Phoenix Mercury @ Seattle Storm - 9/04/18

[MilfordHusky]

Stewie and Sami are the only double-digit scorers for Seattle. Their other starters need to step up.

I hate watching PHX. Griner gets double or triple teamed every possession she gets it. And the defense is trying to hawk Taurasi and Bonner, which leaves someone else always open. It's definitely their best strategy and basically unstoppable, but I just don't enjoy it. January has taken Loyd out of the last 4 games, and Clark isn't athletic enough to exhaust DT on offense. Even if any of the guards blow by the guards, there's Griner there.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Dee for 3. Then Sue matches it.

UConn Party. Stewie, DT and Bird with back to back to back 3 pt shots.

 

[Reypl21]

Go Seattle!

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sue Bird taking over

 

[eebmg]

Bird may never take the mask off again.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sue again!

 

[Orangutan]

That 3 after the stoppage was one of the swaggiest shots ever! All hail Queen Sue

 

[Orangutan]

Imagine doubting that Sue can still deliver in the biggest games? Who could be so foolish?

(It was me. I was the fool.)

 

[Blue Huskie]

What a great game.

Seattle has been collapsing in the 4th quarter the whole series. Looks like they finally solved that issue. Kinda surprising they're able to overcome lack of production from 3 starters.

Actually, scratch that. Clark is over her season average w/ 11 points and has 13 big rebounds.

 

[Orangutan]

That one was just twisting the knife.

 

[BigBird]

Can anybody recall a more entertaining WNBA game? And Birdy is just wowzers!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Big bounce back game for Sue after the broken nose. Looks like she's not gonna let her buddy D out big game her tonight. D's winner take all streak is about to end.

 

[BigBird]

This was a classic.

 

[Orangutan]

 

[nwhoopfan]

Seattle scored 35 points in the 4th quarter!

 

[Blue Huskie]

SO happy for Sue & Stewie. Especially SUE!!! MVP of this game.

 

[JellyBean]

What a game!! Great finish by Seattle. Great to watch Sue Bird get fired up out there. She was intense!!

Anyone who didn’t get into that game must not like basketball, period.

Really. I don't think I've ever seen her that pissed when her mask got grabbed.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Sue had 8 in the 1st Q. Then none in the 2nd or 3rd. Then she put her cape on. Four treys and a midrange jumper for 14 points in the last 6 minutes or so. She matched and out-dueled the G.O.A.T.

The oldest player in the league may be the most clutch. Bird at the Buzzer is alive and well.

 

[Reypl21]

What a game. Bird did what DT normally does. I'm excited for the Mystics vs Seattle matchup!

Sue Freakin' Bird.
