She tied it late and made a bunch of defensive plays.

When Williams is dribbling the air out of the ball for most of the shot clock, taking bad shots, and not moving the ball you can't really blame Phee.

Williams lowkey shot them out of the game. Took the ball out of McBride's hands in the second half when she was cooking the first half and ended up getting cooled off because of it

Phee suppose to go get the ball, the same thing with Aja last series. They lost so everyone is at blame, sure Courtney Williams played bad and selfish, but Phee and Coach Reeves got to make sure she got some shots up. In the 4th quarter she attempted what 3 shots, that can't happen during the finals.

At the same time, Phee was missing a lot underneath and around the rim, or forcing up awful shyt that would get packed.

Shooting less than 50% when 80% of her shot diet is inside 15 feet? Yikes. 🤢

That's 100% on the coach. You gotta rein her in or sit her down for a minute. They had no flow on offense with her going rogue. Her play was was constantly resulting in bad possessions.

There were multiple times where Phee was calling for the ball and didn't get it.

Nice win by the Liberty.....However, if we're being honest the injury to Smith was a big factor....She wasn't the same after getting hurt...Her defense on Jones fell off.......Smith was+20 in only 20 minutes.........Stewart carried NY until the other stars stepped up.....Sabrina hit a couple of historical shots after the poor start, kudos to her.

Minny could easily be up 2-1 right now......That being said, I am rooting for NY to win......Hopefully they can finish Minny off in game 4

NY could've have won the series tonight if they didn't choke away Game 1, so :manny:


But yes, I hope the Liberty win Game 4 and finally get a title.

She not better than A'Ja like some of yall said. I don't see it.
not better but unanimous was a joke imo. phee held her own all year.

If the Liberty didn't collapse in Game 1, that Sabrina shot would've been the championship winner.
crazy to think about, i try not too smh.

eh, Laney is clearly nowhere close to 100%, just got to play the hand you're dealt

Laney was healthy last season and NY still didn't win despite Vegas being shorthanded in game 4.....The fact of the matter is...On paper, NY has more talent.....but that talent is not actualized because some of the talent overlaps and there aren't enough balls to go around. Laney being healthy does not guarantee the Liberty victory ........Minnesota on the other hand needs Smith because they do not have great depth.
