We can't quite stick a fork in them yet.

We clinched out 8th straight playoff berth last night.

Maya appears to be heating up at the right time - which is huge with Whalen and Brunson out the past 2 games.

Unfortunately Danielle Robinson looked like she suffered a pretty bad ankle sprain.

Goes without saying how cool it would be to muster up one more just for old timeys sake ...


How long are Lindsey and Brunson out?

As a couple of posters have already said; Lindsey is without question on the Minnesota Sports Mount Rushmore.

And that list doesn't even include her totally revitalizing the Gopher program as a player.

With one small tweet, that man may just have changed an entire career of hate from me.
I feel like such a cad now.

And trying to get better, so she doesn't spend the rest of their life kicking his ass in that, too.

It seemed really strange her retiring right before the playoffs. I would have laid 10 to 1 odds on her retiring after this season. Now the team can rally around her. Win one more for Lindsay.

Reeve says she talked to her about making an announcement. I think, in part, that is part of Reeve's strategy to get the Lynx going.
