Fun game. Lessons to be learned for both sides. Lynx had some half court issues knock on the door once the traps game (and keep the defense consistent). Good fight from the Fever in the second half but their defense *has* to be a certain level to elevate the offense.

Big time drive and finish from Olivia Miles. Good patience to fake a reject, see the space and turn the corner

Lynx haven't been able to poke at the Fever traps. Taking some quick shots. Good chance to be a little more intentional in the half court.

(kind of waiting for the Lynx to use Phee as a screener to let her post vs. the help and see what the Fever do but...haven't quite done it yet)

The Fever are hammering the trap button to start the second half, keeping an eye on that. One, can the Lynx get them in rotation. Two, the help on the roll has been there but that is opening up some post up opportunities.

Good flow from the Lynx, Fever are putting two on the ball in pick and roll. Hull is there to help on the roll. That goes right into a post up for Natasha Howard with no help.

26 made field goals, 18 assists for the Lynx in the first half. Just been a machine. Tough part for the Fever is it's been a little bit of everything. Pick and roll they've given up drives, pops, got hit on switches, two on the ball has opened plays up.

These drives from Kelsey Mitchell have been *tough* in this first half

mini adjustment in the second quarter, Lynx not just showing help on Clark's drives but really working to be active and dig at the ball

Lynx go with Pistol 5 action for Olivia Miles, like mixing in more pass and cut for her. See how the defense reacts, unlock the cutting.

well alright Olivia Miles

The thing about Olivia Miles: just has poked at every pick and roll coverage teams have tried to throw out. Fever have gone drop, late switch and here an outright switch and...Miles has had the answer.

Nice flow from the Fever here. Aliyah Boston bringing it up and you can see Caitlin Clark calling for a backscreen. That whole right side is open but Clark fakes off that into a handoff from Boston for 3.

Lynx with 15 made field goals, 10 assists Shot 75% from the field (15 of 20) and 71% from 3 (5 of 7) Fever with 13 made field goals, 8 assists, shot 65% from the field (13 of 20) and 50% from 3 (3 of 6) We'll see which defense tightens up first, stop + run might separate

16 for Kelsey Mitchell in the first quarter what an insane stretch of basketball this has been

That comfort Caitlin Clark has had getting to that midrange jumper continues to stand out.

Olivia Miles and Napheesa Collier chemistry is growing in pick and roll. Miles engages the drop, holds two. Finds Phee late and even with the weakside in that's a paint touch.

Lynx vs. Fever and *both* teams are pushing off *made* baskets. -Courtney Williams bucket and it's Caitlin Clark with a great pass to Billings -Quick inbound to Olivia Miles, high screen and it's a layup Fun stuff

Fever go with Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston in pick and roll. Howard above the 3PT line and that turns into a late switch. Good work on the weakside, defense waiting for the roll and Billings cuts backdoor. Good find from Clark.

Lynx/Fever should be a fun one, excited to see what it looks like with how both sides have been playing
