wants to play in the playoffs, though. We'll see. They have spoiled us.

They have two of the best younger players- well Moore isn't young anymore, but she's not old- so I don't think they're going to be a bad team any time soon, but they have a lot of veterans who are with a lot of mileage on them.

Another rough loss.

Missing Brunson is what absolutely killed us. She's the key to our defense. Her ability to switch, hedge and recover masks a ton of warts. Especially for Whalen and Seimone who are both incapable of guarding anyone anymore.

The Suns are embarrassing us at Target Center! Why is Whalen even on the floor down 27 points with 7 minutes remaining?!?!

So the Ace player was right...

What was the uproar all about?

And listen to the audio clip. She didn't even say they were old in a negative way. She clearly meant they were a veteran team.

Thigh injury.

How do you get a thigh injury that's serious enough to miss multiple games? I don't get that at all. It better be a broken femur or a torn muscle.

Lynx need to get their shit together. We can't lose to the 7-17 Liberty at home.

Epic struggle to get it done.
Kind of disturbing.
Somethings wrong.
Have they finally reached burnout?
I'm not going to rip them one bit.

No. It's an absolute fact. Whalen in particular is showing here age. She only played 6 minutes against the Fever. There is no consistent scoring option behind the big two. On top of that, Maya has not found her shooting touch. She is 5% and 6% below her career shooting and 3 pt percentages respectively.

So why was that Vegas player booed when she said the Lynx are old?

Because Reeve made a big stink about her saying it.

Yup.

Whalen and Seimone still have scoring moments, but neither one can guard anyone anymore.

Maya is playing like a really good player, not an MVP. It seems she rarely takes over games.

And we just don't have the outside shooting to make teams pay for doubling Big Syl.
