So, there we have it. When all's said and done, the All-Star game was an exciting match-up between the best of the best that the league has to offer in a game marked by stellar defense and skilled coaching.
Cheryl Ford (16 points, 13 rebounds) and Katie Douglas (18 points) led the East in scoring, with Tina Thompson scoring 19 for the East. Thank God Kara Braxton was in for the East, as she scored a whopping two baskets (out of seven) in twelve minutes of playtime. I could keep going in this vein, going in depth about the games supposed importance and death-defying thrill...
If you want more information on the game, like how the East shot over 82% from the line but the West shot 47%, or how despite being two thousand empty seats it was declared a sell-out, or Donna Orender's opinion of the game (a hint: fantastic), go to WNBA.com.
For the Liberty, not much news. While everybody else in the league was in Washington for the weekend...
Beyond that, not much. Keep the heads up, everyone! Things will get better once the Libs are back on the court and shoving the ball down the throat of the opposition.
AROUND THE LEAGUE...
No games today. Wait until tomorrow for my expert analysis of all things WNBA.
ESPN signed a contract with the league over the weekend that gives them exclusive national broadcasting rights for the next eight seasons. Financial terms were not disclosed, although for the first time, rights fees will go to the WNBA itself and NOT the NBA. This is good news for several reasons. One, it essentially guarentees...
That's it for now. Liberty Belle up in the afternoon. Until then?
See ya, Space Cowboy...
