Indianapolis Star Article on the Fever's Run | ESPN's Mechelle Voepel's take on Indy getting closer | From yesterday, but Lynx Coach Cheryl Reeve doesn't care if Lin Dunn believes that "jacketgate" was a "lack of respect" at the game | An official Fever piece on Shavonte Zellous | The Fever has a jersey sponsor with Finish Line | And here are some official interviews regarding the partnership
What stuck out to me
The stats that really stuck out to me were that the Lynx only dished 6 total assists (none by Lindsay Whalen or Maya Moore), and gave up 18 turnovers, while the Fever had a more respectable 14 assists to 13 turnovers. In addition, Indiana was dominant in rebounds, and Erlana Larkins grabbed 15 of them.
Shavonte Zellous was the star of Friday's game scoring 30 points. Tamika Catchings as usual was a versatile playmaker adding 17 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks. Erin Phillips and Erlana Larkins also scored in double figures.
So will Indiana win tonight or not?
I'm not the Nostradamus here. I wouldn't be surprised if the Fever seals the deal tonight, but I'm not surprised if Minnesota beats them by 30 tonight either. Wild scoring margin swings are not uncommon.
So that's it.
If this is the last game of the 2012 WNBA season, then this ends a chapter to a successful season in the W overall. However, at the same, I wouldn't mind seeing Game 5 on Wednesday either, so we'll see.
