Trap game for the Dream. But maybe the Aces will chicken out again and refuse to leave the peace and quiet of their hotel rooms.

the Dream obviously are the much better team but the aces played poorly against the Sun and I think they will play much better tonight. Will it be enough, I drought, it but I can hope

It's clearly not just a 'facial injury'. I article I read had Fred basically saying "it's not really a concussion" and then going on to describe symptoms that sounded a hell of a lot like a concussion. Can't help feeling like they're trying to keep her out of the protocol to get her back as quickly as possible. |

They don't want to say it's a concussion because she came back in the game after the injury.
Not that any of this has anything to do with the Dream or the Aces...

They don't seem to be upset because they had to forefit that game they didn't play.

Am I calculating my Magic Numbers right, that the Dream, Mystics and Sparks all clinch if the Aces lose tonight?

Oh, I left out the Mercury. I think they're in tonight with an Aces loss PLUS a win over the Mystics, while Washington's in with a win regardless of what Las Vegas does.

Weather is HORRIBLE right now in Atlanta! Another massive thunderstorm...and what sounds like hail at my office (which isn't too far from the arena). Which means horrible rush hour traffic snarls and light attendance at the game tonight. I'm trying to wait for it to die down some before I drive over to the arena cause it's really bad outside.

Atlanta drivers see one raindrop and start driving like little two year old boys that are afraid of monsters.......

Many go into the fetal position and hide until their car is towed or wrecked. Others head to nearest liquor store to stock up and get ready to take the day off.

1.5 hours to go 20 miles then another 15 in the car before an umbrella would do any good.
Will have a good crowd it will just all be south carolina fans who got in early.

I am seeing Blake Dietrich in the first quarter?
I think the woman they showed standing and cheering the Sykes buzzer beater was one of the owners.
I don’t think the Dream have ever had a jersey sponsor.

Did McBride's shot at 9:47 of the second actually go through the hoop? They changed the score to 33, but it honestly looked like it popped back out.
