WNBA discussion thread?

Cam Brink had 5 blocks in 16 mins! What an addition to an already surging team!
All that and Cam is still working her way back too (she is probably 70%). Once her shot starts dropping, that will be another big plus for the Sparks.

Gotta say, Plum had a nice game. She is on the ball a lot (11 assists last night), It seems that she and Allemand are kind of playing like a two headed PG monster.

Roberts is not quite doing the positionless b-ball thing but there is a lot of fluidity in how they play their positions. Stevens and Brink as bigs who can stretch the floor seems key to this system.

Another excellent defensive outing for Rickea who had to guard McDonald for long stretches and had 0 fouls in her 32 minutes.
 
Sparks Seattle game was amazing. For those that are interested in Tennessee players as they move into the pros, last night was as good a story as we could get in recent years.

Rickea absolutely owned Gabby Williams, the former UConn standout and almost usurper of team USA in the Olympics last year. Gabby is touted for her superior defense and athletic skill and speed and jumping ability. Rickea like just laughed in her face, took her in the paint and just kicked her ass in the 4th Q and both overtimes last night.

So beautiful to watch.
What a great game. I happened to be visiting Seattle. Our former Lady Vols came to play.

Another win for Sparks. Rickea had a huge first half (17 points) and finished with 20. Game not televised so only going by bix scores. She did not play many minutes or take many shots in 2nd. Hopefully nothing is wrong.

Got in foul trouble early in the second half. Sat due to that. Tremendous first half though and KP really stepped up in the second. RJ has hit 3s much better. She’s really looking comfortable and Robert’s has said she’s still learning how to use her. She’s now allowing mid range for RJ!

I keep saying Julie Allemande!! Had a triple double last night. She makes everyone better.

Sparks have a huge game w Golden State on Saturday. Could get to .500 and could be firmly in playoff spot. Lots of tough games to go though!
