The only other time the WNBA finals didn't feature either of the teams with the two best regular season records was 2006. Under the current format, Detroit would have been the #3 seed and Sacramento would have been the #5.

This is a bad matchup for Chicago. The size of Chicago’s guards means that Peddy will be effective defensively against whomever Phoenix puts her on (I would guess Peddy gets Sloot, Diana gets Quiggley, Skylar gets Copper), we have Turner to defend Parker, and I’m not sure Chicago is capable of throwing an effective double team on Brit.
That being said..we have 5 and a half players right now, given Bria’s minutes cap..and Vaughn who doesn’t bring much. We need Sophie back to win this series, or I suspect Chicago will just tire the Merc out.

Candace Parker did not make a basket against Phoenix this season

I hope Skylar just goes off in this series.
It’s been her season and she’s due for this.

South Bend will be the seats to represent in Wintrust Arena, she just might snap off for at least one of those games.

I am absolutely rooting for Chicago. Why? Because Phoenix has Diana Taurasi and they don't.

Can we play all our home games somewhere else? ASU? GCU? A high school gym? Someone’s driveway? |

Beard, Powell, or Taurasi?

Looks like there is no conflict for Sunday's game and appears we are in for another double header with the Suns on Wednesday. There is nothing scheduled for the 19th.
