What about the T on Ionescu? Bad call?

Fiebich is so good. Whether it's just catching the ball shot-ready and not hesitating, or putting the ball on the floor, cutting with purpose, or posting up size mismatches, when she's aggressive offensively she adds so much to the Liberty.

And on the season in general, Kennedy Burke's three point shooting has been a huge x-factor. She shot 25.9% from three last year and an amazing 47.9% this year on more than double the attempts. Even with adding Cloud and Johannes, I was afraid that losing BLH and Kayla Thornton would be losing too much on the wing, since a big strength of the Liberty was their size and versatility on the wing, offensively and defensively. But Burke becoming a knock down shooter has helped fill that hole really effectively. For the playoffs though, they absolutely need JJ to be healthy.
Just because it happened to you, doesn't make it interesting.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Yesterday I was lying; today I'm telling the truth.

This is a pure lazy hot take but we cannot win if we aren't 100%. Not having JJ is killing us.

Cloud and Ionescu just swept the Skills challenge and 3 point Contest. Hopefully this is a good sign for the 2nd half of the season

There's an online shop called Baller Behavior selling "Fiebich Please" tee shirts. I'm tempted.

Hey if anyone is interested, the All Star Game is tonight. Both Sabrina and Stewie are playing and our coach Sandy B. is coaching Team Clark.

I saw this on Reddit and it got picked up by the Liberty Instagram -- Liberty players as dawgs:

Leonie Fiebich - A f---ing wolf.

Sounds about right.

Fiebich and Jones are the two players that really push us over the edge.

Man...when Sabrina started clearing those racks in the final round of the contest, I lost my sh*t. :lol:

The All Star game itself was meh, but it was good to see the sisterhood of the league on display. As well as those shirts that put the league owners on notice.

It's time to pay up.
