Shirttails... Dolson goes down hard... knee? maybe a bruise? I hope?

 

[ThisJustIn]

OK. She's back shooting free throws... phew.

Nice props for Dolson from the broadcast crew.

Bria is really one of the most entertaining players in the WNBA. Helps that she's playing well, but she's got an exciting game.

 

[vtinct]

She's carrying them right now. 21 points. Second best is Lawson with 13. 4 mins left

Coach Mike said that Bria might be the steal of the draft.

The other former soccer-playing UConn PG from Long Island is leading Seattle with 16.

Edit: 19 for Sue after she hits a trey. Tie score.

Sue is one of the smartest Basketball players ever. But we already knew that.

Sue is one of the smartest Basketball players ever. But we already knew that.

That's why she'll be an Olympian in 2016.

And the next UConn head coach.

Seattle wins, 92-89 in OT as Latta misses a trey at the buzzer.

Leading scorers: Bria with 26, Sue with 21. Geno must be proud.

Naw... They spent most of the game guarding each other. Geno would be grinding his teeth at the poor defense!

A darn good athlete as well.

Skylar Diggins and Jessica Breland had pretty good games yesterday.

Athleticism goes a long way in the WNBA, and Bria, also the soccer and lacrosse star in high school, is showing plenty of it. She's getting better and better, and appears to my eye to be playing a whole lot looser and more free-wheeling than she did at Uconn. Her confidence in her shot, her penetration, and the making of the tough pass are all rather impressive. She is playing fearlessly.

 

[blackbird]

I think that's one of the biggest differences between Stef and Bria's adjustment in the WNBA.

Stef is currently playing against Women who are bigger and stronger than she is. Every game. That only happened once or twice a year (if that) at Uconn, and it's an adjustment that Stef will have to learn from. (And if history proves itself, she will.)

Bria was a mid size guard in college, and she's a mid size guard in the WNBA. She's a player who always depended on her speed..and she's still faster than everyone else.

 

[Striper69]

Stef seems to be having problems adjusting to the style of offense the Mystics play. I thought she'd be getting a lot more assists but she's thrown the ball away at least once every time I've watched her. Her teammates don't seem to use her for pick and rolls as much as they could even though Stef tries to set picks quite a bit. A lot of times they just dribble away from the pick.

 

[EricLA]

Bria is having a great rookie campaign. Really great to see.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Seattle wins, 92-89 in OT as Latta misses a trey at the buzzer.

Leading scorers: Bria with 26, Sue with 21. Geno must be proud.

Correction: By the end of the game, Camille Little had 22, 1 more than Sue.
