Minnesota catching fire..up by 1 now.

 

[Kaizen]

Crystal has 5 three, 17 pts. Min 73, Dal 71

 

[bballnut90]

Minnesota can't miss from deep. Ty Harris really struggling...couple of awful TOs and bad defensive possessions. Minnesota up by 7. Zero ball movement on Dallas.

 

[Kaizen]

Phessa is on fire, 3 - three, 16 pts...

 

[bballnut90]

Arike trying to do it all and it isn't working. Poor shooting night for her. Minnesota with ball up 6.

 

[Kaizen]

Great move Crystal, 21 pts, Min 89 - 79

 

[nwhoopfan]

Crazy +/- score of the night: Herbert-Harrigan at +30 in only 20 minutes.

 

[bballnut90]

Dangerfield is outstanding. No idea how she dropped to 16 in the draft. Especially below all the NYL rookies besides Sabrina/Walker.

 

[bballnut90]

Crazy +/- score of the night: Herbert-Harrigan at +30 in only 20 minutes.

She looks really good out there tonight. Reeve is doing an outstanding job meshing these players together. They're a lot better than they look on paper, especially considering they're without Fowles

 

[nwhoopfan]

Especially below all the NYL rookies besides Sabrina/Walker.

Jones and Odom have both been outperforming Walker.

 

[bballnut90]

Here's what I don't get about Dallas...why do they keep looking for Arike over and over when she's not hitting shots, yet they don't look for Mabrey and Gray whove been lights out tonight? I know Arike is as trigger happy as they come, but the team and staff are actively running plays for her when she's clearly off. I get it during games when she's shooting well but they have capable players and the entire 4th they're going to a cold player on almost every possession.

 

[nwhoopfan]

I've defended Ogunbowale multiple times, but looks like she shot them out of the game tonight. 6-23, 2-10 behind the arc. She still got to 20 points, but horribly inefficiently.

 

[bballnut90]

Jones and Odom have both been outperforming Walker.

I agree, but I think Walker is a better prospect long term. She hasn't been healthy/conditioned this year due to covid. Odom looks like a gamer, I will say.

 

[Kaizen]

With Sabrina out, Crystal big chance for ROY ...

 

[Blueballer]

Crystal was great tonight. So happy for her.

 

[eebmg]

With Sabrina out, Crystal big chance for ROY ...

And she is just not sneaking in. Beyond the points, she is running the team beautifully (6 assists and 2 TO). Her handle and change of pace are opening up shot opportunities all over the place and if she converted on a few more interior shots, would have 6 to 8 more points.

And with Pheesa getting her confidence in her 3pt shot back, things are looking good. But I do worry, Pheesa will hurt herself with that shimmy.

I've defended Ogunbowale multiple times, but looks like she shot them out of the game tonight. 6-23, 2-10 behind the arc. She still got to 20 points, but horribly inefficiently.

Yeah got to 20 because of the FT's. She was 6-23 from the floor. They live and die with her being hot or not. Not enough team ball.
