Banham: "It's felt gross. It's probably how you guys look at it. We're just not consistent. It just feels gross. This is gross basketball and we know that."

Williams: "It's starts with us. I don't think it's anything Tyler's doing to be honest with you. We haven't executed. We haven't taken care of the ball. We have to be better to be frank."

Marsh: "Our offense has struggled mostly due to our inability to take care of the ball. The offense works when the movement is there."

Marsh: "Right now we're looking to get back to that mindset of competing regardless of who we're down with. We're not doing a good enough job of competing right now."

Marsh: "You always have the personnel to compete. It's not a talent thing right now. We're looking for fight. Competing is what we're looking for."

Marsh: "The messaging is compete. We have to find that will to compete and that's been difficult. We have to dig in and find that."

Marsh: "Angel is day-to-day. Pretty sore this morning and didn't want to mess with it being a back issue. We'll see how she is on Sunday."

The 8 points Chicago scored in the 2Q are a new season low. The preview low was 9 points against the New York Liberty on May 22.

1) No updates. All we've been told is they're both day to day 2) No update on when they could return 3) IMO, I don't think the Sky will make any moves before the deadline unless they trade a big piece (AR, KC) which wouldn't make the most sense longterm

Halftime Thoughts (1/2): -Turnovers. That's it. -There's very little offensive movement. It's been incredibly stagnant the last 3 games. There's just no off ball movement at all -Defensive discipline is better but opponents have figured out how to spread the Sky out

Thoughts (2/2): -HVL & Westbeld have looked more confident as of late. You can tell that they're starting to understand the speed and flow of the WNBA game. Not nearly as many hesistations from them -I'm loving this bucket boys performance at halftime. So Chicago >>

Really liking Marquesha Davis' speed and ability to get downhill. She moves fast with the ball and has a knack at creating some extra space to get a shot off. While she's still looking for her first points in a Sky uniform, she brings an extra step to this Chicago team.

Sky limited the turnovers to just 2 in the 1Q which is a good sign. SEA's defense has been very effective in creating tough looks and being disruptive in allowing any flow to happen. CHI's defense got better as the quarter came to an end SEA up 28-18 after 1Q
