Don't like Sandy's dress...just saying....

Elena picks up her second foul rather quickly....
Quigley back in
 
Good D by the Sky causing shot clock violation for Phoenix
 
Nice pass to a trailing Fowles for 2. 'sloot with the assist.

Dupree for 2, and back the other way, Kobryn just picked up her fourth with 4:19 to go in the third.

5 point lead for the Merc. Time out
 
Now I am being treated to an undie "bunching" advertisement....well, ok, something to look at....
 
.-.
I'm a fan...I'll admit it. But we shall see. It ain't gonna be easy, and I will echo many who have already said that they are glad that they are not making the decision.
Ok but if it's up to you to decide Dupree or Stewie, who deserves it and who gets in?
 
This game is what we refer to a "Grind", meaning that Phoenix will have to grind out the win

Here we go
 
Foul on...someone on Phoenix, thought it was Bass, Fowles shooting 2.
Makes the first
Makes the second

55 - 52

3:37 to go in the third
 
Taurasi miss cleaned up by Mistie....

Elena for 2 on the other end.

Here we go
A "No Giner" grind. PHX is probably good enough to win without Griner, but her presence is clearly missed.
 
Bonner beats the shot clock, score 59 - 54 2:19 to go.

Sky has really picked up the D
 
.-.
Quigley drains a 3 from downtown...

59 - 57
 
Erin Phillips, heavily defended loses the ball out of bounds, EDD gets fouled

Shoots and makes 2, Sky leads by 2, 54 seconds to go in the quarter
 
The Chicago fans are now with hope.
 
I let you have that one.
I'm biased. Dupree "deserves" it, but that's not what assembling the best team is about. Objectively , Stewie kicks Dupree's ass one-on-one.
 
.-.
Chicago with a 4 point lead with Quigley getting to the basket courtesy of a screen by Fowles.

Time out Phoenix.

Well I should think so
 
Here we go

Dupree makes a deuce to bring the score closer, 63 - 61 SKY

That's right...I said Sky
 
Here we go

Missed the first bucket because we are not allowed to see the very beginning of the quarters because folks have to "chat"
 
Bonner just got whacked in the face with a basketball courtesy of a bad choice by Breeland. That could not be intentional.......
 
She stays in, taylor makes the techie throw, Bonner shoots and makes both to tie the game.
 
.-.
Great passing sequence to Dee for threeeeeee
Phoenix on a 9 - 2 run, 70 - 67 with Phoenix in the lead.

Dupree offensively looks better than anybody right now...I don't think she can contribute as much defensively as Breanna can...hard to believe USA basketball will keep Breanna home...somebody else may be out of luck...
 
Out of the time out, Phoenix forces the shot clock violation.

Breeland is a guard?
 
Aaaaaaaaaaand....Chicago forces a shot clock violation on the OTHER end.

Phoenix looks out of sorts....
 
Taurasi shoos everyone out of the way and makes a great leaner. Phoenix up by 5
 
.-.
On the other end.....Bonner whacks it out of bounds, Chicago with 2 to shoot, and nothing. Phoenix ball
 
WOW - QUigley ties up Taylor on the way to the hoop. Jump ball....Chicago comes up with it
 
Taylor fouls Quigley, a 88% shooter outside the arc.
Checking Quigley's placement....will shoot 3

Makes all three

72 - 70


5:51 to go
 
Was just about to say Phoenix looks tired, then Dee drains a 3
On the other end, EDD gets an an' 1, foul on Depree.

Misses the shot, 75 - 72 Phoenix
 
Dupree gets Fowles to commit her third foul, and Phoenix is in the bonus now
