Angel Reese Does It AGAIN! And the Dream Look Terrifying

The Atlanta Dream walked into Indiana and snapped the Fever’s winning streak and they looked dangerous doing it. In today’s episode, I break down Atlanta’s full-team win, Angel Reese’s big performance, Rhyne Howard’s impact beyond the box score, and why the Fever should still leave this game with their heads held high. Then we get into a bigger WNBA conversation: should the league start tracking more advanced effort stats like deflections, loose-ball recoveries and screen assists? Because sometimes the box score does not tell the full story. Plus, the Commissioner’s Cup Final is officially set with the Las Vegas Aces taking on the New York Liberty, and I have thoughts on who has the edge. We also need to talk about the WNBA schedule, because six games one night and one game the next makes absolutely no sense. And yes, I have a mini-rant about how long reviews are taking this season. Drop your thoughts in the comments: Should the WNBA add deflections as an official stat? And who do you have winning the Commissioner’s Cup: Aces or Liberty?
