Washington Mystics @ Seattle Storm game 1

Looks like a full house tonight for the game.
I don't see any empty seats when the cameras pan the customers. Seattle has run off and hid, up by 24 at the end of 3. This one is over.
Seattle has a fervent fan base.
 
Atkins is having a really nice game, 17 points on 8-12 from the floor. It's easy to not notice because of how lopsided the game is.

Della Donne isn't close to 100%. She gave it a go, but you can tell she's not right. The coach should sit her the remainder of the game, and get her ready for game two on Sunday. I'm pulling for Suzie B and the Storm. :cool:
 
Little run for Washington, cut the lead to 18. I think they said it was as much as 27. Bird coming back in. Thought she was gonna get to rest the whole 4th quarter.
 
Atkins has 23 points in her first finals game. On 10-14 shooting. Impressive.

KT has only 5, and Sanders is scoreless. Cloud and EDD have 11 and 10, respectively.

He is resting EDD.
 
I haven't seen that much of the Storm this year. Now I see why some are critical of Canada. She's quick enough she can get a shot just about any time she wants, but she's not finishing and she's not looking to set up teammates. She has a long way to go to be a successful PG in the W.
 
Howard didn't do much after a fast start, but now she's getting going again. She has 17 in the game.
 
Washington is getting aggressive play from the bench. They cut the lead from 27 to 16.
 
Whoever is doing the box score for ESPN fell asleep about 5 minutes ago. They haven't given credit to any of the Seattle players for their last 3 buckets.
 
Same story as EDD's first finals appearance. Playing hurt, she wills her team to the finals where they meet a far superior opponent.

That year the Mercury swept the Sky. Feels like the Storm may sweep the Mystics.
 
89-69 3:33 left. Seattle emptied the bench.
 
Even Mercedes Russell is in now, along w/ Paris, KML, Whitcomb and Canada.
 
Wait, I thought I saw Canada, but now Noelle Quinn is on the floor.
 
I don't know why it bugs me, but how hard is it for ESPN to catch up on the box score? They have it 81-63, way behind. Scored is 89-71.
 
Wow, I had no idea Mercedes Russell played for Seattle. And I follow basketball!! I just completely forgot about her. I actually thought she was returning to UT this year :eek:

Used up her eligibility. I think someone else drafted her, then cut her and Seattle signed her. Been with the team all year, but rarely plays.
 
The deep reserves for the Storm look ragged. They haven't scored for 3 minutes.
 
89-76 final, but it wasn't nearly that close in reality.
 
I’m pulling for Seattle, but I really like watching EDD and Tolliver. They give it all they have in every contest.

Stewie and Birdy also bring it every time. Loyd is streaky and sometime selfish, but she was much sharper tonight. She gave Seattle a big lift. Clark is so under-rated. She’s tough at both ends of the floor. Her rebounding helps tip the scales in the last two games.

Entertaining game tonight, despite the score.
