Re: First-round predictions

I also think that LA will take Seattle, maybe not in straight games, but LA is just too hungry.

Houston has a very good shot at beating Sacto, and I would rather play that team in the first round than the second, like we did last year. Houston has to win the first game at home, and then just take care of their business...like the DIDN'T in 2003!!!

Not worried about the east cuz Connecticut is the best team, but not sure they won't be taken out by a more physical or better defensive team, as in Detroit or Indy.

Man, if the Comets can get to the WCF's, that will be a great accomplishment for this injury hampered season...and Dawn hasn't missed a beat being injured, and she was the main one people were worried about.

COME ON COMETS!!! KEEP THE DRIVE FOR FIVE ALIVE!!!

Re: First-round predictions

Mystics 1 Sun 2

Fever 2 Shock 1
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
Storm 1 Sparks 2

Comets 2 Monarchs 1



Im guessing that Connecticut will have a little trouble early on since they now have both Katie Douglas AND Nykesha Sales...seeing that they really haven't played with each other in a while. Im probaly wrong though, lol. The Comets/Monarchs and Fever/Shock are both tossups...Its anybodys game. I picked the Fever over the Shock because I like them more. and because they have T-Catch. I really don't know what to expect with the Comets now that TT, Swoopes and Staley are all healthy...Something tells me that a certain "X-Factor" for Houston will show her colors during this short series. The Monarchs don't scare me like the Sparks do, so the Comets it is.

Re: First-round predictions

It depends..game threads are useless if your talking to yourself, lol. We all know how it is around here in this particular "area." ...Nevertheless, I don't see why I shouldn't.

*thats if I'm around..I may have band practice or somethin' on SOME of these "playoff" days.

That's true.

I can't say if I'll write or not because I'm going to school on Thursday and unlike you, I don't have a laptop. Maybe one of my roommates'll let me borrow there's.

Re: First-round predictions

Luv your sig, Mr. Mod...very insightful about the players...so I know you have seen her...

12 ppg is not a lot, but when you have 10 people on your team that can score an average of 8 per game, you will probably get up to 80 points...and that can win you a ball game in the WNBA.

DeMaya Walker is the only player I am concerned about at this point. She has come back from her pregnancy and been playing with vengence, and more minutes. A tough match up...Tina can guard her, but that leaves Snow to try and control Yo...

Swoopes will be busy with Nicole Powell...the assasin of the bunch. And Penacheiro is not a slouch when it comes to beating the Comets. Someone needs to get into Lawson's head early, and keep her off balance...she can score in bunches, especially if she is feeling good.

The game will be a seemingly snoozing, grind-it-out fest...it will be tough. The Comets just need to spread the floor, not get caught up in the "White Line" area, hit their outside shots, and keep the cutters coming quickly underneath. No missing the chippies...that will lose you the game. If you can get inside on Sacto, you better make hay while the sun shines, cuz they will collapse in the paint like a cheap tent.

The best news about having to play the Sacramento Monarchs is that they are beatable, unlike last year where they were the team on a mission. Their determination to win the 'Ship last year was impenatrable. But, that was last year.

THE DRIVE FOR FIVE IS STILL ALIVE!!!

I'll have to agree with you, Coach. I can easily see this series as one of them tough defensive-low scoring series...which I think favors Sacramento
