| 🌹My Favorite Teams Made the Finals! Unrivaled Basketball | 4 Relevance | 1 year ago | Faith Black | Zuri Art & Culture | |
| Rose and Vinyl.I'm still shocked. Vinyl beat the Lunar Owls, just wowwwwwwwwwww. Oddly for me I had the dates all mixed up. I could have sworn that the playoffs started March 18th. So I was getting ready to bake some chocolate chip cookies, listening to speeches from Angie Stone's 🌷homegoing services, and looking to see if there were any Unsung episodes on EnVogue. I had been really wanting to see some documentaries about them and was talking to my husband about it. So then I guess he noticed that I wasn't talking about Basketball, and being that he surprised me with a Vinyl t-shirt the other week, he said "You know the Vinyl plays tonight." I was like, "What!? That's got to be a replay or some type of exhibition I didn't know about. The games don't come back on until the 18th." So well I ended up coming in 3rd quarter where the Rose and Lace were head to head, Angel Reese was on the bench in street clothes and I figured it was her wrist. There was a new girl and then Chelsea was being Chelsea. Absolutely phenomenal. ------------ I was not even expecting a half way close game with Vinyl vs Lunar Owls. Vinyl had just gotten blown out by the Rose so I didn't know where they were going. I expected a huge blowout and also expected the Lunar Owl to blow out whoever else made it to the finals against them.I actually was sweeping because I'm like it would be ridiculous for me to expect anything different than a blow out. I saw how they were keeping the game close and I was like well that is very good and notable, but the Lunar Owls are gonna break loose and go crazy and rack up points everywhere nonstop Even when Vinyl outperformed them in the 4th and the game stayed extremely close I still thought the Lunar Owls would take off and dominate, even if for the last few seconds. I didn't think this was possible...When Vinyl was leading 71 to 70 and whoever gets to 73 first wins, I ran down the hallway and told my husband "Whoever scores next wins." (Assuming Lunar Owls hit a 3).Then when we won I told my husband "Biggggggggggg upset. This feels like an NFL upset to me." lol I use NFL as an example because along with college football that's the other sport where the whole world (country) is tuned in. So Wow!On to the Finals. I kept telling my husband thank you so much for telling me the games were on, I would have died had I missed my faves take down the Lunar Owls live. | |||||

| My 💓💓💓my heart was beating so dang on fast when it was Plum 8 and Chelsea 8, then 10. Cause all Kelsey Plum needed was a 3 to win and she almost had it. Chelsea was also down 8 to 0.When it got 8 to 8, Chelsea hit a 2 and then later another 2, so final was 12 to 8 I give Plum credit for her great defense, those girls be taking some hits. Alright, Allisha Gray vs Aliyah Boston, again, love em' both.I don't care who wins, I'm just glad the champion will be Black!Because I tell ya, this was close, between Plum and Paige it came very close to a yt being in the finals and ultimately winning. Since sports rarely go my way the past decade or so.... So alright, I can relax now, Happy Valentine's Day WOW they are hooping. Gray went up 8 to 0, then Aliyah went on a run and it's 10 Aliyah to 9 GrayCan they both just win?Allisha hits a logo 3 to win and her interview is why I started loving her, that girl has the cutest accent 💓I love how she talks lolI loved Aliyah Boston's smile at the end 🏀Alright Gray vs GrayI think Gray has all the momentum. Gray wins round 1, 7 to 0.Lol at myself for the "Gray" joke. I love Gray with all my heart, but I think I'm gonna root a little more for Gray since she had been having some tough challenges and frustrations with her performances-I think in the first round she was still mad and got a technical -Geez I can't imagine how tired they are. They are tired. And they are amazing.Wow, Chelsea is up 6 to 3. Allisha started off on fire We're headed to Game 3, the final one.Round 1 was AllishaRound 2 was ChelseaI'm rooting more for Allisha I'm bout to die OMG this is amazing.I'mma stand up I wish they both could winOMG Chelsea hits a 3 and wins.

I don't know why, I guess I'm just not trained or something, but that was a weird finish by Jackie Young and possibly should have been a double dribble or travel according to the commentators but they didn't say much. Courtney Williams, guest commentator was like "a W is a W." Well, I'm just thrilled that the officiating in my opinion is light years better than last season. I hope I'm right about that. I know Candace Parker mentioned the questionable calls after the first game. And questionable calls are to be expected sometimes but we can't have anything like last year and the WNBA, hell the NBA playoffs that I was watching. There also haven't been that many technical fouls, there have been no fights, and no one has been ejected! This is awesome and I think, a result of the better, more professional officiating. | |||||

| [Update August 1, 2026] Things have gotten a lot better. The Atlanta Dream are actually playing Basketball now.The rest of the games, also look like normal games and not this deadness and confusion going on in the beginning of the season, as well as good crowds and decent announcers.The refs are still insanely incompetent though. ***I just watched Las Vegas Aces vs Chicago Sky; and while I hate the Sky organization, don't like that coach etc, I like the players (except those who didn't speak up for Angel Reese) but many of these players are new to the team so they have nothing to do with that.So I was neutral at first but as time went on I saw how much heart and grit Chicago were playing with, and it was just as overall amazing high quality Basketball; and they kept talking about Sydney Taylor being undrafted and making amazing moves, and all this, just so interesting. So I started rooting for her and Chicago.With 3 seconds left, Chicago Sky was down by 2. I didn't think the Sky had a chance to make a 3 pointer with this amount of time especially since Vegas is the stronger team...But Sydney Taylor made the 3 🏀🏀🏀Won the game at the buzzer!! Wow. I thoroughly enjoyed that and I'm so glad I got to witness it; and I cherish it. | |||||

| Alright, so the fun has went away so much and I hate that. My sis and I were enjoying the positive vibes and hearing about everyone getting along, having watch parties with no drama, and just genuinely got damn, something nice.Then some hoe ass fans comes and mess things up. I know that 90 something percent were not violent, but it has still ruined the entire energy of everything for me.I was very triggered over the Wemby thing. It's one thing when fans (who are equal status, regular citizens) are into it, but a player should be protected and it just has an extremely disturbing effect on me when I see Black people with the highest status possible still not being protected. So I made sure to not watch the video. But my mood and excitement crashed once I heard about that, no reason why that person should not have been arrested! 😡😡 Alright. gonna move forward... I have never seen the nation this tuned in to Basketball unless it was during the Jordan era.Usually it's football. I did enjoy chatting with Moonflower and catching her up on a few sports facts since she said she has no clue about the sports stuff so I mentioned a few things, such as: -------Football is "god" in this country and our home state of Alabama. Then the whole Alabama Roll Tide and Auburn Tigers (where her auntie went, so thus, we're Auburn fans) Except her dad, as she knows....UAB! And that she has to hate Alabama Crimson Tide because she's in this family. I'm glad we don't live in a city with a national sports team because as I was reading comments from Spurs fans, Knicks fans, Cleveland fans, Atlanta fans etc throughout the playoffs....woooh, the pain pain pain. They be mentioning how they're still traumatized from years and decades ago when their teams lost in devastating ways.Okay, I have to say I am glad I can't relate to that pain except like with Serena Williams to break that record! And of course you don't have to live directly in a city to be a huge sports fan, but for the people with a personal connection to the cities they are definitely on another level of fandom than what I am for any cities or colleges. However, if we're talking my fandom for individual athletes like Venus, Serena, Coco, Simone...yeah, that's where I will be climbing on a roof myself lol.------- Looking at NBA Tip Off with Ernie, Shaq, Kenny and Charles, I really enjoyed the segment where they had this man on there, a legend, George "Iceman" Gervin. He played in the 70's. I don't recall knowing about him, but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him, and funny how Kenny mentioned how every kid who serious about Basketball had to have that Iceman poster. Cool! ------ Alright let's get this over with I guess.Game 5, in San Antonio.Knicks lead 3 to 1. | |||||

| I'm only posting this because it was one of the weirdest, frustrating, loopy games from both sides. Just horrible, so many missed shots and turnovers.I thought it would be another hot date of WNBA: Indiana Infection vs Minnesota Lynx I turned it off, I was so frustrated with the Aces, fixed something to eat and next thing I saw they came back from being down 20 thanks to Jackie Young but the shooting remained horrendous. A'ja was missing everything. The Aces could have easily pulled away, but they didn't. I just followed the thread on reddit since it stays Basketball, no race hate allowed-I appreciate that from the mods: (Safe enough space for me) Play by Play Match thread And once I read about Chelsea's clutch heroic shots, a 3 to send the game to overtime and a 3 to win it? Wow. I went back and watched those miracle shots ✨✨✨ 🏀🏀🏀 Next game was the LA Sparks vs Olivia Miles and the Minnesota Lynx, and I was like okay LA, keep the game close, I don't want to see a blowout.Well the Sparks ended up winning. You just never know. Thankfully Olivia Miles had a 23 point great game.And I'm happy for the Sparks, nice team! I really like all the WNBA players with a few exceptions; I didn't want a bloodbath game though And so I'd rather Olivia and 'nem lose to the Sparks (a safe team) than to Indiana. Again, I like the (most) of the players even for Indiana but there is much more going on at the seams Atlanta Dream, WNBA, Nightmares Dreamgirls, the WNBA and a Good Cry Sexy President Obama Guarding Jonquel Jones | |||||
