Chicago really could have used Dana Evans this year (or this version of her last year)

Are we prepared for a world where the Fever actually take this series?

I don't think it's going to happen, but we need to start considering the possibility.

I think they absolutely can beat the Aces and go to the Finals. Aces were favored by -8.5 today and i was surprised. Either team who goes to the Finals from this game is a great story

I don't know what happens, but at this point, I'm done underestimating the Fever.

Is Kelsey Chennedy Carter with a 3 point shot and a better attitude?

You know what, I think the Aces are cursed because Becky decided to talk **** about Alanna.

I thought the white-tailed deer/elk comment was about Phee, but it was about Alanna.

You **** on Alanna and bad things happen. (talking **** about Phee would have been wrong too, but that was at least a shot at one of the 2 best players in the league).

Alanna can't buy an AS vote, but Becky had to go **** on her for getting a much deserved half a DOPY award.

I am. Fever is like the Pacers. They are quick, they are scrappy, they don't quit. They have a damn good team and they have Mitchell.

Always wondered how Kirstin Bell has a roster spot in the league.

Now the Aces have to win a game in Indy.

Man, that doesn't seem like a good spot.

No it doesn't. But this is good for the Aces and for the sport. Sometimes a great team needs to find out what they are about. Can Aja, Becky, and the Aces go into Indiana and steal one back? Great teams go through adversity. Let see how they respond.

Fever and Mercury didn't seem to get the memo about a Lynx-Aces Final
