[Kaizen]

LA missed the first 5 shots, 7-0

 

[Shades]

15-6 Lynx with 3:52 left in Q1

 

[sarals24]

Minnesota is so careless with the ball.

 

[UConnCat]

Turnovers really hurting the Lynx.

Also, get the ball to Sylvia.

 

[BigBird]

Minnesota is so careless with the ball.

True. They need to get it fixed, like right now. Augustus is hurt, and Whalen is still dribbling away the shot clock for a team that wants to run. Oy...

 

[ucbart]

Renee's minutes really, really, really hurt Minnesota. A very quick, terrible shot, which resulted in a long rebound, Sparks run out, she fouled, 3-point play, turnover. Went from an 11 point lead to 6.

 

[BigBird]

Just plain awful shot selection by two teams that are supposedly better than that.

 

[sarals24]

I love Brunson.

 

[sarals24]

Terrible by Jones.

 

[BigBird]

Lynx rebounding has been good again tonight...

 

[Shades]

 

[MilfordHusky]

Lots of intensity again.

 

[Geew1992]

Whalen is fired up.

Sparks can’t keep the Lynx off the O boards

 

[Samanthabrown3]

How can you not root for Maya? So intense, so competitive.

 

[sarals24]

Lavendar is killing the Sparks.

 

[Shades]

 

[BigBird]

A small lead at half that coulda shoulda been a much bigger one. Oh well.

 

[augustaTC]

Whalen is fired up.

Sparks can’t keep the Lynx off the O boards

Gotta love Whalen - no quit in that woman.

 

[Bigpetunia]

Lynx coaching fair to partly cloudy...they don't get the ball to Big Syl enough. Brunson picks up 3rd foul with a minute to go in first half, and she's left in. Not impressed!

 

[UConnCat]

The Sparks seem to be able to find more easy points than the Lynx, mostly aided by Lynx turnovers. If the Lynx can cut down on turnovers and bad shots and force the Sparks to have to score in the half-court then the Lynx's chances of winning the game improve.

[BigBird]

Whistles benefiting the Lynx at the moment...

 

[YellwJcket999]

This is a great game. The Lynx need to keep up the intensity. Augustus seems to be moving a lot better. She is much more active this game.
Gotta love Brunson's effort.
