Caitlin Clark won Rookie of the Year. No surprise.

For the people claiming Clark vs Reese is the next Johnson/Bird rivalry, the contrivance of it is actually easiest to describe in hockey terms, specifically using Crosby. Johnson/Bird is like Crosby/Ovechkin, a legendary player rivalry between 2 legendary all time greats. Clark/Reese is like Crosby/Toews, a contrived rivalry from the media between 2 players where one is clear cut better than the other.

Finally have an even series. Connecticut beat Minnesota in Game 1, the first road team to win a game, Minnesota wins Game 2.

Liberty can close out the Aces with a Game 3 win on Friday

Minnesota with a complete robbery of Game 1. They erased an 18-point deficit to get an OT win. That included hitting a 4-point play with 5 seconds left in regulation

Anyone watching The Finals? Laney-Hamilton just hit a sick fadeaway after a couple hard changes of direction to lose a bunch of defenders.

Series tied 1-1. I was going to check in more, but Liberty kinda had a big lead

Minny got it to within 2 in the last couple min before the Libs(lol) put it away with a closeout 7-0 run before I called it. Hope Wednesday keeps bringing it.

Also I want her shoes

I wish he had used a different word; "let it fly", "fire away", "shoot it"... plenty of good choices there. I mean, it's been a long time since I was in college but still, when I think of someone "heaving", shooting a basketball is not what comes to mind.

That said, it’s behind 15 other regular season games and the All-Star Game
