Watched Lauren. Her team is really bad.

Watched the game. She had some bright spots. She has a very sluggish team that is more 1:1 than team. They are young and will get better - I'm glad this season is short and can't wait for her to become the star she is destined to be.

I watched until halftime. Saw at least one successful high-low pass to McCown; next attempt was blocked. Lauren is looking more confident.

Lauren plays on CBS at 3 today. I'll record and watch later, so I can fast-forward unless she's on the court.

Actually I won't waste time watching it as the Fever lost and Lauren only played seven minutes, scored two with no boards or assists.

LC on the bench. What a waste! Coach played bigs sparingly. TM to slow. Lauren was the key, but key was on the bench. Frustrating!

I agree. She needs more playing time. Why not let her get it. This team is not going to win a championship this year.

It seems the head coach that they have doesn't understand the advantage she possesses in McGowan and Cox. She's short, so she probably was a guard and, therefore, is oriented toward guard dominant offense/defense.

She, obviously, made the decision to match up with Dallas with the smaller, athletic lineup. In doing so, she gave away the team's advantage in size, the league leading offensive rebounding advantage, and opened up the lane for the quick Dallas players to have a go at the rim any time they wanted.

If I owned this team, I'd get me a coach that understands the benefits of having players like McGowan and Cox. Almost no one in the league can congest the lane as well as those two together.

Respect the game.

Sounds like they need to hire Bill Laimbeer away from the LV Aces.

Lauren looked 'out of sync" and a step behind the offensive AND defensive scheme. She may still need to 'catch up" because of the time she missed.

Yes, she exited the game with a knee injury. The Fever went down big early, they inserted the bench who did very well, and then Lauren went down and it got it went downhill.

People need to realize it is a big adjustment to the WNBA our of college. With some players it takes longer. Some skill sets also do not translate as well to the next level and take more adjustments. Usually, we won't be able to tell until at least their second year.

Agreed, and this adjustment applies to both the player moving from college to the WNBA and the team that she is joining. The unique circumstances of this season make this adjustment even more challenging then it would be in more normal times.

While their WL record does not reflect it, the Fever have a considerable amount of talent on their roster. We won't really know what they are capable of until next season.

I pray it is not serious.

It's Diabetes Awareness Month, so here's an article about LC from the Fever's website:

It's great to see her using her voice to inspire others.
