| I really hope the Dream get more than a few thousand at this game. Ticket sales look pretty sad right now.

8:00 on a school night is never gonna be a big draw in the ATL

| The Dream must locate some offense in order to win this series.

Neither fan base deserves a WNBA Championship when only 3-4K fans bother showing up for the semi-finals for their respective teams.
As much as I’d love a first time winner, I’m rooting for either the Storm or the Mercury becasue they have fans, who actually give two shits.

Mystics fans have had the sh!t beat out by an ownership that doesn't give a FF about us. They "have to" start renovations just as semifinals start? They "have to" move to a tiny stadium? After all the crap of "the Sheila" this fan base needed a firm commitment from ownership in order to return. Remember when the President and half the cabinet attended games? The interest is there but owners treat the team and fanbase as an afterthought at best.
Owners trashed the fanbase plain and simple. A winning team is not enough when fans are treated like crap. I don't see that changing any time.

I agree that Atlanta does not support the Dream as well as they should

I wonder about that every time they play on their floor and the stands are almost empty. Their team made it to a #2 team and they don't get a full house. Sad!

| The Mystics have finally sent out info about a watch party tonight. It will be in the Green Turtle restaurant which is part of the Capital One Arena complex. That means the game will be on some of the tvs around the restaurant, and food and drink specials will be offered. Previous STH watch parties have been inside the Center in one of the club level lounges, with the game on several huge screen tvs, with free sodas and snacks.

At least the Mystics aren't in the 10 pm game tonight.
It's going to be tough for whichever teams are in the finals to be bouncing between the coasts.

| 27-5 Washington on the road with a somewhat hobbled superstar. I wonder how much of that is rooting for a more competitive final. I certainly don't see this as a non-competitive game 5, but I also took the Mystics.

Massey has this game a 50% 50% toss up.
Good move by EDD to play with the Offensive Lineman knee brace (they do OK with it too).
Maybe the Dream can somehow convince themselves to attack the paint right from the start, instead of jacking 3s like an ultra-roadgame strategy.

| I think Delle Donne is gonna struggle tonight, and I think the defensive intensity for Atlanta will be a lot higher than it was in game 4. I’m going with an Atlanta win.

| Crowd looks anemic. Would be surprised if they break 3,000 tonight. Would not be surprised if the Dream doesn’t last there. How committed is the ownership?

Great player. Thibault gets all the credit in the word for that scout and selection.

Sucks bc the team is actually good . But if they dont show up at their best then i doubt they succeed in ATL . Maybe a move to Knoxville should be considered. Even back to FLA .

Or Louisville! They played an exhibition game there a few years ago and it drew well because of Angel...imagine YUM center has free dates in the summer.
