It's every time though, they get close but then can't seal the deal.


This is a tight one. Sandy just had to call a TO because our defense is ass

Lexi sees how Chiney made a smooth transition to media and wants in. Not a bad idea tbh.

I feel really old knowing that I watched her father in the slam dunk contest :oops:

Any word of Napheesa?

Liberty win. These games versus the Sun are always a fight

Stewie with 14rebs and 3 blocks, two of them on the last two defensive possessions.

Zero offensive structure for the Liberty, but defense, especially Stewie, held it down.

Yep. That shot Sabrina hit over Bonner was insane. She almost made that lay up on the previous drive too.

She isn't perfect but the growth from last year to now has gone unnoticed with all the hype surrounding the rookies.

Yeah I was not a fan of those last two possessions but clearly the plan is to let Sabrina roll. I would like to see us draw some plays up for Stewie but she was working so hard on defense that I guess it balances out

I'm not even sure if it was about letting Sabrina roll. Sun were pressing and it was clearly working and Sabrina really just tried to make something out of nothing. Failed once, worked once.

Jonquel needs to get it going offensively again. She and Stewie better bring it on offense tomorrow.

Ok, that was blatant by the Sky for Angel to get her last points. Do I care? No
