Is there any question that rookie coach Grandmama Gillom leads the (waaaay early) race for Coach of the Year?

Team gets off to a great start, Augustus is playing like a woman possessed, then she goes down with an ACL. The Lynx stagger through their next two games, then get on the road to recovery.

Last night they spanked the Phoenix Mercury, 109-80, behind Mrs. a-Whi-iggins (anyone out there old enough to remember the Carol Burnett show?) and Roneeka Hodges' 22 points.

Nice to see close to 6,000 at the Target Center. The Lynx, and the league, needs this. (Ditto with Washington, Chicago and those stoopid Fevers.)

Oh, and good to hear from Seimone.
