Back and forth, good game. 59-58 Connecticut after 3Q.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Alyssa leading all scorers w/ 19, Candace has 18.

Wiese almost banked in an end of quarter 70 footer.

Is Vadeeva healthy?

Is Vadeeva healthy?

Good question. She played sparingly against Seattle. I haven't heard anything about her being injured. Probably just a shortened rotation due to the stakes.

Gosh, Gray has just been terrible this game. Sorry @triaddukefan .

Look for her to bounce back in a big way in game 2. Is it a case of Duke on Duke violence?

is that joe dambrosio on pbp?

Gray can be bad for 39' and take your heart out in the last minute.

I think so. Apparently Chelsea has struggled somewhat in the series w/ the Sun this year, Jasmine must take that match up personally.

True, but that requires her teammates picking up the slack and keeping the game close enough for 39' so she has a chance for last minute heroics. I'd rather have a player perform well throughout a game.

Parker has been really active on defense. 5 blocks. I know her effort isn't always there, she can D it up when she wants to.


Connecticut w/ a late surge, up 73-66 w/ 3:45 left.

Well Thomas was her mentor for one year in Durham. At least she has been productive this game.

Alyssa with no rest. The way she plays, what a motor.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Pretty crappy FT shooting by both teams. 6-11 and 7-11.

Crappier refereeing

 

[nwhoopfan]

JJ upset on that foul call. On the replay I see why. No contact at all.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Crappier refereeing

Yeah, but that's to be expected in the WNBA.

 

[nwhoopfan]

LA folding down the stretch. Gray and R. Williams were no shows today.

C. Williams outstanding in second half.

I think I jinxed her the other day. I have that effect sometimes usually

 

[nwhoopfan]

Hack-a-Alyssa strategy. She did nail her last pair.

 

[nwhoopfan]

80-73 28 seconds left, more FTs coming for Connecticut.

Nneka and Candace were terrific, the other 3 starters for LA were terrible. They got some decent contributions off the bench from Chiney, Beard and Wiese.

Connecticut had 4 starters in double figures, balanced scoring, not much off the bench.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Okay, switch to the other game. Fisher just got T'd up, 13 seconds left, this is dragging out and is really ugly. 83-75 Sun.
