MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Lynx have been in this position before. Its not ideal, but the defending WNBA champions have overcome the same predicament in the past.Down 1-0 in the WNBA Finals, the Lynx find themselves with work to do against the Los Angeles Sparks following L.A.s 78-76 victory in Sundays Game 1.En route to the 2015 WNBA title, Minnesota fell in the first game against the Indiana Fever before eventually rallying to win the championship in five games.We were in this position last year, said Lynx guard Lindsay Whalen, who had 18 points in Sundays loss. You regroup, you see what you can do to recover and get back for Tuesday night. We have been a group thats been together for a long time and been a part of a lot of these, so that will be our focus.Los Angeles defense was a big reason the Sparks emerged victorious in Game 1. Brian Aglers team forced 16 Minnesota turnovers and converted those into 18 points at the other end.Its unlikely that the Sparks will hold Lynx leading scorer Maya Moore scoreless in the first half Tuesday like they did Sunday, but another stout defensive effort against Moore and Co. certainly will be key for taking a 2-0 series lead.We respect her, and we respect that whole team, but we really respect what she can do, Agler said of Moore, who finished Sundays game with 18 points. Its not like we dont think thats going to happen. We know its going to happen.Los Angeles is in search of its first WNBA title since 2002. The current core of players is not as battle tested in the Finals like Minnesota. The Lynx are winners of three of the last five WNBA championships and are trying to become just the second franchise to win four titles.In recent years, its been the Lynx knocking the Sparks out of the Western Conference playoffs on their way to the Finals. With the new change to the WNBAs playoffs that seeds teams regardless of conference, Minnesota and Los Angeles have the opportunity to square off in the Finals.For Sparks star Candace Parker, that means her first Finals comes against the defending champs.Were used to kind of meeting them before the finals, so it had a feel like before, Parker said. I think in general at first obviously theres some nerves, but you kind of get lost in the game and just trying to execute.That quest for a fourth ring has already gotten off to a bumpy start for Minnesota after losing at the buzzer on Sunday. Los Angeles hopes to keep that momentum going.Moving forward to Tuesday, we have to make sure we keep our same focus and same energy out there on the floor because we know theyre a hungry team, Agler said. Theyre trying to make history, and theyre going to come after it. P.J. Johnson Jersey . The 43-year-old closer, in his 19th and final big league season, has said hed like to play the outfield.
