Not really. "Die Bitches" is always going to come before looking for Alysha Clark.

“Always” is way too strong of a word.

I have to come back to this:

So 16 people think Stewart and Loyd are better than Moore and Fowles?

Stewart's a nice player and if she builds on her beginnings, could be a Hall of Famer. Loyd looks to be pretty good, an occasional all-star.

Moore and Fowles are first-time, no-doubt Hall of Fame players who have excelled at every level.

Do people hate the Lynx that much?

The key words you seem to have missed are "right now". I'm guessing people are voting on current results over historical.

They're certainly playing like it.

That's true, and the gap is wider than I thought, so I stand corrected.

But still, with one game to win, I'd rather have Moore and Fowles.

I initially thought this was best duo as in Stockton and Malone. Two players who ran the pick and roll together. With regard to that, Kelsey Plum and Isabelle Harrison were getting good at consistent pick and role together in 2017 and fun to watch doing it.

Maya and Syl might be the most historically deserving of the recognition, but if the question was "Which Duo is Most Likely to Win Multiple Championships in the Next 5 Years?", I think the duos from Seattle, Dallas, LA and Connecticut are ALL more likely to do it than Maya and Syl.

It would be cool if the WNBA would do some ads based on these duos instead of just the single player ads.

As much as I love our two Sparks BatWomen high-low posts, I must say the Dark Angel and Lori Ann is a killer combo!

Her scoring average is actually a good sign. It indicates she is trusting her teammates more than simply playing heroine ball. It will be interesting to see how this plays out when they play the Sparks and takes the court against them like a track & field squad . . . as usual.

The Sparks have never won in Atlanta when Angel was playing...

. . . except that this time the Sparks are blessed with the presence of the person who is simultaneously the Virgin Maria and the Messiah.
