    Basically, A'ja Wilson strapped the team to her back and carried them.

    Going into the season, computer simulation estimated Valkyries team of castoffs would win 8 games. They won 23. Object lesson for everyone who freaks over preseason predictions for Blazers.

    But we will lose a bunch of preseason games AND regular season games. So freaking out is about right.

    Doesn't make sense to freak out now. We have no idea what the plan is moving forward.

    I guess I need to watch ESPN more. I just don't have it on much.

    The arena turned black. No way to tell if the shot went in or not definitively.

    The guy running with the flag must have seen something because he sure was happy with what happened.

    It looked like clock hit 0.0 before shot.

    As much as I love Stewie and Sabrina, it's fitting that the Mercury advanced. Along with Wilson and Collier, Thomas has been one of the league's best all season, and it's good for her to join the other 2 in the semi finals.

    Been rooting for the Mercury because of my guy and former Blazers assistant Coach Tibbs is their head coach! Let’s Go!
