Yes, Sancho was off today. I agree the trees in the middle affected the entire game..even though Angel, Izzy or Erika weren't afriad to do their thing! It was a great game overall.

I looked at the box score, and the way it looks, LA won because of team involvement. You can't rely on 3 starters, and 1 bench player for all your scoring. Without Chamique on the floor, to direct traffic, everybody seems to be lost. At least that's what it looked like to me.
The Dream have the heart and the skills, but they need to resign themselves to the fact that Chamique's knees are going to limit her playing time. They need to figure out a game plan for when she has to sit. And then stick to it.
Ladies, pick it back up. First is still doable.
The league really needs to get a new deal for getting these games on TV. How is the fan base ever going to grow, if they can't see how good the product is. And if you're already a fan, and can't get to the games, you're just sol. This needs to change.

www.ajc.com/sports/parker-sparks-122044.htmlThe AJC has a story up and actually sent one of its own to the game. Notice though, how...um...Jen Lacy is comforting "Michelle Snow" in the photo...you know, because Michelle and Angel look so much alike AFF

d**n being up in there is one of the better sports experiences period! This is coming from a Falcon season ticket holder. Great Marketing to draw a "Sellout" crowd...In More ways than one. I say it was 50/50 Sparks to Dream fans...With CP3 being the most popular player on the court hands down. She didn't disappoint either--her mannerisms and style are blended will the substance she provides. Glad we have our own superstar in ANGEL!! B Money was on fire like I projected. Izy Ball-Hog Marques was getting it in like usual. Shooting a thousand shots and giving up a thousand points. She hustles though and is a certified scorer. Erica was solid as usual. Sancho was M.I.A. Wish Shalee would have played in the 30 min. range so she could do more penetrating and dishing. That element is missing when Ivory "Latta 3 point shots" is out there. They have way diff. games so it's no use debating with you people about who's more affective. Like an earlier poster said;when "5" is running the point---it's more fluid. Shalee gets in the lane no matter who's guarding her, this creates open shots for our scorers. When Ivory is in hoisting up 3's, if she's not making them--the other teams can crowd the lane and out rebound. As evident tonight. Both players are good, but diff. And LOL at you wankstas playing the race card. (in regards to shalee/ivory) Learn about B-Ball systems and stop with the archaic talk.....Anyway Hopefully Mique will be back when we go to LA, to return the favor...

what makes you think you know more than we do.....if you did you'd know that shalee doesn't penetrate and dish.....she comes down.....occasionally calls a play....passes the ball and heads towards the corner trying to take her man with her.....and shalee came out because our deficit was 14 and counting.....when shalee is in the lane is clogged because the defense can lay off of her knowing that she isn't going to shoot.....and latta doesn't go out there and just jack up threes....and how in the h*ll does a player shooting a three allow the other team to crowd the lane....that's ridiculous....
but you're right about one thing.....there's no debating with you.....the other shalee fans here....tho i don't agree with them a lot.....they at least use reasoning in their opinions.....you're just talking nonsense....
the term "playing the race card" is a term invented by racists to discredit the complaints of minorities.....and i've got your wanksta hanging.....

Re read my post, I said If Ivory is not hitting her 3's it allows for more defenders to crash the boards. Obviously if you got a person that's an outside shooter, they usually only require 1 defender. Anyone who is a threat to drive will pull in any number of defenders. Anyone with 1/2 a brain knows this fan boy. What game do you watch? You might need to purchase an accompanying 54 In screen to go with your computer as you watch the game. I'm there, and I see it. Shalee is constantly in the lane. She is not going to shoot outside shots, her game is predicated off penetration. I'm a Dream Fan, so I want whoever is best to run the point to do it. IMHO Shalee fits what MM is conveying. Ivory is great lift off the bench where she can come in and be a scoring threat, and a crowd pleaser. I am black dude, I'm just sick of the race card being a crutch for wankstas. Do something constructive!

"IMHO Shalee fits what MM is conveying." I hear ya d3smurf, but I guess thats why the debate is so hard against. Not many lovers of MM's game plan on here.

Is this 1988 elementary school? Anyway, people who don't like MM just have to have something to chew on imo. I mean dude, how big of an improvement do you want? The sad part about it, if the Dream go back on a hot winning streak, MM will more than likely garner coach of the year....
