Ah well... Dallas didn't score in the second half of the 4th Q. Aces 11-0 run to close out the series.

That was difficult to watch. Aces played solid zone, but Wings had so many chances off good sets and at the free throw line.

The Liberty faced two good defensive teams to get to the finals. We're ready

My daughter is barracking for the Aces in any game Cayla George gets on the court, and the Liberty in any game she doesn't.

Not a bad strategy, if a little unique.

Makes her 1-0

Oof...I was hoping (and thought it would be) a competitive series, even if I saw a potential Aces sweep. Game 2 wasn't great though.

My daughter moves to 2-0, with Cayla George playing 4 mins in Game 2...lol
