[Sac/Conn]Discussion Thread

Thought I'd get the thread opened....

Nice 1st quarter from the Ms....Crystal Kelly, again the first off the bench came out a blazin'.....

The Sun have the dropsies more than the Ms do, hope that continues...

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Hmmm...13-2 run by the Sun...missing Ms offense and defense rearing it's head again....28-27 Ms

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Well...after giving up a big lead...(again) the Ms are going into a media time out tied 35 apiece...they have found Kara in the offense (good thing) and she does what she knows best - drain shots against Conn. (very good thing)....

 

[uncommonclay]

my observation ...

t am so happy we have a wnba seasosn ... at all ... its a miracle .. and it's a beautiful thing ...

 

[creative one]

Atkinson has to be the worst player on the team by far...yet she inexplicably gets good minutes.

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

SERIOUSLY...can we stop the turnovers....AND BOX THE HELL OUT

 

[mdme]

I agree, when chelsea/sho comes back, I hope she goes out before charel allen.

At the half...let's review...39-37 Sun

Monarchs shot 48% at the half led by Kara Lawson 4-5 for 10pts
Turnovers...10


Sun shot 43% led by Linsday Whalen's 13 pts on 4-5
Turnovers 9 Shooting 25% from 3.

Outrebounding Sacramento 16-13, that's bad...but 9 of those are offensive. It feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeels like they scored after each of those o-boards too.

So that I say something positive? The Ms have only missed one FT.

I need 10 more damn points at least from Kara - not just because I have her today in Fantasy, but because this team needs some offense.

Stop turning the damn ball over and grab some damn boards!!!!!

Eh..and Go Monarchs!!

I've gone for the lucky snickerdoodle 4th quarter mojo...let's see if it works...

 

[creative one]

At least Ticha's being aggressive on offense. Too bad Powell isn't doing squat and this team can't guard the three.

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Kelly just checked back in before the media time out, something's gotta make difference...

Powell's just hit a wall, I mean damn...

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Um...how's about less shots for Powell and more shots Lawson's direction?

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

The snickerdoodle was good for a mini run to start the 4th, that apparently was the extent of the mojo that particular cookie had...

 

[Luv13fan]

It's not that we are losing...But

We can't seem to stop anyone.

Are we really that bad of a ball club?

What I remember is that we were suppose to be pushing the ball, trying to get more shots up. This offense while we are getting points looks really confused and out of whack. I don't know what to say about the defense.

Big Question... Where the Hell is Nicole Powell???

Nicole??? Hey!!! Nicole???

Paging the Turkish Mojo

You are not a bench player in Russian anymore. You are a Starter, on a team that needs you to Step-It-The-Hell-Up. 2 point efforts are not going to cut it. In fact 13 point efforts are not gonna cut it. She needs to be bring us about 16 a night. Minimum. It's gonna be a long season if she can't.
Bekkah, Kara and yes even Ticha are doing their part.
I realize that players need to make their money overseas. But Nicole is a player that really needed to be in camp. I don't particularly like Tangie or Kim in the Starting Line up, but the team looked better initially with them in. At least til Nicole gets caught up to speed with what we are trying to do.

As for the rest... I hope a week of practice with everyone back will improve things. Start to look a bit more organized.

I've gone for the lucky snickerdoodle 4th quarter mojo...let's see if it works...

LMAO! Too bad it didn't work...or maybe you just need to have MORE snickerdoodles!

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

I vote for more snickerdoodles....or at the very least an assortment of more cookies than two...I had a oatmeal cookie during the first quarter...coincidence?

I'm willing to sacrifice the body for the team if that's what it takes...

So, do you want me to sneak in snickerdoodles on Friday? I can say they are team equipment.

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

Go for it...if you can sneak a Starbucks Mint Chocolate Chip Frappacino in as well, that could work since they were killing the Sun while I was eating the oatmeal cookie and downing the frap. I definitely had run out of that by the 4th quarter, which I'm sure mitigated the potency of the snickerdoodle. The mint chocy frap and *.cookie combo kicked @$$ so that could be what I need a steady flow of to get the team over the hump....

I think we should approach Starbucks for a sponsorship for you MBF. We need all the help we can get!

 

[Monty'sBiggestFan]

OOOOOOOOOOH SNAP!!! That game on Friday apparently was totally my bad, I had neither a mint chocy chip frappaccino NOR snickerdoodle...AT ALL either before or during that game.


I did have snickerdoodles on Sunday and it was technically Sunday morning when I had the minty frappaccino. We could be tearing up the league if I got my act together....
