Okay, let's talk about that first quarter.
We talked about this on Wednesday, Angel Reese's double-double streak and Ryan Howard's three-point record.
But tonight, the story was Alicia Gray.
24 points.
How did she find those shots against New York Switching?
It was spacing, Allison.
New York had their bigs out, but they were rotating late.
Gray recognized the switch mismatches immediately.
She attacked the rim, drew the help, and then kicked it out when the defense collapsed.
It wasn't just isolation.
It was reading the rotations perfectly.
And Naz Hillman chipped in 16.
That's huge production from the frontcourt when Sibali is out.
Did you see how they handled the physicality?
Absolutely.
When you lose key bodies like Breanna Stewart and Angel Reese gets hit, you need depth.
Hillman played tough inside.
He set solid screens and finished through contact.
The offensive efficiency stayed high because they didn't force bad shots.
They trusted the process.
She was the conductor here.
She kept the ball moving, prevented New York from settling into any defensive rhythm.
right? And remember, Maureen Fathu led New York with only 14 points and four assists.
That tells you everything.
