Injuries to their star players during the regular season. Essentially they're better than their record indicates

Candace missed a bunch of games. That's where most of their losses came from.

Up 6 entering the 4th. Going up 2-0 with the next 2 at home would be perfect

Some tough calls against Chicago in this one at 2 mins left. Phoenix definetly getting the benefit of the doubt

Griner is unstoppable right now.

Sky choked this game away.

Seems like refs and announcers are in the bag for Phoenix

Just feels like old school Home Court advantage. As they mentioned it i a different rule in the WBNA still highly questionable IMHO but it is what it is.

This got out of hand quickly...

Vanderslot can really get to her spot anytime she wants

Well tough loss. Phoenix won it in OT though for sure. I wonder if any Bulls will be in the front row like The Suns were

We have a pre-season game going on at the same time as game 3. Game 4 they probably will be, but I wonder how big of a crowd we attract with the Bears playing the Packers at the same time.

I just feel like Sky will finish the mission and tonight was merely a hiccup.

They’ve noted that game 3 is sold out. So I’m hoping they can get a similar showing for game 4. One thing is for sure though. These ladies are generating some real buzz so we will see how that translates going forward. I’m loving the support from the men’s side.

Too bad the Sky didn't win it, but that was a fun game. Looking forward to Game 3.

That was a great game. Although I was rooting for the Sky, it was nice to see superstars like Taurasi, Griner and Diggins rise to the moment. Tough loss, but I agree that the Sky seem like the better team.
