I'm so glad to see the Mercury advance to the playoffs for the first time in seven years. The first round will be tough. We were 1-2 against the Storm during the season and they have some great players. I believe we will beat them and since we have had a fairly easy time with the second and third seeds, I see the Mercury making it to the Finals. I see them losing to Detroit or Indiana there. I'm hoping to go to one of the playoff games.

The team is playing as well as anyone heading into the playoffs so that helps. How screwy is the playoff system, though, where the higher seed starts on the road. I assume it is to save on travel costs, but it's pretty off.

Here's something to be happy about. The Mercury won the first game of the series, the only road game, 101-84. Taylor, Taurasi and Pondexter all scored over 20. Tangela Smith pulled down 10 boards and got a couple of blocks and steals. Now they only have to win one of two home games to move on. Lookin' good.

New York also beat Detroit by a good margin. Could be a big upset there.

Hell yes. Mercury in the driver's seat!

Go Mercury!!!

 

[Nasser22]

The game is at 4PM on ESPN 2 today. No excuse why yall shouldn't at least check out half of the game. They could move on to the Western Finals with a win.

Great game. Mercury were up by like 22 and the Storm came back within 2.

LETS GO MERCURY!!!

 

[Nasser22]

Hell yes! Western Conference Finals! Hopefully against San Antonio.

Congrats Mercury on a good season and I hope they win the finals this year But will any of you suns fans find it a little upsetting that if the mercury won the wnba title they will win a championship before the suns?

 

[FArting]

Go Mercury

No, I will be very happy. I'll be more upset if the Mavericks win it, like the Heat did, before the Suns.

 

[Nasser22]

San Antonio beat Sacramento 80-78.

Phoenix-SA WCF, holy crap.

Mercury won 102-100! Three more wins 'til a championship! The Mercury were dominating the game, but what's funny is the Stars made a great comeback only to lose it on an iffy foul call with under two seconds.

 

[Gee!]

I can now see why the WBNA gets a low attendance.. They have their playoffs right in the middle of the playoff chase for MLB and the start of the NFL season.. Has it always been this time of year?

I don't know but you should watch.

Cant pull myself away from the Dbacks right now and when the Cards play (even a preseason), it makes it double hard..

 

[Nasser22]

Only 3 more wins to go though. CHAMPIONSHIP!

The Mercury are in the Finals?

 

[Nasser22]

Every series is three games. They need to win one of the remaining two home games vs. San Antonio.

 

[thirty-two]

Hells Yes.

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

Good for the Mercury, they've deserved a playoff run after the last couple of disappointing seasons they have had.

 

[Nasser22]

The Mercury have just swept the Stars and are heading to the Finals!!! 4-0 in the playoffs so far, baby!

Fever up on the Shock, 1-0 in their series. Game 2 is tomorrow for them.
