I was watching. That Storm team just will not die. Really impressive how competitive they are.

With CBS sports,NBA TV and ESPN I really don't think league pass is necessary.

It's pretty useful and inexpensive for those of us who don't have cable tv

there are a lot of games still not on the networks. I watch a lot of games on league pass.

All four of yesterday's games were on league pass. I wasn't able to watch the NY-ATL game because it was blacked out in my area.

...Another concern is the recent diminishing returns from forward Natasha Howard, who is hampered with double-teams. The Storm’s leading scorer failed to reach double-digits for the first time this season and was held to nine points on 4-for-15 shooting."

Natasha Howard looked exhausted right from the tip-off. Crying or Very sad

Very insensitive comment on my part....League pass is very necessary for those who don't have cable, live out of the Country or travel a lot. What I meant to say is that because there are more games available. League pass has become more of a luxury than a necessity for some of us.

This game was a killer. Lots of sloppiness. It felt like the Storm had two runs all game that got the crowd into it, one at some point in the 2nd quarter and one near the end that was too little too late.

Some interesting refereeing like always.

Natasha Howard looking so tired I wonder if there's a minor injury or illness that she's playing through. But it's also two teams in a row with large bodies? I don't know. That seems to me to be something she'd be used to, but I'm not as aware of the distribution of size on teams these days.

One thing I noticed at this afternoon game (started at 4 Pacific time) in Alaska Airlines Arena was that the sun started beaming in through a high window in the 4th quarter at the Phoenix end of the court. It wasn't in their eyes at the free thrown line, but was hitting the court nearer the basket, and I kept thinking, "Why is there a spot light suddenly on behind me?" Nope! No spot light. Just the sun. Laughing

She is doing an absolute mountain of work out there at both ends, so hopefully it's nothing more than the effects of that.

Was evident on the live stream too, and looked like it would have been very distracting for anyone taking a shot from the left corner at that end.
