There is a clip of AT, in *this* series, shaking her head while Tibblets is drawing up a play in a timeout.

Across all the major American sports, salaries cover the regular season only because there is no guarantee that a team will make the postseason or win a title.
Look up playoff per game pay for NFL players.

um.......yes of course.
Hyperbole, and things of that nature.

Brother you be bringing the solid data, but based on that end of quarter interview Holly just did with A'ja, she about to give Phoenix The Work Package for the next 20 minutes.

OK Aj'a, get on the block and hand out The Work Packages.

streakedyliniment.bsky.social @streakedyliniment.bsky.social · 4h

No, yeah, Becky is giving Tibblets The Coaching Work Package but I think she's letting Chelsea just go out there and call plays on her own at the moment.

I dont think he (or AT) trusts them.

I think Becky just might be letting Chelsea just call what she sees on the floor in real time right now.....I think.

Im told the Phoenix Women's Professional Head Basketball Coach has daughters so that counts for money?

streakedyliniment.bsky.social @streakedyliniment.bsky.social · 4h

if we look closely, Aces are changing things just a bit every few plays on O and D. PHX isnt adjusting in real time....

Yes. I'd CLOSE DOWN the paint knowing AT (who I love except right now) cant really do mid-range jumpers.
Then see if Kah and Satou can beat us

streakedyliniment.bsky.social @streakedyliniment.bsky.social · 4h

Becky is OK with this as long as its not Kah, betting that Satou will cool off or A'ja gives her The Work Package for foul trouble in QTR 2

streakedyliniment.bsky.social @streakedyliniment.bsky.social · 4h

They are going to win if they want it
AT guarding ball is not sustainable look for Becky to exploit the heck out of it soon enough
NS keeping out of foul trouble (so far) will play to Vegas advantage later
look for a few Kiah minutes late to close down the paint

On a couple plays already they actually show box and 1 and then switch to man/stay or man/switch

all kinds of vultures circling now that the money is interested

heads, they win, tails you lose.
If The W centers CC, then look for this group to try and recruit away others.
If The W chooses the entire league w/CC a *part* of it, look for this group to try and center CC.
I think anyway....

Adidas Candace is not Basketball Candace.

I don't know how to convey how terrible this is, for reasons outside of basketball too.

There are a couple of women currently coaching in the (M)NBA and/or in front offices who also have the knowledge
Becky has said that (M)NBA coaches watch W games & steal their schemes & plays
So this notion that men from the NBA are better is poppycock
We have seen this movie before.

I would be surprised if they do get any better.
There has been a concerted effort to center these two in all W mainstream coverage and culture

This is absolutely wild. All 10 starters in the #WNBA Finals are Black women. And you use this photo of 1. A white woman who hasn't played since the All-Star break and 2. A white woman eliminated in the first round. 3. With neither team in the Finals.

Be better, @usatodaysports.usatoday.com #WNBA
