San Antonio Silver Stars vs Chicago Sky Game Preview



The San Antonio Silver Stars are facing the Chicago Sky in many of the early games of the WNBA tommorrow. Whatever your doing at that time(either working, at school or sleeping) be sure to check the games out!!

Star-divide


Let me break it down for you: THE STARS need to stop messing around with one game looking good for the playoffs, and then the next game looking like a lottery team. It's too much for this fan. Either get me excited for the playoffs OR excited for Maya Moore :)

Considering how bad the West is, I think it's safe to say the Stars will make the playoffs.

Anyways, let's get to the game preview shall we?

The Chicago Sky will also need a win to keep up with their Eastern Conference counterparts in the Eastern Conference. I can't decide on whether or not Chicago needs Maya Moore or the playoffs in order to boost their franchise & attendance. AllState Arena looks like a good family venue, and it's a shame Chicago Sky fans can't see that!

Moving on, I can talk all day about how the Stars need to rebound, how EVERYONE needs to get on the same page and play good defence, but until the Silver Stars can do it consistently, I'll stop talking about it.

The Starting LineUps for the SilverStars
PG - Becky Hammon
SG - Edwige Lawson Wade
SF - Chamique Holdsclaw
SF - Sophia Young
C - Michelle Snow

The Starting LineUps for the Chicago Sky

PG - Dominique Canty
SG - Jia Perkins
SF - Tamera Young
PF - Catherine Kraayveld(sp)?
C - Slvyia Fowles

Basically, this game is at 12:30 pm EST, 11:30 pm CST, 9:30 pm PST, so whoever is awake and plays well in the morning/afternoon should win this game.

I think the Stars win this game because of Sophia Young. I think she will be a HUGE factor in deciding the Stars fate in this one, even if she does see an awful lot of Slvyia Fowles in the post. Usually Becky Hammon plays well against the Sky, BUT Becky Hammon does NOT play well in this early games, so that is why I picked Sophia.

This game will be on LiveAccess at All State Arena.

One LAST thing: GO SILVER STARS!! :)
