Also, it's very hard to post up on Phoenix if you have Griner in the paint. Griner was much more active on both ends last night and you saw her effect on Howard. Natasha missed some shots in the high post and also had shots altered inside by Griner which essentially negated her. The impact of Howard struggling meant she couldn't pull Griner away from the basket, so the paint isn't open. Bird and Stewart carried Seattle, Loyd came through in the clutch and Canada was the boost off the bench. Starters cumulatively shot 38% from the floor and 5-17 from deep. Phoenix really needed that win because that likely doesn't happen again. [/QUOTE]
