It sucks but I try to take comfort in the fact that it took real greatness to beat my squad.

It's so hard to assess because, going into this series, the Phoenix Mercury looked like the most dominant team in the playoffs and the Aces were just barely holding on.

And yet, here we are.

Much respect to you. If she was doing this against my team, I'd be in a permanent state of denial.

I want to argue because it's Jordan but... 🤷🏾‍♀️

Please keep Satou Sabally in your thoughts and prayers. #wnba

Everytime they make Jackie do the post game interview, it feels like a punishment. #introvert #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 14h

Everybody ain't for everybody, I get that.

I'm certainly not everyone's cup of tea.

But if you can't appreciate what we're seeing from A'ja Wilson, you don't love the game like me.

The Aces survive and take game three. One win away! #wnba

I said what I said.

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 14h

I love Jackie but if they don't give that goddamn ball to A'ja, I swear to God. #wnba

Big defensive stand by Meg Gustafson on that last Phoenix possession. They went right at her. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 14h

Tie game! #wnba

I'm all for DB being the hero of the Mercury's story after the season she's had. #wnba

Kahleah. Fuckin. Copper. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 14h

This is hard to see so we're going to keep our cameras pointed directly at it.

Can't they go to commercial?

Really hoping Satou is okay. 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪 #wnba

What has Tibetts done in this game that's new? Feels like he needed to switch his defensive strategy for this game and it feels very much the same as the other two games. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 15h

Superteams in the #wnba have always taken at least a year to develop chemistry before winning a chip. Send like the Mercury are more evidence of that.

If you're going to complain enough about a call to draw a technical, challenge the call. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 16h

SATOU!!! 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪 #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 16h

Reminder: Jewell Loyd makes more money than A'ja Wilson, these types of performances should be expected. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 16h

Offense looks a little better for Phoenix but their defense certainly isn't up to the level that I expected coming into this series. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 16h

Glad to see the Mercury try to get Sabally going early. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 3d

The X Factor has been a difference maker for the Mercury this season. Gonna need to come up big for Game 3. #wnba

natthedem @natthedem.bsky.social · 3d

Most dominant Aces performance of these playoffs. Two down, two to go. #wnba
