| Yep she could be up for biggest flopper in the league, USA will be interesting as she won't have many fans there. |
Oh please!! No doubt she flopped but Griner's hand shouldn't have been on her arm in the first place... |
Omg like post players don't body one another. That's fine. Call her for the graze on the arm. However, acting like you just got your head shot off should result in a review and an offensive foul. There's no place for flopping. |
Lol! Griner fouled her on that play, Nneka flopped! There are many floppers in this league and I agree it needs to be stamped out but I only see this type of uproar when the sparks players are involved... |
Oh, I can't speak to that because once school starts I really only make time to watch the Merc. I will say that DT is guilty of this as well. |
Yep she's definitely one along with a few others but they don't receive the same level of hate, it's remarkable to see. The dislike for the LA sparks and their players is unmatched. |
Lol. That's not true at all. I'd bet that DT and the Merc are more hated and cheered against. A big part of LA's current dislike comes from Lynx fans and the fact that LA is by far their biggest competition. Then there is Parker...so great but she has the ability to completely disappear and it seems to be more mental than anything...that type of thing will always get people talking.

| It's been a bumpy season. Kudos to LA, it seems like every shot is going in, awesome offense. Rooting for the Lynx for the first time since 2011. |

| 1:30 left LA up by 5 with the ball, Gray up top trying to use up some clock. Little comes to double team with Mitchell and Gray coughs it up.

Parker with an answer!
Little needed to just stay in front. She gave her too much going left that she wasn't going to recover.

Morre than likely my wnba season is over. Not sure if I will even watch the finals. Merc were so close to winning this game. Had it gone in to overtime they might have won this game and lived to play another game.
What was with that review of DT's previous 3 pointer! That was just an excuse to give LA a time to draw up a play or they would have reviewed it when it happened. Then another break for them to get it right. I knew all along which teams would be in the finals as it was clear that the refs were helping them. I do hope the Lynx get there revenge!

Maybe she did call it for DT but with so little time left there wasn't time for BG to get it to DT. You have to guess that LA knew that as well.

It got more interesting than I have liked but CP came thru clutch after DT was doing everything to keep Phx season alive. CP was like nope BG not again and made that last shot hard.
Congrats LA!
Y'all like doing things the hard way but I love my Sparks.

All-World cager, Candace Parker,
threw her gauntlet as a marker
to doubters who do question mark her
as the league's most valued sparker.
And to swivel to more drivel:
Trade that loser with the bun
to the gambling house of Sun,
where she can play some winning keno,
while she trains to succeed Geno. |

Mitchell and Turner are keepers (although I'd like to see Turner in a first guard off the bench role), but I'd like to see us put some major talent around DT in her final years.

Prince is also a keeper until proven otherwise.Last thing phoenix needs is a Williams/Harrison repeat.
G-Mitchell
G-Taurasi
C-Griner
F-Harrison
F-Bonner
6-Williams
7-Prince
6-2018 draftt pick
Damn...what could have been...

Not just holding her own, straight up causing problems for BG. |
Yeah it was impressive straight up help side boxing out BG. She was giving up inches but she was standing her ground using her long arms to make shots hard for Griner. Carson and CP made that final shot hard for BG.I had bad flashbacks to that game winner by Brittney in the 2013 playoff it didn't help that CP hit a layup before that shot too. Respect to Phx they didn't go down without a fight. DT might be the greatest clutch player in the league. Mitchell might be small but she was a big problem in the semifinals.
