What a fun win today against a talented Fever team. Interesting contrast of team styles: Indy relies on its 3 stars scoring over 20 PPG (the Wolves have none!), while the Lynx are much deeper...all five starters average 15 or more, while the Fever have only their 3. It's (sort of) still Phee's team, but on any given night Williams, Miles or McBride can easily lead them to victory. This is a really fun team to watch!

The Wolves starting backcourt went 23-34 from the field and scored 55 points. Both teams shot the ball well

This might seem obvious but Boston is a very good player. It seems like she has taken another step since even last season and she turns 25 later this year.

You guys keep referring to the Wolves. Is this in the spirit of the biological men playing women's sports debate?

This might be the best starting WNBA 5 since the dynasty lynx. Potentially 4 future Hall of Famers in the lineup.

Just love where this team is at

I shouldn’t even respond to this (not at you Cool) because I’m risking derailing this thread. But My God, can we just talk basketball. People are using the WNBA as a political weapon, I can’t open my Twitter with out it being a cesspool talking about the WNBA.

The basketball is the best it’s ever been for the WNBA, if the MLB has a lockout the WNBA has a chance to pass baseball as the 3rd most popular American League. I just wish they would talk basketball

Haha…me too! I typed wolves first and corrected. Pretty amazing to have a full house there on the best day of the summer!

Boston is good, but she made a boneheaded play late in the game. Clark gave her a perfect wraparound pass at the top of the key, but instead of taking the wide open three, she drove and traveled. I’m a fan of Clark, but I didn’t like her pissed off reaction. She’s a terrific player, but that was a bad teammate move. .

Boston is one of my favorite players in the league. She plays so physical. Clark has been on a heater lately, Lynx “slowed” her down today. Clark has always had a massive temper, hate using stereotypes but she comes off as a spoiled private school kid. (Hate what she deals with off the court)

Kek, you don't think the WNBA has invited a lot of this by their own actions over the years? Dan Wetzel wrote a nice column for ESPN (of all places!) on the WNBA's complicity in the politicization of the sport. And he only touches on the very recent past.

But I agree with you that it takes away from the product on the court, which is increasingly compelling for basketball fans of all stripes.
