These kids did a better job than the last ones. I think the last teacher tried to add a few too many flourishes to the anthem.

Doppler making himself useful for a change.

I once had a dog that rubbed his butt on the floor like this. I think Doppler needs to go to the vet.

Ouch, JB gets an accidental elbow to the face.

So the Sky are standing until they score. And standing. And standing...
|

|

13.jpg
...oh the hell with it.
|

14.jpg
Yes, much more comfortable.
|

Hmmm, this doesn't look like good defense. And what are those snazzy shoes Jia Perkins is wearing?

Discussing a foul Cisti may or may not have committed.

And this is Sue committing a foul?
|

28.jpg
Yep, doesn't make sense.

Nikki putting a spin move on Sue...
|

32.jpg
...Sue has to pull back to avoid a foul...
|

33.jpg
...and there's a disadvantage when you have to keep your feet planted.
|

LJ's 3000th point!
|

36.jpg
Hey, the Sky can pull off these baseball lob passes. Why can't we?
|

37.jpg
Well, they can't do anything with them yet, but still.
|

"Michael, I'm whispering so the players won't hear that you don't know what you're doing." Michael did overturn his call.

Overall, Dave Cowens seemed very laid back.

It's that "London Bridge" double teaming again...
|

47.jpg
...but JB busts right through it.

Stacey looks like she just got in trouble with her boss.
|

51.jpg
Typical Betty drive...
|

52.jpg
...where she pulls back to the surprise of the defender.
|

53.jpg
|

54.jpg
OK, that shot didn't go but she got her rebound...
|

55.jpg
...but has to take this difficult hooky shot.
|

56.jpg
Flopping 101. At this point it could actually be a foul. Stacey is more or less set. Note how flopping makes it look phony...
|

57.jpg
OK, now kick that other foot out and roll back on the foot that has your weight on it...
|

58.jpg
Yeah, yeah, it looked very impressive, Stacey.
|

59.jpg
Tell your friends at ESPN.

OK, Dave looks red faced and angry but he really wasn't. He was explaining things in a very quiet methodical voice.
|

Dupree tries to knock the ball back in bounds (are you supposed to do this under your own basket?)...
|

63.jpg
...unfortunately it slams right into Ngoyisa's schnoz! Ouch!

Yes, a long pass that didn't go out of bounds!
|

72.jpg
Fake left...
|

73.jpg
...turn to the right! Best LJ shot I've taken so far this season...
|

74.jpg
...and the foul.
|

75.jpg
|

76.jpg
|

77.jpg
Here's another case where Betty seems to be having trouble controlling the ball...
|

78.jpg
...she looks up to check where the basket is and loses control of the ball.
|

79.jpg
|

80.jpg
|

81.jpg
But at least she gets this shot, plus a foul.
|

Another long pass into the media desk.
|

85.jpg
|

86.jpg
Stacey, the game is right there. Why aren't you watching?
|

87.jpg
I've seen LJ make a no-look shot like this but Betty doesn't have the hang of it yet.
|

88.jpg
And what win would be complete without Izzy's new reverse layup?
|

89.jpg
|

90.jpg
Hmmm, maybe something was wrong with Stacey's neck. She never looked up.
