I'm tipping to Indy. Dream coming off a good win out in Seattle, Fever coming off a bad loss in DC. I figure reversion to mean takes place. Dream play worse, Fever play better. Dream have never had much of an answer for DuPre though she doesn't have DT around for the pick and roll. Wheeler probably starting at point. I can't decide. I hate to change my tip and then be wrong. I have no faith in either team. Confused

I was disappointed when the Dream cut her, but I guess it was her or Shoni. She is making us pay tonight. She was always a decent shooter, but had a bad habit of dribbling the clock out and then taking a last second shot. The change of address has done her good. She improved a lot last season with Indy, but is even better now. Pretty odd how she has developed without being drafted.

I'm starting to think Dantas shouldn't be shooting so many 3s.

All these Indy players mocking Hayes by falling down and floor in agony. Razz

Why is Rachel Hollivay on a WNBA roster?

Cooper likes her. He keeps saying she is going to be good. This year she seems like she is a lot heavier than last year. I think once Lyttle comes back, she should probably be cut loose.

She was pretty damn good last year, too. The minutes January's injury have handed her might've been more important than anything Pokey's done.

It's the Meighan Simmons Exeperience that I just don't get. They bring her in, and constantly run sets to get her outsde shots, and she repeatedly bricks them. How many does she have to miss before they accept she's just not that good at the one thing she's supposedly on the roster for?

So could Indiana & Connecticut both sneak into the play-offs and Atlanta falls out?

Attempt 15 more shots than the other team and still lose by double digits, nicely done!

It is a bit of a mystery how that happens, but I'll try: We got 4 more offensive rebound and had 5 less TO's. They had 22 FT's vs. our 15 (two of ours were Hayes shot after flagrant foul by Mitchell). So there was 9 more shots from TO's and OR's, and apparently 6 more because we shot from the field and they shot from the line.

As for keeping Simmons v. Holivay -both could easily go, but at least Simmons looks like she is in shape to play basketball.

I tell you Gwthmey is the new T.Young. It's a puzzle but when you consider how totally worthless Coleman has been this year, she's got her chance. At least she can shoot a little.

myrtle's vision of hell is a place where T. Young, Hamby and Gwathmey are the best players in the local WHBA.

Not quite sure I see the similarity. I thought Faris was there to draw fans. I don't see any Holivay having any such connection. Cooper just thinks she has a lot of potential. I recall one interview where he said he had tried to recruit for USC so his admiration for her potential goes way back.

Hey, she's shooting 28.6% ... that's nearly twice as good as Riquna Williams.

Shooting percentages can be misleading. Holivay is shooting 80%. Shocked

The Dream pretty much lead the league in Bricks I think anyway.
