not fair

26pts at the half. that last baseline jumper? fucking insane

26 point half my god. but the aces aren't missing any chances either

the fadeaway over a'ja, right? dirk-esque.

storm came out CAWLD as hell for this second half

yeah, aces need to take advantage here

god this whole series is a prizefight

yeah, what a series

holy shit

CHELS

her end of game play has been so damn good

Chelsea Gray has averaged 23.8 points on 76% true-shooting in these playoffs

NO professional basketball player, NBA OR WNBA, has EVER scored that well in ANY postseasonhttps://t.co/4viDj3ZsyZ

A’ja gets the mvp

well earned

chicago crowd seems a little too chill for a win-or-go home game

nm candace parker got em back in it

just got home. looks like this could be a good one

sky are starting to cook

i dont see how the sun can get enough offense rolling to come back

yeah, sky matching sun on defense.

getting spicy

we love 2 see it

huh, common foul.

sun aren’t dead yet

huh, common foul.

sun aren’t dead yet

wow, what a turnaround. that pass was quite a throw

well well well if it isnt me being wrong af

i think itll be chalk in the first round, but based on nothing other than the anecdotal evidence of watching a couple of their games, i like the way connecticut did things and i think theyll get to the finals past chicago. aces ftw.

well well well if isnt me actually being right af

yeah, the bonner copper skirmish killed the sky’s flow

haha! the oracle nailed it

they have great size! bonner is all arms and she's like the sf???

i wanna get bold and predict an aces sweep tbh

yeah, their d certainly outmuscled the sky and had them shook. sloot’s pass off the backboard was desperation. my wife gasped when it happened

also: do it! call the sweep

aces in 3

game 1 on abc rn!!!

sold out crowd in vegas, energy is all the way up already

aces looking good af

grey!
nice start.
i’m under my kitchen sink doing plumbing, but I could hear the crowd was amped.
sounded like an english premier league crowd

i want becky to fine plum $100 for every pullup 3 in the first half of the shot clock she takes

sun's size advantage is a problem rn for vegas

tons of offensive boards, trouble getting their offense cooking in the 2nd bc the lanes are treacherous, etc
