Vegas is rolling, up by 15. Game over most likely.

Vegas is rolling, up by 15. Game over most likely.

Wait a minute! 17 point halftime deficit is down to 2 in the 3rd quarter. Allemand is going off from behind the arc.

73-67 Aces end of third

Aces were pulling away in Q4, but looks like Indiana has one last push. 88-82 w/ 2 minutes and change left.

88-82 Aces with 2:23 left

 

[nwhoopfan]

Wilson with an elbow to the face on McCowan. Extended that arm back more than was necessary.


edit--refs called it a common foul, I think they got this one incorrect

 

[nwhoopfan]

4 point game w/ 41 seconds left, Indiana ball.

92-86 final

22 pts/16 rebs for Wilson, 17 for Young.

Wilson 22 pts, 16 reb, 2 ast, 2 stl, 3 blk
Might as well hand her the MVP now.

KMitchell 24 pts, 2 reb, 4 ast, 1 stl, 1 blk

The way the Lynx is playing now, Indiana just might beat them and they will wind up losing their last four games of the season, because I don't see them beating Las Vegas.

Well, Indiana currently has the longest losing streak in the league at 8 games and has lost 9 of 10. The Fever might just be the remedy for the Lynx.

Washington should have been a win for the Lynx. Their defense has not been good the last three games, especially inside. Who is going to stop Mitchell and McCowan?

Don't need to stop them. Indiana has been finding a way to lose to everybody they play, even when Mitchell and/or McCowan have big games.

Chicago has lost 5 of their last 7. Both of the wins were against Indiana. By double digits.

Have a little faith!

Stanley has been stopping McCowan. Hopefully she’ll step up again for the Lynx game.

I'm trying. However, they will have to show me. I'm from Missouri. I am hoping they don't lose fourth place.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Nice comeback by Indiana. They have some pretty good pieces.

I saw Allemand in 2018 at the World Cup. She, Meesseman, et al. were very good and fun to watch.

 

[stwainfan]

Hope Indiana Fever make the right pick in the draft.

 

[Shades]

Both Achonwa and Dupree will need new contracts, so depending on what they want to do with them, there could be more openings in the post. At SF, they already have Vivians, Burke, and Tiffany Mitchell (signed through 2022).
