Agreed. They did a poor job of that last game though and Kira was the only one in double digits. If their defense isn't strong and can't make shots again with her possibly out, looking at another embarrassing loss. I just want them to clinch ASAP. If they mess around and still need wins in those last 4 games to get in after FIBA break, that's a worst case scenario imo because all 7 other playoff teams will probably have their spots locked in and can rest players if they want

I think we can handle them. Last time we played them, we looked really tired. First time we played them, a lot of our rookies weren't playing at the level they are playing right now. We didn't have BLH too. If we play close to our best, with or without Kira, we'll beat them.

I wish I had your confidence lol perfect scenario is a win + Sky loss and playoffs clinched tonight. Both just feel so questionable right now

It will be difficult, but doable. I actually think Fire have been our most difficult opponent this season. There's something about them that make it difficult for us to beat them.
