If Angel starts it is a different game with a much better chance of a Dream victory. I wonder what she said to the coach.

Why didn't Angel start?

Turns out the Conneticut Sun announcer didn't know what he was talking about. He said before the game Angel didn't start due to disciplinary reasons....then he came back and retracted that statement saying he didn't know why she didn't start. See...that's how rumors get started.

They just posted an updated box score. +5 while Coco played and -13 while Lindsey played. Now, I know that isn't a direct reflection of their contribution to the game, but I do find it an interesting stat.

it's just one game... harding has bad games... coco has bad games... every player does.... it's hardly a reflection on who needs to be there and who doesn't.... fans attitudes towards players in the W change from one game to the next....

jaye - I get frustrated and vent, but I actually agree with you. In one of Angel's recent interviews, she mentioned how, when one player is having a rough game, the other players on the team step up. This game was absolutely an example of that. All in all, as a living room coach, I think we played great. I still get frustrated when MM pulls people when their hot and leaves players in when they are ineffective and I hate to see us score points for our opponents with our fouls. With that said, I may critique, but I love my team whether they have a 4W season or a WNBA Finals season and a true fan never gives up hope (just look at the Cubs).

was anyone complaining about Harding's play when she was scoring 20 pts per game just a few games ago? EVERY player will have bad games that's just how it is, but one thing I love about Harding is that she plays hard imo ALL the time. Tough loss but I still think we are in a great position to move up in the standings with everyone close to being healthy.
