Phoenix might be tabbed as the favorites to win it all, but the Lynx weren't buying it tonight.
From the get go this was truly Minnesota's night.
First came the ring ceremony and championship banner unveiling in front of a packed house of fervent Lynx fans. The players looked giddy checking out their rings, although the pillars of the team have been here before, aside from Sylvia Fowles getting her first. She's been chasing this for seven seasons.
The ceremony started with the sweet sound of Prince filling the arena. A tribute commemorating the Minneapolis icon was shown after the players received their rings for last season's glorious championship run.
