WNBA Games on ESPN2, 3, MSG+, TWC SN (Tue. June 14)

[JavaMan]

There have been some pretty good WNBA games so far this year. Here are five games that are available for viewing (depending on your ISP and package) for Tuesday, June 14 (Flag Day). All time are ET.

​

Predictions?

Minnesota and LA are undefeated ...do either get upset here. BTW: they play each other on June 21 and June 24.

​

 

[JavaMan]

They're underway.

Here is a pro named Morgan schooling a pro named Stef.

No WNBA on my MSG but do have the Lynx on espn2

 

[MilfordHusky]

Kiah!!! She dominated the inside, as NY came back in the last 5 minutes to beat Dallas. She had 3 blocks and several defensive intimidations late in the game and also pulled down a big offensive rebound that led to a score and a huge defensive rebound. Meanwhile, Tina was hitting jumpers from everywhere, including 3-4 from distance, and recorded 28 points.

UCONN women just tearing it up tonight. So many alums having good to great games. Just WOW!!!

Do you think Maya works on this shot at practice?

Everything going right for Maya Moore
(16-7) and the @MinnesotaLynx.
They are a quarter away from history on ESPN2.​

I think she was trying to balance it on the rim.

Maya was +27 in 25 minutes in the rout of Indy.

Meanwhile, Mo Jeff had 19 points in a win over Seattle.

As did Stewie in the loss.

The high scorers for their teams?

Stewie had 19 pts but was only 5 of 18 from the floor, 0-4 from three. Her shooting has just not been good lately, and her 3-point shooting has been particularly off. I hope she finds her stroke soon, here in the run-up to Rio.

However, as miserable as her shooting has been, her other stats are quite good, especially her rebounding. In fact, I think her 15-board tally vs San Antonio puts her in first place for the league, at 10.1 rpg.

The thing about Stewie is even when the shot is not falling, she's involved in so many other ways. There are players in the league who are "lazy" and do a lot of standing around when they aren't immediately involved in the play. Not so with Sewie (or most of the other UCONN alums). I watched the LA Sparks game last night and Nneka and Alana Beard are 2 other players who have a very high motor and are always involved - 100% effort from each of them as well, so it's not just UCONN alums...

The best player on L.A. right now is Nneka. Damn, she made 23 straight FGAs. Wow!

The entire LA and Minnesota teams have high motors. They run the court with ease and are high tempo teams. Neither team has the traditional type of big in the post that needs extra time to get down the court. There's a reason these 2 teams are both undefeated. Their starting line ups are quick on quick.

someone needs to be benched for lack of defense on that play

Jayne Appel sets a BIG screen.

That's the first time I've seen Appel. Holy smokes! Almost unrecognizable...
