"There have been times when Becky hasn't been happy with her minutes," Monarchs coach John Whisenant said before Tuesday's 64-54 victory over the visiting Charlotte Sting at Arco Arena, "but I just tell her, 'Play good defense and grab rebounds, and you'll make this old coach happy.'

"My only problem with Becky is that she takes too many jump shots," Whisenant said. "She's big and strong and very athletic. I want her to power over people and get to the basket. She's one of the best jumpers in the league. In the future, we can work on her footwork and her step-throughs, but right now we need her to be Dennis Rodman."

Within reason, of course. Body art and piercings are not required.

Yeah, but teams are injured right now. And I agree with Whiz that Brunson takes too much jump shots. If she went into the paint more often, she could do so much damage. And I think she gets a lot of minutes.

Well SAC is favored by 6.5.... Personally, I think it could go either way... SAC looked terrible against NY with DeMya out, but great against CHA, but of course, it was CHA.. Confused

DeMya will be back in 2-4 weeks right?

So far, the Monarchs are 2-1 without DeMya.
