The Liberty coach is an idiot, she should have called a timeout and set up a play on the two missed possessions.
She’s a moron

Brondello sucks to high hell. She had two timeouts. Stewie was clearly gassed. I could go on but why bother.

Don't blame Sandy for the non-timeout...

"In the end, close game. Things we could have done better. We all could have done better," Brondello said. "Including me, getting that f---ing timeout -- excuse me, don't repeat it," referencing a timeout she said she tried to call with 30 seconds remaining in the game that she said the referees did not hear.

Both coaches have pi**ed and moaned about the officiating...seems to vary depending on which gym they are playing at...

Minnesota is a very good team defensively...they are usually in every game and they seem, defensively, to match up very well against New York...

Okay she gets a pass for that one. But Stewie was out there looking like she was about to keel over well before the last 30 secs. That 4th quarter was not handled well.

Also, we should have been force feeding Jones. There is literally no one on Minnesota that can defend her and she was the best player on the floor for us last night the entire game.

Yeah Minnesota is really good. Collier is the best two way player in the league, Courtney Williams is a straight up monster when she gets cooking.

The Lynx have beaten us the most out of any team this season including the playoffs. This was never going to be easy.

How you not run plays for the Sabrina-Jonquel high low PnR, because if they leave Jonquel to roll to the rim, that's easy 2 points.

Also, too much Breanna ISOs when you have a physical defense from the Lynx. She should get hers, but its really puzzling to not run more high low PnRs.

(I didn't watch much of this game, so forgive me for a not-so-collective analysis, but its just a feeling I have)

I mean, you're not that far off base.

Sabrina has been holding the ball a bit too long during sets which also gums up the offense at times. I know she's trying to be aggressive but we literally have 5 shooters on the floor at all times in the starting 5. Move the ball

Jonquel Jones and Ionescu are erratic.
