| Why hasn't Boyette played yet? Not watching the game so I don't know if it's an injury.

Tv announcers insinuated because of matchups. She went in when they went zone

Why has "scoring the ball" become such a normal thing to say?
Does just saying "scoring" somehow not make it sufficiently clear that the ball is involved? And if not, surely "scoring the ball through the basket in the downward direction during play and prior to the expiration of the shot clock" is what we should be saying if we really want to be as redundant as possible.

Glory nails her 3rd 3 pointer. That's a career high for scoring the ball through the basket in the downward direction during play and prior to the expiration of the shot clock with shots taken from outside the 3 point arc but within the dimensions of the court.
I think she's 0/1 for scoring the fist though. Looks like that one missed by a few inches.

well, my theory is when they have so many stoppages, they have to get more verbose to fill the air time.

I wish they would stop pointing the camera at the commentators.
How am I supposed to pretend it's Lisa Leslie and David Letterman when they keep showing me that it's not?

She is in a terrible shooting slump is all I can figure. Not like Ajavon on a good night is as good as Clarendon on a bad one.

Was that a guess? I'm showing 29.9 vs 22.1
This should be the most important determining factor.

ugh...it annoys me too.... i heard jay bilas say it once a couple of years ago, and now it seems they say it a lot on the men's side... I'm like what else are you going to score with, your shoe?

A guess because I am not sure what the values were for each of the elements. Also, I rounded and didn't count steals since both had one. I like yours better. (I didn't think to play this game tonight on FD.)

Praying dallas plays washington in the 1st rd.
And for Cooper's sake/sanity,he better hope atlanta doesn't get the #1 pick.Losing a lottery pick for Boyette was bad enough.Losing Wilson would be an epic embarrassment.........The only way Cooper saves face is if Boyette becomes a legit top 5 center,or if she plays a key role in atlanta winning a championship.Wilson not being as good as advertised would also soften the blow.

| Skylar Diggins told Reagan Pebley that she hopes she is playing with Alisha Gray until the day she retires.
