Dunno, I'm encouraged that Phee is #2 thought I'd see the whole Fever team or some bs. Hull probably won't make it because it's by percentage right?


Fever one game over .500 and they really gonna get damn near their lineup in? :mjlol:


Mitchell and Hull anywhere near the Top 10 :laff:

:mjlol:2 GAME SATURDAY
BUT 5 GAMES SUNDAY...

2 OF WHICH WILL BE
GOING HEAD TO HEAD WITH GAME 7

:devil:
:evil:

I'm not even mad at the early games and I almost can't even be mad that they set up Sunday this way. I don't think anyone assumed we woulda had a 7 game series in the Finals. The easy thing woulda been to just move those Sunday night games to Monday when there's no games at all even though the 2 night games are local and those games are not interfering with the Finals. If you're watching Sun vs. Valkyries on a Sunday, then you were never watching Game 7 of the NBA Finals.


When the Cleveland and Toronto teams come in, they gotta set up a system where there's at least 1 game every night. The scheduling is still wonky.

Sykes sold from the line. Dope game.

Again. ATL adds some pieces to the bench at the deadline they are gonna be a tough out.

My girl and I wanted to take our daughter to her first WNBA game. I lucked up and found some floor seats for retail. Austin kept bringing them back every time Rhyne, Big Lisha, and Brittney were on the bench.

I thought it was over when big Lisha got hurt, but when she came back she hit some big shots to keep us afloat. shyt went down to the wire. I don’t know why the fukk ol’ girl hit that last free throw lol. I thought for sure they were going to try for the rebound.

Anybody single, and you looking for random athletic hoes with nice bodies, GO TO A WNBA GAME! The crowd was a healthy mix of people, but there were some real deal badies in there with all their friends. Cheeks and cleavage out, and all that shyt. i wish we had somebody like Shakira Austin at the 4, next to Brittney. we’d be unstoppable!

I don't know about all that, but there was a time where people who loved women's basketball weren't overlapping with NBA fans. Normally NBA fans go from the Finals to the draft to free agency talk to summer league to disconnecting til training camp unless the Olympics or World Cup was on. WNBA were only competing against other counter programmers. The two didn't really mix til recently and Cathy's slow to adjust to that. Cathy still looks at it like it's no different than the Mets and Phillies being on at the same time as Game 7.


I can remember a time not too long ago where the Superbowl would be on and the only idiots who would dare schedule anything against them were women's college basketball games. the Big 10 would play early. The AAC would play at 4 and be done right before kickoff. I remember one time there was a women's college game on ESPNU that started airing right around SB kickoff. I flipped there at some point, shyt looked like the bubble. I'm hoping their new TV deal will be more accommodating to avoiding overlap with NBA games if they can help it, but Cathy just has to understand that women's basketball might become a reasonable option for hoops heads in general and not just die hards and people who wanna watch something other than baseball and golf.

This is what I've been saying. The acceleration of the talent in this league the next 5 years is gonna give an outlet to die hard hoop fans for the summer that they've ignored.

Cathy is not built for this. She's built for getting the check from the NBA and mainting the status quo and good vibes of the past when no one was watching.

Meanwhile, you just had a damn expansion team in a hostile environment lockup the face of the league coming off a heater and they're not building narratives off of it for promotion.

They gotta get more Guerilla with their marketing and not just depend on Fever games to draw ratings because you don't know how long Clark can keep this going.
