Diana is playing. < 25 minutes expected.

 

[Shades]

Diggins can’t guard Ogunbowale to save her life.

28-27 DAL end of first

Ogunbowale 12 pts, 2 reb, 1 ast

Diggins can’t guard Ogunbowale to save her life.

Few can. Diggins is historically a good defender

 

[Shades]

Samuelson with the nice reverse layup.

Few can. Diggins is historically a good defender

She’s looking lazy today.

 

[eebmg]

Diana looking really good. 2nd 3pt shot

 

[eebmg]

Samuelson with the nice reverse layup.

Another good drive by KLS and some good positional defense. Her only miss came on a faked 3pt shot and drive for a very open 10 footer that just barely rimmed out. Definitely one of her better showings

 

[Shades]

44-44 end of half

Ogunbowale 14 pts, 3 reb, 2 ast
Gray 12 pts, 6 reb, 2 ast, 1 stl

Taurasi 12 pts, 6 reb, 3 ast, 1 stl
Griner 12 pts, 2 reb, 2 ast

 

[bballnut90]

Kind of cool to see one team of Taurasi/Diggins/Turner vs. Ogunbowale/Mabrey/KLS/Jefferson.

1 point game going into the 4th. Griner has played fantastically.

 

[Shades]

Nice close game for ABC.
80–77 DAL with 3:14 left

 

[nwhoopfan]

I've had the game on in the second half, haven't been watching real close. Griner and Ogunbowale are both going off. BG has 29 and AG has 30. Both very high shooting% (12-16 and 12-18).

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nice close game for ABC.

There haven't been many close games lately. I'm curious about game 2, Connecticut is on a winning streak, might be another good game against Seattle.

 

[eebmg]

Mabrey back talking her coach after some criticism.

Arike is definitely acting like the leader. Impressed by her whole package.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dallas wins 95-89.

 

[bballnut90]

All ND down the stretch...Dallas holds on. Really entertaining game:

Arike: 33 points, 13-19 FG, 6-7 3pt, 3 assists
Mabrey: 17 points, 6-11 FG, 3-7 3pt
Diggins-Smith: 20 points, 8-14 FG, 4-8 3pt
Brianna Turner: 9 points, 4-5 FG

Griner with a monstrous game too, 29 points, 7 boards, 5 assists, 12-17 FG. Alisha Gray also had 20/7.

All 4 of Lous fg's were in the paint. 3 were one on one moves to the hoop against Allana Smith( 2x) and I believe Turner. The other was a finish off basket under the hoop.

Those are tough defenders with size and athleticism. Had missed an open 10 footer making a nice head fake from 3 that just barely rolled out. Still needs to get her 3pt shot going but her defense was really good and decision making was excellent. This game should give her more cred with her coach and teammates.
