I can only think of 3 key factors that will play a role in the Mercurys win over the Sparks tomorrow nite.

First-Diana Taurasi.  Need I say more? Probably shouldnt but here are my thoughts. With Taurasi averaging over 20pts per game and with the emotion and intensity she has been playing with the last few nites its almost impossible to stop Phx. She is this teams leader and you can see her passion for this game everytime she steps onto the court. She is amazing. She will use all her talent wheather playing offense or defense. She has a gift for playing the sport of basketball and I dont feel there is another WNBA player that can match her one on one.

Second- The entire Mercury team.  Now, I hate to just point out Taurasi from the others as I did above. I just dont think its something she would like. But I did anyways. So now, let me give credit to the rest of the gals. Pondexter works well with Taurasi off the break and them two together on the court are very dangerous. Pondexter can get hot very fast and they both feed off each other. I have noticed that Pondexter starts the game on fire but tends to get off beat after a few minutes. You know, after she hits the 4 or 5 3's in a row. :) She seems to have a hard time coming back once her rhythm gets broken. She to is an amazing player in her own right. Penny Taylor is just awesome off the bench. YOu see her playing her heart out each and everytime. She is wonderful to watch. Just a nice smooth shooter.  Bonner and Smith have come a long way and have contributed so much.  If you look at each game, someone different has contributed in such a hugh way. Of course you have Taurasi and Cappie and Taylor but take a close look at the rest of the team. So much talent that its probably hard to figure out who you want out on the court at any given time. This team has grown tremendously. They play unselfish ball and have one goal in mind. TO WIN!! No one is better and no one is less. They are a team, they are all the same!

Third- home court and the X FACTOR!! Cheer and Cheer loud. Appreciate all the work that they have put into this season and the past few games. It is extremely hard to play at this level. The talent that challenges them is right there at the top with them. Its physical, tiring, demanding and not everyone can do it. These girls can and they have.  Cheer, scream, get into it and share with the Phx. Mercury this Championship victory!!!
