Winning this game would lend itself to optimism. Minnesota approaches these games with the feeling that they will get good looks based on how the Libs defend, as per Cheryl Reeve. Defending Syl and guarding the perimeter has been a challenge we haven't been up to for the most part against the Lynx since the start of last year. I'll be curious how much of a factor Stokes is and if Bill uses her more in the first half tonight.
Also how much they double Syl. It's a 5-game road trip so hard to say how much they will want to expend energy on rotations. My guess is no doubles early and passive doubles later, like how they defended BG in Phoenix.

| Pierson seems to play with a little bit more oomph against the Liberty. Is she harboring a grudge?

It'd be nice to see someone besides charles could make some shots. Tina needs some help.

Right.
It looks like Maya has found her stroke again which is bad news for the rest of the league.

in my memory fowles usually dominates when guarding her due to them playing different positions doesn't happen that much unless crunch time due to possible foul trouble

| If Z has a broken wrist the season is over. We cannot win without her.

Even if it isn't broken but she has to miss three, four, five games, it would be a disaster.

Sure you don't mean Brunson? She looks tired.

| Is it just me or are the teams on the wrong baskets via their bench?

| I am shocked that the refs in this league can no longer identify a basketball play from a hostile act.

| Highly unconvincing win, but they got it done. As usual.

| I'm gonna apologize to Liberty fans. I am apparently not capable of viewing a Lynx loss. Sorry I cursed your team.
