Yes, I have plenty of gratuitous pictures of Kristen O'Neill.

My thanks go to whoever decided to put spotlights on the visiting team. They make my shots look much better.

Well, sometimes the spotlight is a little too high for some players.

Start the game off with a really good screen to show the defense that you mean business.

This seemed like a foul to me but then Roy was officiating and that always makes it a different game.
|

23.jpg
|

24.jpg
Oh, yeah, this was when we got our first three or four offensive rebounds because the Liberty were busy double teaming instead of boxing out.

The no-look reverse layup amazed me a few years ago, and now it seems like LJ does it in every game.
|

32.jpg
|

33.jpg
I'm guessing Yo thought she was being fouled...
|

34.jpg
...because she threw up the ugliest shot I've ever seen.
|

A bunch of Liberty fans?

Here's something that doesn't happen very often...
|

46.jpg
...LJ getting the ball stripped...
|

47.jpg
...oh, and Yo got clocked in the face but that happens all the time.

Sue draws the foul...

...and makes the shot.

The Liberty seemed to have some ideas on how to win the game during halftime.

"Why did I step out of bounds?"
|

66.jpg
|

67.jpg
Essence and Tanisha get about the same height...
|

68.jpg
...but Tanisha is a prisoner of her momentum.
|

I'm gonna keep saying this: I hate the sweep! This should be an offensive foul, right?
|

72.jpg
|

73.jpg
Ha, try to score with that ball now...
|

74.jpg
...and Essence does by adjusting it as she goes up for the layup!
|

75.jpg
|

76.jpg
|

77.jpg
I think this was an offensive foul. Yo's right foot was planted before the foul...
|

78.jpg
...unfortunately her bad knee gets tangled up...
|

79.jpg
...but fortunately she breaks her fall with her, uh, injured hand.
|

80.jpg
This is my ball, new girl!
|

81.jpg
|

82.jpg
This shot was not a good idea...
|

83.jpg
...she knocks Swoopes to the floor and Yo, once again, gets clocked in the face.
|

84.jpg
What's the noise? It's Kristen O'Neill going into the game of course.
|

85.jpg
|

86.jpg
Remember when the Liberty knocked our inbound pass out of bounds about thirty times?

Oh dear, what happened here again? I think the first jumpball was knocked out of bounds and Roy (and Shameka) felt that meant they needed to rejump it.
|

92.jpg
|

93.jpg
Great block by Swoopes!
|

94.jpg
Sue gets a little too aggressive on defense...
|

95.jpg
...and that lets Shameka get past her for the shot.
