You simply have to lower your standard of professional basketball when you watch the WNBA in order to appreciate it. You already know there won't be high light dunks and not much fancy passes or shot-making (although several of the ladies on both teams are capable of that). You also have to realize that the game won't come anywhere close to the speed of the NBA and that there will be a lot of jump-shooting. But, the WNBA can definitely entertain if you take it for what it is, a very high level of female basketball. It should be a pretty fun series. These two teams really are two of the top teams in the league. And, Becky Hammon and Deanna Nolan are both worth the price of admission. They are two of the more talented players in the league. You might even be surprised at how good the basketball is capable of being. Bill Laimbeer is also pretty entertaining.

I've really given the WNBA a chance, forced myself to watch games, and tried to follow a season.....but it's excruciating. It's so slow and boring. Take your typical 1999 Heat-Knicks game (where the final score is 73-67 and the only suspense is wondering which leg Van Gundy was going to grab onto during the 3rd quarter fight) and put it on slow motion, and you've got a slight idea at how boring the WNBA is. I think I've said it before, but there are pickup games at my local rec center more entertaining than any WNBA game.

The other day whomever was in charge of the filter missed Laimbeer saying a couple of times.

Go Silver Stars...

[BlackSwordsMan]

San antonio is in the finals!!

It has grown on me. I do not support or follow it as closely as NBA, but I would gladly go to games live, especially in the playoffs. You will enjoy it, just think of them as part of the Spurs family and you will find yourself surprisingly into the game!

[Slydragon]

I'm going to say expect allot of lesbians there and not the hot ones but bull-dikes. All the tickets my friend has sold for the finals have been to them and not one straight person.

[Reggie Miller]

The Houston teams from the first few years of the league were actually pretty damn entertaining. Good ball movement, great athleticism (for the women's game), and high basketball I.Q.s.

[T Park]

Go Starz.

[angel_luv]

Go Silver Stars!

[jman3000]

[I. Hustle]

Go Sprus GO!

What the , Mono? I thought you were better than that.

[koriwhat]

so the highlight of the night.... a handful of spurs players and some training camp fodder take their seats. yep that was the highlight for me atleast.

the game itself was a little better all around then i remember it to be back when i caught a game or 2 many yrs ago. with all that said though, the game wasn't much better. so many damn clumsy passes, shots, women falling all over the place, scrapping around, poor choice of shot selection, and much more.

lambierr cracked me up with that tech though. well to conclude, for $5 atleast it was semi entertaining. atleast the stars made it somewhat of a game towards the end when they came within 2 pts.

[Anti.Hero]

The ending was nothing like the last 2 games I have watched.

I was pretty disappointed but I just tuned into the last 4 minutes like the last two games.

[turiaf for president]

lol so u went to the track meet to watch horses run up and down the court?

[duncan228]

The Spurs were there showing their support. So was Robinson.

[koriwhat]

those aren't the same spurs i saw earlier tonight at the game.

[DPG21920]

Who is that next to chip?

[Sissiborgo]

I think Spurs will take it this year they got the team

[Obstructed_View]

The biggest problem I have with the WNBA is most of the team play is really lousy. Many of the top college teams are better just because the talent level is similar and the coaching level is far better. Watching a team jack up low percentage shots isn't my idea of entertaining. It's the same reason I didn't like watching the Celtics when they isolated Paul Pierce on every play.

[TDMVPDPOY]

the look on duncans face in the first pic, WHY SO SERIOUS?

Who is that next to chip?

Does Desmon Farmer have hair now?
