wnba It won't be easy for them to duplicate their 2010's championship season By Aaron Lommers, Herald Writer advertisement | your ad here SEATTLE -- The list of accomplishments for the 2010 Seattle Storm is quite lengthy -- undefeated at home, undefeated in the playoffs, tied for the most regular-season wins in WNBA history with 28.Oh, and one more thing -- a WNBA championship.
It's going to be difficult for the Storm to match those achievements, but starting today, reigning WNBA Most Valuable Player Lauren Jackson and company will give it a shot.
"It's about getting better every day. We really are a team that lives in the moment. We did not go into last year saying 'Let's go undefeated at home, let's do this, let's do that,' you know we didn't," point guard Sue Bird said. "Those things just happened and generally that's how things like that happen. You're just focused on doing your best and getting the job done, and that's when records are set."
The Storm players and coaches might be tired of hearing it, but their accolades from last year no doubt will draw comparisons to this season.
"I think last year's team will sort of be a measuring stick, not just for us, but for a lot of teams," Storm head coach Brian Agler said. "This is a new season, we have a new team, we have a new schedule, we have new opponents and it has its own dynamic, so it's not the same. Does that mean that we are going to be better or worse or things are going to change? I can't answer that."
