Heads up to anyone reading this late, late "tonight" or very early in the morning around 6:00 AM. I got home around 1:00 AM to finish up portions of the Part 2 article, and my Internet is completely down. I tried troubleshooting and was on Chat support for far too long, and it appears to be a wider outage that won't be resolved tonight. Not having full Internet access prevented me from finishing the article and adding the post-game video, audio interviews, etc.
Part 2 will be delayed but will arrive sometime on Wednesday.
I have shaken my head and said it’s coaching. The response: Is it coaching when they have low shooting percentage. Yes. It’s usage. The game is evolving. 44 game season is a long season and when you have Sky & Gabby as the #2&3 players in terms of minutes….and a bench that has the least amount of minutes…that is a usage issue. Injuries hurt us for sure, we would look different with KLS & Jordy…but Dallas has been plagued by injuries and just whooped us….with some FAs that have been available and bouncing around (Berger, and someone I had been eyeing Haley Jones). Chemistry is a huge deal, and I think our players get along, but I don’t think we have the coaching staff that can get that grit out of them on a regular basis. I have enjoyed watching them most of the season, but games like this one are painful…because I don’t see good, consistent schemes.
What is going on with this team?!? It’s a real head scratcher. Our dependable leader Skylar is out for personal reasons and Nneka has an unusually aggressive reaction to another player. Losing badly to the 2nd worst team in the league is humiliating.
Quinn does not know how to use the talent she has. It's really that simple. Wake me up when they lose in the first round of the playoffs to....whoever. It won't matter who they're matched up against.
To give you an idea of how much I wrote previously and lost - if you combine those 2 comments, the first comment that never got posted was easily 4 times longer than that. It was 2 very long paragraphs. I'm going to have to start posting after one paragraph or halfway through one paragraph!
There are a couple of other options you can try. You can log into your email account and start writing your comment, most e-mail servers will save partially written e-mails, so if you lost it, you could recover it. Then when you are finished, select all (Ctrl + A on Windows machine) and then Ctrl + C to Copy and Ctrl + V to paste into the comment section here. Another thing you could try is opening Notepad/Word, typing in there and saving that frequently after each paragraph. Lastly, as you said, you can post multiple comments here. It's fine if you write one paragraph and send it. Then send a follow-up comment later.
It's hard to believe that we are such a talented team yet we can lose so badly to a less talented team. Dallas certainly does have talent and not having Skylar available makes us a different team, but would we have won if she had been available? It's possible but now we'll never know, unfortunately.
Oh my God. It happened again. I wrote a huge comment here and went to post it and it disappeared into thin air. I'm just sick. I wrote a lot about how well the Storm players did in the All-Star game and how I wished that you had done a review of their performances. But that's not reality and we were brought back down to reality in a big way and it really tucked.

This team is lost and have no direction. Not having Skylar hurt but I think they still would've lost. Coaching is the problem with this team.
