Ogwumike back.
Kristy Wallace starting instead of Katie Lou Samuelson. Wallace got 25 minutes last game and was in down the stretch versus 15 minutes for Samuelson. But maybe Samuelson is injured.

Two ties and four lead changes by the first commercial break.
Now starting to slip away from Indiana as Seattle leads 25 to 16 at the end of the first as Dick Fain starts to rev up.

44 to 40 at the end of the half. Loyd has 21.

It's not League Pass' fault - it's all the daggone regional and national licenses that restrict showing live games.
I can't watch on Prime Video, either: UNAVAILABLE DUE TO REGIONAL RESTRICTIONS - same message I got last year when the Sky played in Seattle.
League Pass edits out the commercials, and you can speed up/slow down/rewind the recording. I'd probably fall asleep anyway if I were watching live - long day!

I'm at the game. Neither team looks what I would call "good."
The Fever should just keep feeding NaLyssa Smith deep. We can't stop her.
The Storm don't have plays if we don't get something quick. Jewell playground ball is working today though. It's nice to have Nneka back.

Agreed. Hopefully having more time to practice will help our half court offense develop. I am liking the willingness to move the ball a little crisper at times. And love having Nneka back. And seeing some of Jewel’s stuff fall. Oh, and I’m also happy that we seem a little bit more willing to shoot a 3

Lexi Hull missed a layup. She is supposed to be a good defender, but as a career 32.8% (21% from three) shooter you better have 3 or 4 shooters on the floor with her.
Boston has played less than Fagbenle this game 14 min to 24 min.
Clark causes another attendance record, this time in Seattle.
Clark with a turnover but Seattle can't capitalize.

Thanks, but my issue was with LP. I was in it earlier and it usually keeps me logged in. When I tried to get in tonight for the game, it said that I needed to sign in. When I tried, it told me that I was using the wrong user name or password. I looked it up and that was what I have recorded. I brought up LP on the computer and it brought my account right up.
I went back to the TV and tried to reset my password. I never got the email.
I was able to watch the game, OTA, but I don't want to rely on that. There was a game the other day that I couldn't get due to restrictions, I can't remember which one. I was able to see that game on Prime.
After the game, I got right in to LP.
When I try to watch a game on ESPN it tells me that I have to have a LP subscription. I can find where to sign up, but I can never find where to login. It just seems that LP keeps being the center of all of my troubles watching games.
Oh well. I saw the game and I have hope that Indiana will eventually win!!!!!!!!!

Fever gave us a run for our money. Maybe could have stayed in it without some foul trouble with their bigs, since I felt their rotation there was often quite effective against us. Boston in particular was impressive to see in person.
Clark had a hard time early, but I liked her body language. She’s clearly learning and didn’t hang her head and I think was top scorer for Indiana. I agree that her defense was decent. That fall at the end was just one of those things. I hope some of these new fans stick around to be fans of the Storm (or other teams). We had a sell out, but the fans felt kind of passive? Or maybe that was just Climate Pledge Arena. I’m still trying to get used to it and it’s not as intimate and on top of the action as the old Key Arena was. They did finally kind of get into it at the end.
Nice to see Muhl get some playing time finally.

| Aliyah Boston was -18 in 15 minutes. She ended with 4 fouls but I think she mostly sat as a coach's choice for Fagbenle. Have heard multiple YouTubers say that they think Boston is not in game shape.
