While I would have liked Spartak to win the series, I now don't care as long as it's over in 3 games so the players can get to their WNBA teams.

I also thought someone said Zara was playing on Spartek but I don't see her name listed.

Zara is on the team, but she hardly ever plays. Ever since Lauren got there Whitmore has only played in one playoff game, she might as well go back to Indiana to be in Training Camp..

Looks as though Spartak has evened the series at 1 game each. 74-53 was today's score with Thompson and Jackson leading the way.

That's the Russian translation, but not in the Russian alphabet. I am assuming you find her middle name "Bridgett" as the funny one??

We been laughing about that for three years now.

Don't assume because I didn't know her middle name was Bridgett, why would you say that? I just thought it was odd at the spelling of her name...Please don't put a spin on what I said Very Happy

Good to see LJ playing solidly - I wonder if this means she may turn up somewhat in shape.

I was going to comment on our Russian Princess Mr. Green
Nice to see her put up that double/double (18 pts 10 rbs) after going 6-17 in game 1 Laughing

Now go Spartak, close this thing out Monday & W ballers get your fannies back to the States un-injuried.
