"You told the truth and I don't like it"

Sounds like many of my posts.

Go Hawks!

Here's coach analyzing the Fever defense. He's a tad bit spicy.

Can you imagine someone forming a WNBA team with all trans males? And then, playing the Lynx? Oh my.

The thing is, there has never been a trans m2f in the 30 years of the league. There are no trans m2f in women's college bball and I haven't heard of a top trans bb player in hs.

It's a non issue, but like everything else in the W it's a topic that keeps people arguing.

Who would have guessed a league full of women, run by women, would have so much pointless, needless drama?

All the Sophie haters. Do they want men in the WNBA?

does the Union ?

so stupid.

No but that’s just a simpleminded understanding of the issue.

How White and Reeves answered this is perfect.

They thrive on it. They're activists who play basketball.

Sounds like Miles disappeared in the 2nd half. Still had a nice game though.

Sucks that CC was apparently playing sick, puking before tipoff. Getting 19 and 10 against one of the best defenders in the league while sick isn't bad.

CC had an excellent game with the exception of her 3-ball - 19 points plus 10 assists was really impressive.

Hull has had a few streaks where defensively she seemed like she was everywhere grabbing rebounds and loose balls, and she's had some hot 3-point shooting streaks.

All that seems like a distant memory. I'm not sure what she's bringing this year, it sure ain't defense.

Lexie was getting beaten with back cuts to the rim numerous times today. That seems to be happening quite often of late.

Just finished watching the game. They lost, but I don't feel bad about the effort. They had an impressive run to get it very close at the end. They just needed a couple more shots to fall in the last minute. CC's distance shot wasn't there tonight, but otherwise she was solid. Miles was impressive in the first half. I expected she would do well because the Fever struggle against slashing guards. The Fever did pretty well to contain her in the second half. The Lynx just have too many other weapons. The mid-range queen, Courtney Williams, torched the Fever down the stretch. And, of course, the rebounding was a problem. This was always going to be a tough game to win. The Fever are still in great shape. They play the Lynx two more times, but they are the last two games of the season, so they might not even matter and one or both teams might be resting players.

Da.

Not the player she once was. Scoring wise, she's like the 5th option.

-Fever arguably the hottest team in the league with a 5 win streak

I think the win streaks for both teams were a bit overrated.

Fever had won 5 in a row.
Lynx had won 9 in a row.

Both had beaten the 8th place Liberty and then simply been feasting on the bottom of the league.

The other 8 wins for MN:
9th: LA: 1 (who before today had lost 6 in a row)
11th PHX: 1
11th: Portland: 1
13th: Tor: 2
14th Conn: 1
15th: Seattle: 2

The other 4 wins for IND:
11th Portland: 1
14th Conn: 1
15th Seattle: 2

And ya gotta feel a little bad for Seattle...they had a 4 game stretch where they played the Lynx and the Fever 2 times each.
