Tonight I think I understood how awful it is to root for a team with a completely dysfunctional offense. The thing is the Lynx unlike those other teams have a lot of talent, at least on paper. In particular, Phee was a non-factor.

Burton Milesing Miles.

If this is what the playoffs will look like I’m not confident in the Lynx no one has shown up tonight.

The Valks running the same screener for the corner three look everyone else runs. However, tonight, the Lynx are mystified by this “exotic” offensive scheme. Phee playing Ike a D2 player.

Lynx aren’t winning with Kayla going 1 for everything and Phee playing like Dorka.

It seems like the only thing keeping the Lynx from being a pedestrian squad was Williams. Maybe she should be our max player.

McBuckets is broke.

It’s probably obvious but the way the Lynx are playing against GSV is extremely frustrating. Phee missing bunnies, Liv turning it over, MBuckets disappearing this is not what they’ve shown us all season.

The Lynx seem so fucking tentative. Phee needs to play like an MVP.

The Lynx better start playing like they want it. You need to crush the Valkyries’ confidence especially going into the playoffs.

Another turnover for Miles. Come on Liv you aren’t Caitlin, be better.

I miss Chekova.

Apparently to stifle the Lynx you just need to play zone. Who knew?

Dorka did something!

The Lynx could use more from McBuckets. Especially without Court.

Listening to @aimeemann.bsky.social One of our best living song writers. She is at once personal and universal. Right up there with Elvis Costello and Joni Mitchell.

Re Kanter Fever bring the bullshit with them. Let’s see if commissioner Cathy says anything now. I guarantee that Cheryl has something to say.

Hakeem’s kid: “Tell me again how brave you were in the face of fascism dad.” Well, my child, I wrote strongly worded letters and amassed a fortune in donations from the same folks that supported the fascists. Some people even believed that I was opposing the regime. So many rubes.

I have been corrected. Apparently it’s fine to have a sign with the N**** on it. You can’t touch the racist even if said racist was out on bail for another offense in your state. Also the cops will let randos pepper spray you, but don’t you dare punch the racist.

Not to hate speech.

Remember this terrible Sparks team beat the Lynx at home.

Cool that we have this excellent Sparks Sun game on Prime.

The liver coach looks like an overweight, bearded, sweaty Jacob Frey. Just as competent.

Yeah I’m rooting for the Liberty. Yes I feel dirty. But it’s the Fever and the Fever losing is justice done.

My rawdogging* absentee dad shoes arrived today. *As a guy who came of age during the AIDs crisis, rawdogging is not in my wheelhouse.

What will the refs do in this Liberty game? Risk the wrath of Commissioner Cathy, or get death threats from the racist transphobe hordes of rurals? Who can say?

Wow the Sparks are looking quite terrible. Thank goodness they have a ton more nationally televised games this year.

If I had to play for the Sparks I’d retire too.

Welp my hate watch was fruitful. Fuck the Fever and their bigoted fan base.

Awak Kuier is playing like some combination of Nia Coffey and Natasha Howard.
