Message: [QUOTE="azfan, post: 5286677, member: 7748"] The 4 -0 w leading lLynx enter tomorrow's contest against Seattle with the number two point differential in the league at just under 10 points per game. In opening the season 4-0 Minnesota has the second scoring offense in spite of the absence of McBride and injuries to Smith. This outstanding performance reflects both a deep and talented roster and outstanding coaching. Minnesota has demonstrated tremendous poise in their undefeated streak to open their quest to defeat the Liberty for the championship. They're favored by over six points at home against Seattle in what should be an interesting matchup between the second and third most elite teams in the w. Jess Shepherd has filled in admirably when Alana Smith has been injured again illustrating the importance of roster construction and the depth that Minnesota brings into this season. Coach Cheryl Reeves has a long time reputation for instilling a culture of accountability and winning and this Minnesota team is no different. Following tomorrow's match up at home against the Storm Reeves leads her team to a home and away series against the million dollar coach and his squad. As the highest paid coach in WNBA history the million dollar coach is struggling to bring his career record .500. That would be the most he can hope for in these two games. Those two games will be revealing as we'll see a contrast in coaching competence, a contrast in roster construction, and a clear difference in culture. Phoenix almost certainly have the most uniquely dressed sub sitting on the bench leading one to wonder how many point guards would fit inside that jacket. Cheryl Reeves has emphasized the importance of the home court and we all know how challenging it is to win on the road in the w. Phoenix escaped with a home win against the Mystics in a home game that did not distinguish either the million dollar coach's acumen or the play of the big two. It will indeed be interesting if the million dollar coach is able to sort out those issues before encountering the w leading Minnesota Lynx I guess the question is at this time next week will the lLynx still be undefeated?
