I find you descriptions of the games quite accurate. I wonder, however, why you feel so strongly that Candace Parker should get the MVP for doing the same thing she did not 2017. Vandersloot has been killing it for years with so little official WNBA recognition of such powerful play. I think part of the problem of the WNBA's artificially-created "star" status system is that journalists seldom look beyond the "favored few" which results in some of our best players never being officially recognized. Please look beyond the traditional choices at the real impact so many exceptional players have on their teams.

I have Vandersloot listed in the potential MVP list! She's been great this year. To me, Parker has been more impactful on both ends, though. We'll see how the last few weeks shake out!
