MINNESOTA LYNX - 2011 WNBA CHAMPIONS
Seimone Augustus and the Minnesota Lynx turned up the defensive pressure on Angel McCoughtry and the Atlanta Dream as the Minnesota Lynx beat the Atlanta Dream, 73-67 on Friday night to complete a three-game sweep of the WNBA championship series.
Augustus, who was named the Finals MVP, had 16 points and Maya Moore, returning to her Atlanta home, had 15 - including a key 3-pointer late in the game - to lead a balanced scoring attack as the Lynx won their first WNBA title.
McCoughtry had a game-high 22 points, including nine in the fourth quarter, but she made only 9 of 25 shots as the Dream were held to 34.6 percent shooting from the field.
Minnesota head coach Cheryl Reeve won her first WNBA title since 2008 when she was an assisstant to Bill Laimbeer & Rick Mahorn when they won the championship with the Detroit Shock.
