That Was Just.... UGLY
Iris and I picked a heck of game for our first game of the season.
The Storm couldn't make shots, couldn't rebound, weren't fighting for loose balls....
They were a mess. And Minnesota, to their credit, took advantage by making their shots, getting rebounds, and going for the loose balls. They outplayed the Storm in every way.
In the fourth quarter, the Storm managed to get their act together a little, but it was too late. The box score tells the sad, sad tale.
Sometime in the 2nd quarter, Jayda Evans wrote on her liveblog: "Cash, Little, Jackson, and Smith lead Seattle with two points apiece. (enter laugh track here)"
Yeah. It was that bad.
Lauren Jackson did not seem to be her usual self, but Jayda Evans tweets that LJ "says [her] health [is] OK".
Sue Bird had a game-high 24 points, which reminds me of those games back in 2008 and 2009 when LJ was injured, and Sue had to pick up the slack.
If you want to wallow in the misery, here's the Seattle Times article about the game.
Let's just hope that this was their stinker of the season, and things will pick up from here.

"The Lynx are shooting 72 percent from the field and the Storm is shooting 15.4"... practically says it all!
