Mercury vs Sky #2 Game thread

[RadyLady]

I really thought Chicago would make a game of this after the first half.

I think, as much as Elena wanted to feel better, and knowing how back injuries usually work, there was only so much that could be done before things started acting up again. The Sky are a good team, but not a great team. I am surprised sometimes seeing them just stand around, especially on defense. It's as if they have forgotten who was guarding who on the switch.

here we go...

 

[sarals24]

True. And she definitely can't do it by herself, even if she were healthy.

 

[RadyLady]

EDD swing and a miss, Mistie corrals the rebound...Bonner misses the bunny, gets the put back...

 

[RadyLady]

Griner gets the roll on a neat move away from the basket.
Tam Young scores on the other end.

8 minutes to go 78 - 55 Phoenix

 

[RadyLady]

Who shot that??!? Buzzer beater for 3!!! and another 3!!!

84 - 55

 

[sarals24]

No need to play Game 3, really.

 

[RadyLady]

Griner outwits Fowles for another 2!!!

Largest lead for the tourney...86 - 57

 

[RadyLady]

EDD with an an' 1

 

[j66kicker]

Mercury running it up while DT on the bench with 4 fouls. 86-60

 

[sarals24]

EDD with 17. She is running like her back still hurts. Poor thing, she's playing really tough.

 

[sarals24]

EDD hits a three, cuts the lead to 21.

 

[RadyLady]

Is Griner sitting? Fowles scores again in the paint, and someone shoots an air ball for Phoenix.....who is on the floor?

EDD scores on the other end....

Bonner losses the ball..
Elena scores 3! She has 22 points thus far

Time out!

 

[RadyLady]

Ah. Before my time

Get thee to YouTube

 

[RadyLady]

We have 4:50 to go, score is
Phoenix 86
Chicago 65

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago stepping up the D on the outside, Penny gets the ball into Mistie for 2

 

[RadyLady]

So the folks who are "calling" this game are chatting about some kid getting blood transfusions, I don't know who that was that scored because the folks are too tiny on the screen.

Shut up already.

 

[RadyLady]

Cannot believe it. Phoenix foul just before the shot clock violation.

Well, to be fair, she is sitting on the PHX bench and is an "assistant" coach, they even signed a contract with her. Not that much to talk about in a 30-point blowout.

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago does not convert, Phoenix misses on the other end....

and another bench player scores for Phoenix.

Sky shots not going in.

Mistie Bass to shoot 2 after the time out

2:04 left to go

Phoenix winning by a large margin

well, I don't know about you, but I am still interested in the game. Seriously, I don't know why they start blabbing about nothing DURING women's games. The players that are on the floor as not as well known as the starters and first off the bench. I would like to know who they are. Yet if the game is not close, then let's talk about something else.

HUGE Pet Peeve

And you wonder why the womens games are not taken seriously

 

[RadyLady]

Mistie makes one of two

93 - 66

 

[j66kicker]

What???

You're not old enough to remember Johnny Carson

 

[RadyLady]

Now they are talking about the weather. Funny thing, you can't hear about the weather on the weather channel. Now you know why.

 

[RadyLady]

Nothing going in for Chicago...one minute to go
