What to expect from the Shock.... Just got done watching my Lynx put the hurt on the Shock 84-70! Here's a scouting report from Minne: play aggressive defense! The Lynx were really in Detroit's face the whole game, and sort of took Detroit out of their game. The Lynx were the youngest team in the WNBA last year, and have (3) rookies playing this year, so that's some cause for hope for our Dream. The rookies, Anosike, Houston, & Wiggins were huge, but it all began with aggressive defense! Here's hoping Atlanta's home opener will be a repeat of Minne's! Go Dream! Mike in MN  |

Had to [listen] to the game here in Minne, as no WNBA broadband video was available. I thought we had it after the first half. In any case our Dream have improved, and that's all we can ask for. The next challenge will be to put two good halves together!
Unfortunately, there are a couple of powerhouses ahead....can I root for Kristin & the Lynx, is that OK, LOL?!
Go Dream!
Mike in MN

Thanks in advance. -LF i'm sorry.... i checked in here just before the game and there wasn't anyone here....i mistakenly assumed that all of you were at the game.... i truely apologize and it will not happen again.... now....i enjoyed this game a bunch....even tho we lost.... we showed some things i wasn't sure we were capable of.... we're going to win some games this season..... after all....every team doesn't have nolan.... i like desouza.... a lot.... not yet sold on young.... latta needs to take a couple of steps in closer to the basket when she shoots....can't believe that coaching hasn't addressed that....she's front rimming most of her shots... but i had a ball looking at this one.... and the crowd was awesome.... again....forgive me guys/gals..... won't happen again....  |

No worries. I was late getting to the board for the game thread myself.  btw, I sent you a PM. How big was DeSouza?! She was a terror in the paint! Loved that big lady!! She's a keeper!! I also thought Betty went off in a great kind of way. She was slicing and dicing. I don't know why Latta's shots are not falling beyond the arc. That's out of character for her. I'm sure she'll improve. So glad that she also got extended minutes. Nolan was just being Nolan. They need to call her Silk! She carried the Shock on her back (injury and all). I must say that Alexis did a great job for Detroit. She fits right into Bill's style. She's a great player. I just wanted to give her her props. Izzie needs to get more involved. Camille - how big was her game too?! I was so proud of my Camille Little. I love my Heels and she showed out in this game! GO CAMILLE! I can't wait for the Dream to come to NY. I'm definitely getting courside tickets for that game! I splurged for courtside tickets for the Liberty's season opener (they now have E. Larkins). I'm also a Liberty fan now. Anyway, I also like what I saw last night. They will win some games this season if they play all four quarters. Let's not accept this notion that they are going to have a losing season. Let's be positive thinkers. Life is 10% what you make it and 90% how you react to it! I say they start reacting like they CAN win games and we'll see the unexpected. I'm only concerned about the window when the Brazilian players go back to Brazil to prepare for the Olympics. You need all of the pieces in place to win games. Erica and Izzie are big pieces. Also hope Betty stays healthy. Erica was my star post player last night and Betty was my star guard! GO DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

desouza is a bona fide pro.... she plays confidently in her abilities.... she'll help any team she's ever on..... we've got some nice components.... our team defense needs a facelift.... it's hard for any one person to hold another at this level.... our help defense needs much work... but we're entertaining..... right now....that's all anyone can ask.... |
