Interesting opening weekend after the Olympic break.
Today’s results:
The Dream dropped Connecticut, 87-73.
Dallas struggled to play a full game, as Chicago defeated them, 92-85.
The Lynx pulled away to beat the Storm, 92-80. Lindsay Whalen lead Minnesota with 24 points.
The Stars played a strong game and held on to beat the Mystics, 85-74.
The Mercury edged the Sparks, 70-66. That’s two wins in a row for Phoenix, two consecutive losses for LA.
Thoughts:
– I anticipated Dallas would have a better start after the break.
– The Sky look fresh and energized – especially Elena Delle Donne.
– Lindsay Whalen is underrated.
– The young Storm have a very bright future.
– The Stars were leading the Mystics by 23 points midway through the game. Wow.
– What’s up with the Sparks?
– Why isn’t Brittney Griner dominating?
– I like Swin Cash as a broadcaster.
