Message: [QUOTE="JellyBean, post: 5317750, member: 1997"] What a great night for basketball with some surprising results! New York losing to Connecticut! Wow. That was New York's 3rd straight loss. Sure the Liberty was shorthanded but that is no excuse because had they won, we would have heard about how they were shorthanded but still won. Hats off to Connecticut, especially Marina Mabrey and our own Olivia Nelson-Odoa. ONO probably had one of her best games so far this season. Well done, ONO! Seattle/Los Angeles! Now that was the GAME!! I know the media likes to focus on some of these younger players but these vets like Dearica Hamby, Azura Stevens, Kelsey Plum, Nneka Ogwumike, Skylar Diggins, Erica Wheeler, and Gabby Williams, are the heart of the WNBA! To see players like Plum and Ogwumike playing the full game. You gotta give them their flowers. Hats off to the vets of the League. For me, my favorite game to watch was the Golden State/Chicago , matchup. I have always been a fan of Veronica Burton (Big Ten). She is a just a joy to watch. Grit and Grind game. She does not get the respects she deserves. I am quickly becoming a fan of Janelle Salaun as well!! She is another member of this talented rookie class that is playing well. Golden State, even though they were playing shorthanded, continue to play well and win. That is a testament to the coach and the players. Hard work beats talent when talent does not work hard. Golden State is one of the hardest working teams out there. They are just relentless! I love watching that team play. [/QUOTE]
