Atlanta v Chicago

[RadyLady]

42 - 24 Atlanta.

yup. ok...what's for dinner?

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago looks tired, and Atlanta is firing on all cylinders with Shoni racking up the assists, making good decisions.

 

[RadyLady]

DeSouza is just dominating the paint, and the guards are finding her

 

[RadyLady]

Tiff Hayes on the floor....so what's new with you?

 

[RadyLady]

ANd Angel just gets t'ed up, young fouled her and swiped her face as the play ended. It would tick me off, too, but ya gotta keep your cool

 

[RadyLady]

34-47, Chicago chipping away

 

[RadyLady]

Jasmine Thomas having a great game - any Dukies out there?

 

[RadyLady]

Elena has 15 to date, and with that last 3, cut the lead to 11

 

[RadyLady]

At the end of the half it's 54-41, Tiff adding two at the stripe.

 

[RadyLady]

Tiff taking a hard charge, Epip has 4 fouls.....62-45 game.

 

[RadyLady]

14 points 10 rebounds for Sancho
Epip having a poor shooting night.

 

[RadyLady]

Beautiful long lob Shoni to Tiff Hayes, from the outside to the paint catch and shoot while still in the air for 2 - awesome!

 

[RadyLady]

Sky can't shoot this quarter and now with some players in some foul trouble
All of the Dream starters in double figures

Elena shooting free throws, and they are saying that Elena has said that she does feel well enough to go to the USA trials. OK then!


At the end of the quarter. 51 - 67 Atlanta

 

[RadyLady]

ALL - BY - MYYYYYYYYSELF.....I'm GONNA POST....ALL BY MY-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-SELF.....



And BTW - Swin Cash is doing a great job on color tonight I must say. I am impressed with both her and her partner whoever he is.


72 - 55 Atlanta....make that 72 - 57

 

[rvwsleep]

Just wanted to break the streak.

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago making a run - Elena went strong to the basket for an an' 1 gotta stop, and Vandersloot to the hoop for 2...10 point differential.

OK, who's posting on my turf?

 

[RadyLady]

Just wanted to break the streak.

LOL - go back to sleep, rip!

 

[RadyLady]

Angel now with 4 fouls.....Chicago looking to cut the lead to single digits....and Atlanta now playing a little sloppy...gotta slow down. Using patience, lob from Thomas to DeSouza for 2, lead back up to 12, short lived, Elena attacking the basket gets another an' 1
Made the shot, Chicago is now under 10 65-74 Atlanta


we got 5 minutes left in the game, ladies and gentleman..and the rest of youse guys....(just kidding)
Elena shooting for two
Now has 25 points and the lead is now 8 points
A steal, and Epip finally scores and makes it a 5 point lead - 74 - 69

OK, it's not boring anymore.

 

[RadyLady]

If they put Shoni back in, it will be a test for her...will she be patient, or will she try to hard and make dumb mistakes..... hmmm...let's see...nope, not in. 4:27 to go

For Atlanta, everything that was going in for the first three quarters is not going in now. DeSouza misses both free throws...oye vey!

Angel now with 5 fouls....Elena shooting two. Might as well just give it to her.

Elena cuts it to three. She has 27 points. 4 minutes to go

 

[RadyLady]

Elena on a long 3 ties it up, she has 30.
2:44 to go
Atlanta up by 2 now, 2:31 left

Angel with a steal from EDD for 2, now up by 4. Dangerous play, Angel has 5 fouls, and it looked like she mowed someone over.....crazy.

Almost like my neighborhood earlier today. damn dangerous out there

 

[RadyLady]

Score is now 78 - 76 Atlanta with Fowles shooting free throws, 53.5 seconds to go...Shoni is in.

Fowles makes only 1

SHoni...honest to God...she has been great all game but had not scored UNTIL....did a little Shoni- Shake and lost her defense and scored two. She's out, Thomas back in.
29.5 to go, Atlanta up by 3.

Elena makes the bucket, Atlanta has to foul, Thomas shooting 2....no pressure...misses the first. damn

17.3 left to go.

missed them both. 20 second time out.

 

[RadyLady]

Elena hits 2, Chicago has a one point lead, 8.2 seconds to go.


THIS is a playoff game

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago wins. WOW.....that last shot of Angel could not have been choreographed better for suspense, it bounced every which way before deciding..."no, not today". damn.
80-81

Elena 34 - 4 rebounds, 1 steal, 3 blocks.

Tiff had 14 points, and 5 rebounds.

Shoni didn't have a great shooting night, but 5 rebounds and 6 assists.
