Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 5092914, member: 6620"] I thought the Sun had a chance twice: midway through the second quarter when they made a push, but stupidly gave up a four-point play at the end to mitigate all the work they'd done. And, as you noted, at the end. I didn't think that push -- or any -- was sustainable without Mabrey -- who must've been affected by that collision with Carleton -- in the line-up for most of the second half (she shot well in the first). Watching the Sun in the second half, it's kind of amazing how that team got to this point time and again, which speaks to the drive of the players and coaching of Kirk and Steph White. Save for Bonner and Mabrey, there's no consistent outside shooting to open up the middle. And Bonner is pushing the envelope in terms of consistency. All the Sun frontcourt are UFA's this year, so it will be really interesting to see how Jen Rizzotti and crew move forward. Tough decisions abound there in the off-season and they're centered around the Bonner/AT combo. Will a couple split up at this time in their lives to chase different dreams? Plus, Brionna Jones is without contract. One could move Carrington up to wing to have a Harris-Mabrey-Carrington backcourt, backed up by Burton, but the decision on AT/Bonner/Jones is the crux of the matter. [/QUOTE]
