We're not beating the Lynx unless she keeps shooting and starts hitting. |
Agreed...sad to say!

This lynx team shoukd really appreciate Bronson's post defense. When she retires she will be missed. Best defender ive seen guarding EDD and CP3. Hybrid posts need to watch how brunson defends. Closest I can think of in the W when it comes to guarding stretch bigs maybe camille little! |
Brunson is the key to the Lynx

We really love what she brings. Her defense and then her ability to sky to grab rebounds are huge!

Maya does a fine job guarding Delle Donne. Only trouble is that it takes away energy from her offense.

Whalen with 900 career playoff points. One of only 6 players with that many?

Brunson and Whalen can dominate games without scoring the basketball.

Our defense forcing TRP, Cloud, and Hightower to shoot shots has been key. Taking shots away from Washington's main three.

Watching the Mystics today I have to imagine they'll be a dangerous team next season with Hill back and a legit back-up center(draft pick). Maybe Pringle-Sanders, too.

Starting TRP at SF,and bringing Emma off the bench could benefit the mystics.

Ideally that task falls to your best player, but alas...

I feel bad for Emma. This game has been a disaster for her.

G-Toliver
G-Hayes/Johnson/Mcbride

Why would we downgrade? Only Hayes is better and the gap in ability doesn't make up for the gap in attitude.

The only thing Hill does better than Johnson/Mcbride is shoot bricks.
