Dolson, Quigley and Parker are all out for the Sky...that is a lot of smarts and points that aren't playing....Copper and Stevens will have to play well. We'll expect DeShields to go for her normal 4-12 from the floor.
Don Best has Alyssa Thomas as questionable for the Sun....doubt it, as Achilles issues take a 9-12 months to heal.
Jasmine Thomas played last game, and played well, so there should be no confusion between the two Thomases.
Sun have played very well this season and I agree with Brutal,....they don't need A. Thomas for them to win, and it might take a very good season by the Sun for management to realize that A. Thomas doesn't make their team better. I could see her ending up on a team like the Lynx, whose coach has always liked supreme effort players.
Rather than clog Brutal's thread, I'll put these here....here's some coaching trends for those coaches with the longest resume.
Derek Fisher 11-17 ATS on the road, 6-11 ATS on the road after a win.
Cheryl Reeve 111-83 ATS at home.......38-23 ATS at home off a loss.
Curt Miller 23-14 ATS as away dog off a loss.
As a Mystic coach Thibault has been 43-32 ATS as away dog, only 12-19 as a home dog. and 14-27 ATS at home in the first 12 games of the season.
Sandy Brondello is only 17-25 as a home favorite off a loss.
Wow! Hughes of the Storm just announced his retirement....THAT guy could coach.
Doubtful if anyone who replaces him will be nearly as good. Usually teams in the middle of the season continue on at pretty close to the same level, before dropping off a cliff the next season....Bird will likely be finished after this season, so the Storm will be a fade team soon enough.
