Message: [QUOTE="UConnCat, post: 2825972, member: 15"] Shea Serrano article on the GOAT. [URL="https://www.theringer.com/2018/8/29/17795652/diana-taurasi-phoenix-mercury-seattle-storm-wnba-conference-finals-game-2"]Even in Defeat, Diana Taurasi Is Magic[/URL] Nobody covering the WNBA (or any other league for that matter) writes like this. [I][URL='https://www.theringer.com/2018/8/22/17768178/phoenix-mercury-dallas-wings-wnba-first-round-dewanna-bonner-brittney-griner']DeWanna Bonner[/URL], inbounding the ball from the right sideline on the Mercury’s side of the court, lobbed it up to Brittney Griner, who had floated over toward the opposite corner. Griner plucked it out of the air, and before her feet even touched the ground she was already looking for Taurasi. Because she knew what everyone else on the court knew. And what everyone in the stands knew. And what everyone watching the game on TV knew. And what all of the birds and the bugs and the animals and the slugs and the plants and the dirt and the sun and the universe and the amoebas knew: that Taurasi was taking that shot.[/I] [I] The ball didn’t make a big noise or any sound at all, but watching the replays, if you open your heart enough, it sounded a lot in the air like how a jet sounds during a flyby. (My very favorite thing about watching the replay is Seattle’s Sue Bird. As soon as Griner gets the ball, Sue not only knows that it’s going to Taurasi, but also knows exactly where Taurasi wants to go to shoot it, which you can tell because Bird runs to meet Taurasi there before Taurasi even arrives, which is incredible.)
