It's much more fun than the other game where tempers are not flying around.

Two of least favorite commentators, but mostly not as bad as Peck. At least Brunson pretty much calls the game.

Turner has really struggled to hang on to the ball on pick and roll plays this season.

You know, this is sports we're talking about here: you don't have to defend why you don't like somebody. But, if you're gonna defend why you don't like somebody, and rationalize it behind some series of historical event(s), it's common courtesy to disclose the pertinent information. Hinting that you have access to insider information that provides the necessary context, but you're either unable or unwilling to share that information is not the move. Like, what is even the point of telling us that you know something, but you won't tell us what it is? For whose benefit are you letting us know that you have a secret? It would have been better if you had just said, "Cause fuck her, that's why!", and left it at that.

I like how all Wings players and even VJ to some extent went to hold Mabrey back after DeShields tossed her.

You mean after Mabrey flung herself to the floor


yeah, I'm 'neutral' as far as fandom on this one goes, but that's what I thought too. And was astonished that the refs rewarded it.


Hey, sh*t happens

A Taurasi drive and layup is *chefs kiss*

Reminds me of how mf good of a player she was in her prime. Best shooter in the game, even better at getting to the rim.

The #HateHard is absolutely respected... it's just that some of us would like to join you.

Indeed. I'm always down for some good recreational hatin', but I'm not hating on someone just 'cause someone's like, "It's bad, trust me."

hard to fault Diamond, who's had a fabulous game....but sometimes, like just sometimes it would be nice if she passed the ball instead of ALWAYS taking it one on one (or more).

I think for me the solution is just shot selection. She actually makes outstanding passes and I wouldn’t consider her to be a ball hog. I could just do without the well contested 18 footers.

Agreed. Every time she's driven towards the basket it's resulted in good things. But every time she's taken a jump shot (contested or even just wide open...), the defense wins. Same with Charles tonight honestly.

Are you kidding me defense?!

Holy s*** that was as bad of a defensive breakdown you could have at the worst possible time. That’s game right there.

Hard to 'like' Mabrey, but she is a really good player, and fun to watch.
