Aces went to sleep and Chicago came storming back. Lead was nearly 30, but only 11 at the half.
I think I woke Sloot up. She had 1 assist, now she's up to 5, and 12 points.
I don't think Young or Plum scored in Q2 after both hitting double digits in Q1.

Looks like LA has benched Canada in favor of Tolliver, who is only playing her second game in forever. Sykes back in the starting lineup too.
Whatever got into Jefferson against the Aces, it's not there against the Merc.

Moriah still has some nice assists and her shots just keep catching back iron so at least they are straight, She can really up the pace but boy did she commit one of the biggest bonehead fouls on Diana on a 3pt shot before half time. Reeve almost gave herself a concussion knocking her finger to her temples. How D only made 1 of 3 FT's is beyond me.

Aces didn't have a FG for most of Q3. Now they're trading buckets, but that doesn't cut it when you're down 10. Their D has been abysmal ever since Q1. They can score, but their defense could be a problem.

After a big win against the Sun, no EDD today and looks like the Mystics are gonna lose to the Sparks. Down 14 mid Q4.
The WNBA is pretty hard to figure this year. Really anybody can beat anybody else on any given night. I don't know that that's always been the case in the league.

Running out of time by Mystics making a game of it.
Chiney showing some signs of life, 1 rebound away from back to back double-doubles.
edit--hold on, lead went from 6 down to 2 w/ barely any time coming off the clock. Under 30 seconds left.

Very entertaining game. Wouldn't be shocked if this is a playoff or finals series. Both teams have excellent players. Stevens and Meesseman coming on strong make the Sky extremely lethal.

and some extra curricular shoving by Vandersloot on Plum. Lots of spice and talent on these teams.
I do think there has been a significant jump in WNBA talent and pace of play in the league. No easy teams on the schedule. Most games are close. Just wish TV coverage was more uniform

It was nice to see Achonwa back on the court last night. Minnesota needs depth in the post position big time. Now with her and Dantas back, they have a little breathing room especially when foul trouble creeps up, like last night.

I just watched a replay. Plum threw an elbow, quite a retaliation from Sloot. A foul was called well outside the 3 point arc Long after the play was dead they were still locked up, it didn't get spicy until past the FT line.
