Will Plum?

I'd say if Plum really shows up it won't even matter what Bonner does.


I'd say if Chelsea Gray continues playing like she's playing, it won't matter what Plum or Bonner do! I expect both to be better, though.

That was one of the strangest opening taps I've ever seen.


Doesn't a team usually shoot at the basket in front of its own bench in the second half, not the first half?


The visiting team gets to choose which hoop they would like to shoot at first. So Connecticut basically made the decision where both teams started.

I guess if you can't win playing basketball, switch to MMA.

I usually find Stokes frustrating with her limited offense, but dang she’s earning her paycheck. Running the floor, protecting the rim and hauling down boards. Helping the Aces a lot tonight.


Limited is putting it mildly, but yeah, she's doing what she does best tonight. She's been really good that way during the playoffs. Go Kiah!

I feel like this is going to be a sweep.

Curt better go home and dust off the resume and best suit. Maybe LA and Indiana will take a chance on him. Or maybe he might want to go over to the NBA and learn under Steve Kerr. Laughing

Jonquel's decision to bring the ball down drives me insane. Just put it back in. Sigh.

Who is the GM for Connecticut?


Curt Miller

Exclamation THAT is the question....The whole discussion Ryan and Lobo just had about how Conn "beats teams up and wears them down" is right in line with that. The thing is that Conn game plans that way and the officials allow it, so it is hard to say overall that what they are doing is wrong. Hopefully, everyone stays "safe" this series...

Lawd, Chelsea Gray!

Sims, Carrington and especially Hideman haven’t been helping the CT Sun cause tonight.

Bonner having a lot of trouble with Young on her. Are her legs gone after the Chicago series?

GO Chelsea "the Dagger" Gray! Rip 'em up, Tear 'em up. Give it right back to them. Chelsea is STRONG. Rip that ball away and hit those big shots!

Just add me to the list of people who are blown away by what Chelsea Gray is doing this post season.

A'ja's streak of five games with 20 points, 10 rebounds is pretty amazing too.

Courtney Williams was just about the only Connecticut player to show up tonight.

Chelsea is the dagger right through their little bully-ball hearts! So, you want to play thug ball? OK, we can do that. She rubbed her mouth after Alyssa punched her in the face (call went against Chelsea). Then came down and hit a DAGGER. Don't waste energy complaining or throwing a tantrum. Throw a dagger back at them. What a warrior! And the week that The Woman King hits the theaters.

Um...I pick Chelsea to lead me into battle!

No team has ever come back to win from down 0-2 in any WNBA playoff series

The Vegas fans have really gotten behind this team. Too bad they're likely to win the title on the road.

Bonner looking like she is about done with her bball career. I don't remember seeing her just totally passing up open shots like this, some of them in the key with a smaller defender on her.

Tells you why we've been complaining about the ineptitude of the Aces bench all season.

Well, that was hot trash on a platter. I was hoping the Sun would at least force a split in the first two games to guarantee a game 4 because that’s a time and date I could actually attend. But, alas.

There is no shame in losing to this Aces team, but I thought the Suns would put up a bigger fight. So disappointing. Sad
