The rest vs. rust debate comes up every year in every sport. Reeve knows that but would rather not make it a regular discussion topic. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a dangerous situation to be in, to talk about it all the time,\u201d she said. \u201cWe certainly don\u2019t talk about it with the team. I wish there was an easy answer. I wish there was a magical answer. We have to be playing well going into the playoffs and there are still things we need to work on.\u201d<\/p>\n
The most sensible \u2013 and likely \u2013 option is for Reeve to pick spots to rest regulars while trying to maintain continuity on the court. It shouldn\u2019t be that complicated.<\/p>\n
The Lynx have been the WNBA\u2019s most dominant team because they are the most complete team. Their 32 wins stand as a franchise record. They lead the league in offensive and defensive rating, three-point shooting, assists and assortment of other categories. The roster is deep and versatile. They have a lot of good players flanking MVP favorite, Napheesa Collier. That cohesion won\u2019t disappear if a starter rests a game or two in the next 10 days. <\/p>\n
Their depth and unselfishness make them difficult to defend and entertaining to watch. The Lynx finished with 29 assists on their 36 baskets against the Wings.<\/p>\n
