Message: [QUOTE="Dillon77, post: 4068548, member: 6620"] Watched the entire second half, which was riveting. Wanted to see what thoughts popped up after a night of sleep before posting. [LIST] [*]End of third quarter came at a bad time for Aces. That -- along withe the Young/DT flareup -- seemed to take the air out of the Aces. As pointed out by many, the players missed some key follow-ups. Got a lot of second chance opportunities. [*]Jackie Young, in all my years of watching her, doesn't get into these types of altercations. I'm not saying the play between them wasn't physical or that DT was looking for a mark, but DT got under Young's skin in a major way and raised her game in a major way. Her line-drive three and block(s?) on Cambage were major. [*]Peddy was gassed by the 4th quarter, Diggins-Smith was ok (at best) on offense and Bri Turner was not a threat, so Griner and DT were the main (almost only) offensive threats. It was enough. [*]That said, Turner was a force in the things she normally does: 11 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 blocked shots. Plus, she hit two pressured lay-ups no problem. Every point counts. [*]Did anyone on the Phoenix Bench sit down all night? Cunningham and Smith were full-throated all game. [*]Finals start....Sunday? Sky are set up to steal a game right from the get go. Have to hope Cunningham can give some minutes and get one streak of three's next series. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
