League leading Perth have ended a three-game WNBL Victorian road trip in style, defeating the Southside Melbourne Flyers 114-80 at the Vic State Basketball Centre.
After beating Bendigo and Geelong earlier this week, the Lynx will head home full of confidence after a second-half demolition on Sunday secured the 34-point win over a Flyers team who have now suffered five straight defeats.
The Lynx rattled in 64 points after halftime en route to the second-highest score in club history.
Teonni Key led scorers with 26 points as the American dominated the post, notching eight rebounds to narrowly miss out on a double-double.
Georgia Amoore did finish with a double double through 20 points and 11 assists, while Anneli Maley also achieved the feat with her 19 points and 10 rebounds.
Amoore's tally included three triples, as the Lynx were sensational from outside with 14 three-pointers.
But coach Ryan Petrik feels his team can still improve in attack.
"The offence is very, very different to anything we've put in before, and we think it's going to take a while to get used to it," Petrik said.
"Clearly, 114 would suggest we've already got it.
"There's moments where it looks brilliant, and there's other moments where it gets a bit gunky and clunky.
"As we get more reps with it, some more practice time with it, we think it'll get better and better."
It's a different story for the Flyers, who still only have one win for the season and have now dropped to the bottom of the ladder.
Flyers coach Sam Mackinnon said the game was a tough lesson for his young team in how to regain momentum after the Lynx's second-half run.
"They've added some serious talent to that group," Mackinnon said of the Lynx.
"So it was always going to be a good test for us, and I thought we started off the game really well and enjoyed it.
"But it was tough to pull it back when they shoot so many threes, and I think they had three or four and-ones in the first half as well.
"Good learnings for us and we're in amongst it right now, so we've just got to learn from it, and we get to play Geelong next week and try to rectify it."
