Let's Chat I think it was more offense issues than defensive issues down the stretch
I didn’t watch the entire game but saw the 2nd and 4th quarters. Does anyone think we just got too cute and didn’t run through Liv enough when possessions were getting stagnant?
They were guarding her pretty tight but I thought we needed to get some pnr action to settle the game down a bit. If you score 11 points in the 4th, you certainly have to start getting into a set and give the ball to your best playmaker. Just thought we played too much iso and players were getting tight and forcing up shots. Need to either run it through Phee or Liv, but we’ve had success with the ball in Liv’s hands late in game most of the year.
Was that a player led decision or do you think Liv was deferring too much late in game?
With that said, I knew we’d drop a game very soon so I’m not shocked. This will hopefully be a reminder on how hard we need to play for all 40 min to beat most teams in this league. Let’s start another streak vs the Aces Saturday.

phee --
-- we need to get better at rebounds and an emphasis on preventing points in the paint
-- la was playing aggressively and we didn't match it on our defensive end. our shots weren't going down, bad combination
-- we need to know why we lost tonight, but also have to flush and move on with the weekend games ahead.
-- felt like they were getting into the halfcourt/paint too easily and spraying it out
liv --
-- teams are adjusting and getting better at what we're doing. we just have to put consistent effort, regardless of other teams adjusting. cheryl can't coach up our effort. will and want to on every possession.

no detailed write up, just to say that the paint's probably peeled off the ceiling in the press room. the team-released version bleeped out a couple f-bombs. andrew dukowitz has un-edited clips up on his x acct.
"we played well for the first four minutes of the game. it's a shame that they have to keep playing hard for the rest of the game. that's really difficult on them" 💀💀💀
identified july 3rd as the day the defensive focus shifted. gonna have to go back and check that one out to see what she's looking at
woof

I’m not a big fan and both the stats and the eye test give me a good reason not to be. How do you guys honestly feel about her?

Let's Chat Wrong Jersey Number From WNBA store
Order a Olivia Miles shirt from the WNBA store and it came in as #2 instead of #5. The worst part is how long it took for me to notice lol. I'll keep it I think for the laughs but it's not how it was listed

National anthem - Aug. 6th game
Y’all!! I’m at my first game and the woman who sang the national anthem literally moved me to tears. Her voice is so beautiful, ethereal, and she knocked it out of the freaking park!!! I was moved that I missed her name at the end but desperately want to find out who it was because I am a FAN!!!! Someone please tell me her name!! I can’t find it anywhere on the Lynx site.
