"You got to talk about us now, you've got no choice," Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve said after her team beat the New York Liberty 94-89 to win the Commissioner's Cup Trophy. "We don't really care what you think, except for right now, when we get to say to you, 'You've got to talk about us.' "We just beat a superteam. You know how hard that is to do? Because you guys love your superteams. That's all you want to talk about. But we just beat a superteam. Let's talk about it." Last season, the WNBA narrative was dominated by discussion of so-called superteams Las Vegas and New York. They met for the 2023 Commissioner's Cup, won by the Liberty, and then in the WNBA Finals, won by the Aces. The Lynx -- whose dynasty years ran from 2011 to 2017, when they won four titles and went to two other Finals -- are ready to be back in the conversation about WNBA championships. The way they played Tuesday proved that, as has their 13-3 start this season. The Commissioner's Cup, an in-season competition started in 2021, has grown in prestige among the players, who compete for a $500,000 prize pool. The Cup format was changed this year with each team playing five regular-season games, rather than the previous 10, to determine their place in the Cup standings. Another change was having all the Cup games in a two-week span and then the final, all in June. "I like the format this year. I like that it's so condensed," said Lynx forward Napheesa Collier, who was the game's MVP with 21 points and 6 rebounds. "It's easier to follow for the fans, and for us [players]. "And it means a lot. We're competitors, and you want to win every game you're in. The money makes it really fun as well. It's a great team we just beat, it's a game we won and we won some money. So it's like a trifecta." That was an appropriate term, considering the game was at UBS Arena next to horse racing's Belmont Park. The Liberty's better finish in Cup play gave them hosting rights, but their home, Barclays Center in Brooklyn, was unavailable Tuesday as it was being prepared for Wednesday's NBA draft. Still, the Liberty crowd showed up loud and especially cheered on Courtney Vandersloot, who returned after missing eight games because of her mother's death from cancer, and Betnijah Laney-Hamilton, back after missing three games with a knee injury. They helped the Liberty get a 50-47 halftime lead. But Minnesota took over in the third quarter, outscoring New York 19-10, and then held off the Liberty in the final quarter. Collier is the Lynx's star, but they also got big games from Bridget Carleton (23 points, 4 rebounds, 5 assists) and Cecilia Zandalasini (15 points off the bench). The two combined to shoot 13-of-16 from the field. Breanna Stewart (24 points, 11 rebounds) and Sabrina Ionescu (23 points, 10 rebounds) led New York. Like Collier, they are on the U.S. 5-on-5 Olympic team coached by Reeve. The Liberty's issue Tuesday, more than anything, was their 21 turnovers. That and the resilience of the Lynx. Reeve isn't shy about saying her team, which rose to No. 1 Monday in the ESPN Power Rankings, has been underestimated. And even though Tuesday's game doesn't count in the regular-season standings, the message the Lynx sent was clear. "We have a lot of offensive threats, but on defense, we're so solid," Collier said. "That's why it's so hard to play against us. Our aggressiveness, our willingness to sell out on anything [because] we have each other's backs. "This is the most talented, most fun team I've been on since I've been here. We want to build on this, we don't want to peak here. We want to achieve bigger things than this at the end of the season." 722002755de20fffa426d55a60d50b81 Small Beach Cottages House Caribbean 2379766 83d0bd1e5b760ffbbd9ee1fe897fccf9 68497VR 1505325928 ?1506337867 4345bb20dfb915706bbe6ff1561ac377 4283c861a175c0f6be6a90e6fd60130b 85d392c487f68b38a0da6d36749c53f7 9204e141fcc40dfc519ec6d467e958a4 A434d6a2208444b163441a7326c450fd 68480vr 1492543024 ?1492543024 D7c2cef3f95d12ee454db89915d02bc1 46232la 1466541177 1479211005 ?1506332388 97f185a6123d7a4b7e13cf34ed1d227c 2ad13f49262cbef58a389e71414c5de5 93929f724b02466a4d5ca38cb606ff4b 1fe5078e878b283f2d5781609b9827b0 F70901df73eddb077fdbc1488beefa29 7c60d33d301f2ae138ce9684d82a51d7 F6b36956d08688defe0286cdca184674 62df09eb9ab7a7184622a672565e766e 7978a26b7e4f5c44c4363ff67f3a02ec 8baa86e7c5b6e820b21d7330849c3aa4 D6c7fd94bd097818c0c121c49dad8ece 5d6174a4b26b3a8f3597c51b5ea57d6e 061a96e9520b407c975e3f3a309776c2 Ba7e51770b43bbd37076f15c079342c8 527fca306fff297373a8d3fbcbbed6a7 8c4e08a77acbbd3c8c268c83b1979bd1 F8012de565b5dbe989492f7d99b7c724 2e80d7016fef71c89553f1d92574b0a4 Small Beach Cottage Floor Plans 6408612194c0604d8f46cd95b269ee59 87c47643e033a1205d43d688a3e2ea53 2425 Exterior M.webp
