I can’t help thinking that when a team collapses late so dramatically, it’s on the players, sure, but it’s also on the coach. I felt that way when the Sky fell apart against the Sun in 2022. The coach needs to do something, say something, make some kind of adjustment whatever that may be, to help get the players back on track. And I suspect overall that Cheryl Reeve is just a better coach than Sandy Brondello.
Matthew, Love that breakdown! Also agree with Ron about the coaching. Reeve knows when to sub & when to break the other teams momentum with a time out. Those last minute decisions can be crucial to resetting her players in the right direction. Thanks Matt.
