I think the addition of Hines-Allen has worked beyond the expectations of those that made the trade for the Lynx. In addition to her toughness, she's an adept facilitator on offense, with high screens, quick ball movement which often result in "hockey assists."  Great weak-side defense, too.

Connecticut has also benefited from a mid-season trade; that of Marina Mabrey. With her, the outside shooting and threat thereof is paramount, but she too brings other elements: more than willing to set screens in and around the paint to free up her teammates, before spinning out as a "pop" or doing it all over again. With Harris down, she's taking some turns from Thomas in facilitating the Sun offense and on the other side of the ball, she'll get to it on defense.

Both of these players will be critical to the teams in this series.   BTW, the other note I have for Connecticut is Bonner is starting to assert herself on offense and defense. That will be necessary to slow down the 'Phee train.
