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.Β
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.Β

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.Β
