Thanks pilight! I was wondering. I know it's been a long week when it took me til now that she hadn't played haha. How dare I think the Twitter crew would announce it. It makes sense that the broadcast would be produced for League Pass and ruined for Twitter. I think we learned the last 4 years that Twitter ruins everything haha.
Poor Dream. Jonquel back and having a moment. Trying to mesh with new players and a new coach after your coach just left. Aari getting schooled early. It's been a tough night.

ANYONE GO TO THE GAME LAST NIGHT?
Was I the only one who thought it was overkill how bad the game ops were? And, have you ever heard of an "owner" being plugged more in one 2 hour siting than Renee? Her foundation, her podcasts, showing her on the video -
Did anyone go to the NYL game? Were there promotions/video and music about Joseph Tsi? When is it ever about the Dream? ALL last year was Kelly, now we have Renee 24/7. How about the team itself? Wow!
Also no sound, no stats, and a PA announcer that was terrible. Then of course, there was the game itself - holy moley!

The team has been in the lottery for the last 2 seasons and 4 of the last 6. The Coach just caught the first plane out of town, and two of the team's best players were not playing last night. Not a lot to talk about......Had to talk about something - or someone......

I went to the game. I completely agree with you, it was awful. We also could not hear the announcer and was surprised that they didn’t call any of the action on the floor, not even a “Jump ball”. It was uncomfortable to see Renee being featured dancing in a jam cam time-out. How about how they gave you a ticket for parking on the way in and then had everyone wait in the queue to pay the machine to get out.
Oh and the dream did not look good...
I did think the new arena was very nice.

They never should have fired Vince Bailey.

"Call the action on the floor"? You mean, like live play-by-play in the arena? Where they do that at?

Not play by play but things like “time-out Dream” or who made the basket. I thought they usually did that. We couldn’t hear the player introductions so that may have helped. Who is Vince Bailey and why was he fired?

Vince Bailey.
Vince was the PA announcer for the Atlanta Dream, for the first eleven years of their existence. I don't know why he was fired, but my guess is, they didn't want to pay him, anymore.

I knew that. It was a rhetorical question. I used to wonder why they never did kiss cam.
