Ionescu iced it with free throws. What a wild comeback that was. 39-17 run to an 86-81 win against ATL. 10-1!

Thanks JB. I mainly post about the Liberty on the WNBA forum but if enough folks here are interested I'll flood this thread with as much Liberty content that I can find as we get into the dog days of summer.

This was a good one, when the Liberty lock in defensively, there's not much anyone can do. It sucks we didn't make the Cup finals but the objective is to win championship #2 and we are well on our way.

Sabrina Ionescu with back to back 30 bangers too. I'm still pissed that we lost to Indiana the other day.

i'm a pretty devout liberty/W fan. but there just hasn't been enough traction even on the W forum to kinda stay consistent. but the liberty are an interesting enough story for me. i'll be here.

my custom sab 1s are my favorite basketball shoes i've ever owned. need to stop playing and get the 2s.

Nice. Hopefully we can get more folks here to watch with us, it really is fun basketball and Sabrina and Tasha have been my dream backcourt for years, so I'm trying to enjoy this while it lasts.

I tried getting the Sabrina 2s and they never have my size in stock :-?

^Great place for highlights, memes, and quality fan takes. The Liberty has one of the best fanbases in basketball. And our mascot is GOATed.

Here's the highlight package of our 17 point comeback versus Atlanta last night



Note that the comeback starts with our leader, Stewie, getting the ball down low. KAT, take notes!!

I'll post random clips from previous games too. Like for example, here is Natasha Cloud eye faking Angel Reese right out of the frame.



Not gonna lie, I got emotional when we traded for Cloud 9. She's one of my favorite players so I couldn't believe it.

i'll commit to staying consistent here with you.

those sab 2s are hard af but. but i think i still like the 1s better. might just be sentimental.

i screamed when we got tash. and she has been everything we've needed. she is pretty much an improvement on everything we hoped sloot would give us. (and she did. no shade. glad she's back home in chicago with allie after our chip. so much deserved winning.)

tash still clearly has plenty in the tank. dog of dogs. Philly tough in that dawn staley mold.

i was scared the liberty would always be that team to get close and never get it. that title was so satisfying after watching since lobo days.

Haven't followed WNBA much but I may start now

Will the Liberty have the cap room to offer Caitlin Clark the biggest contract in WNBA history when she becomes a free agent in a few years? Also, if Caitln Clark plays for the Liberty, they should go back to having their home games in MSG

We play at Barclays and I kid you not, the crowds are bigger and more rowdy than any Nets game I've attended.

Regarding Clark, I don't see it unless she falls out of love with Indiana.

This summer damn near every player aside from Clark, Reese, Paige etc are free agents as the new CBA kicks in. There is no telling what will happen when the smoke clears.
