Sparks fans complaining about the travel and playoff system in 3...2....1!
Y'all didn't give a crap about it the past few years, don't start caring now!!! Even Kara's making excuses for you guys. Sorry, but after Reb Sparks fans shit bricks after they supposedly lost in the conference finals and it wasn't fair because the East sucked, it's only fitting that they are getting spanked by an East team in the one game elimination round that they rallied for..!!!!!! Heck yeah!!!! J***erb****, you gonna block me now? Sorry not sorry! Got banned from Rebs with no explanation for a long time simply for saying Candace and the Sparks were whiny asses. I finally get my time to gloat. |

Sparks win this game by 8-14 points.
Parker/Ogwumike will win the battle in the paint......Beard/Carson will keep Toliver/Atkins in check.....Sims/Lavender will score 16-22 pts off the bench. |
Impressive. Every word in that sentence was wrong.

| The lack of energy that L.A. played with tonight is the result of fatigue. Las Vegas would have played the same way against the Mystics if they did not forfeit their game. The Sparks were just dead on the court tonight.

Sparks look tired from the brief clips im getting to see at work . Sucks they couldn't play at full strength . |
It's like the opposite of the Lynx game. Parker playing fine but Gray and Ogwumike have been a non-factor and a liability. |
Could it be that Lindsay Whalen just makes Chelsea Gray look much better than she actually is?

Which is why you’re one of the few posters I respect, zune.
And I was wrong about the Mystics, had them not even making the playoffs.

Im no sparks fan and im complaining. Not about the format about the travel and basically not having any rest or prep time for the playoffs. Last year and the yr before teams had more than 1 day before they played their 1st playoff game after the season finale.

| I was hoping CP3 and Nneka would be able to find something physically. CP3 had it at the start but as the game went on neither she nor Nneka were able to break down the DC defense. I wouldn't be surprised if Gray wasn't 100% either to be honest. When Carson and Beard are your two best penetrators, then you're gonna lose. Between the absurd travel and very legit physical issues for their megastars, it's like what can you do?

Play better in the final game of the regular season and earn the 4th seed? |

That's fair. I mean, I think they were toast in that game too but the point is well taken.

I don't believe SDHoops' vitriol was directed at you.I think he's frustrated because he was unfairly suspended.

Yeah, the schedule obviously didn't help them, and they've got the injury/illness issues, but it does all come off as a bit unfair to Washington - who've on a basic level been a better team than LA this season, especially for the last month or so. Maybe the Sparks wouldn't have been blown out, but I think Washington wins a series against LA even if the Sparks were properly rested. |

They just played not even 7 days ago and it took a buzzer beating effort. Washingtons not 30 points better than LA. However they may have still won this game with rest i agree i just wanted it to be competitive for the league.
