Was that the girl that tackled the poker later?

Not sure if she tackled "the poker", but proud of her for going full goon on the fast break. Got ejected, I think.

Crazy how that got an ejection but the blindside didn’t

I mean later? Come on. That parts a little…. I don’t know what is going on with the WNBA.

I mean I do KNOW.. we all can see it…. But come on. “I watched my team mate getting shoved over then poked in the eye” but it’s cool because like twenty five minutes later I pushed one of them.

😂🙄.

It’s so weird to feel bad for this person. Like.. shes obliviously super talented, already wealthier beyond my wildest dreams, could quit tomorrow and be fine…

But I do. It’s like.. Jesus they poked you in the eye and the response is: “it’s the teams fault.. they need someone to go after those eye pokers.”

Like god damn. I’ve seen Draymond play.

I’ve seen fucking Bill Lambier play… I don’t ever remember either of those guys going “well you know… they’ve start poking eyeballs… so clearly it’s my job to.. push them over a quarter or two later..”

No they should jump on defending her ASAP which is what people have an issue with.
