Absolutely correct!

Good grief. This app has been filled for days with people condemning the Hawks/the Dream owners/the League for "forcing" the Dream to play in their small home arena, and now that a solution is worked out, someone comes along and condemns that. LOL. Social media never fails to deliver.

When were the dates even set? People seem to forget that there was a period last spring when it was far from obvious there would even be a WNBA season this year.

The Dream are scheduled to play in State Farm next year, so ownership has realized - but this year's success came earlier than those logistics. We don't know what all the contingencies and barriers are. Would love actual reporting on that, not everyone's speculating that it must be someone's fault.

The reporting on this has been so bad and misinforming. By design? To create the drama that isn't really there?

They needed Nalyssa Smith. Devastating loss. She will be back.

Making up for last year when the coach took the fall for the players' poor play?

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Or it's miscommunication and confusion because the NY bench doesn't know what's going on. Stewart is asking the refs DURING the free throws, when the ref is supposed to be watching the free throw. It's a chaotic mess. This is why the timeouts are tracked at the table, not on the floor.

Breanna should have asked Karl!

Funny, they won a championship with a qualified coach a couple years ago. What happened to her?

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
She might not be lying, but she might be wrong. Miscommunication is a thing. The coaching staff is supposed to be on top of that and communicate the game situation to the players. Why is she even asking the ref on the court? As the statement by WNBA said, that's tracked at the table, not on court.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
That already is the rule? The difficulty is determining intentional over just going for the ball. The players all know you have to "try" to steal the ball. They just aren't trying to do it without fouling.

The Aces miss Nalyssa Smith.

Neither would Brondello.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Is that the refs on the court job? (I don't know, but they aren't tracking those things themselves) It's definitely the coach's job. Those refs were horrible but I don't see how this is on them.

They believe the rest of the league is the Washington Generals to Caitlin's Globetrotters and as such Caitlin's team should win every game "for ratings". They lost. They are not in the playoffs anymore. If that drops ratings because some ppl only care about her then it is what it is. I don't care.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Even if she was correct I don't get the point. The Dallas Cowboys are and have been "America's Team" for decades. They ARE the most popular. That doesn't make them good though. The sport is still about the sporting. Popularity is a thing, but it is not THE thing. Popularity won't win the title.

Showed my wife. She told me to get busy. It really is a magnificent transformation.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I don't understand. Should the WNBA be making sure Indiana wins because they are more popular and will get more views? They had more national TV games than anyone. The league DOES promote the hell out of them. What more should they do?

How strong is she?! Damn.

Even Nakase had to think that was just a prayer. Got the challenge might as well use it. Then holy hell, it worked.

Good point. FIBA also has much better bench areas for the players. But no, we have to sell every possible inch.

I would rather raise the NBA rims - and widen the court.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
Well, that's an opinion I guess.

I watched an Indiana team last year overperform like crazy with a rotating contingent of replacement players. Those players played harder for White than this year's group. They played defense too! It might not be the coaching.

It's only qualifying. What's the over/under on how many laps it takes for Russell to see him in the mirrors? Hah.

As a Dream fan, I think it's the best move he ever made!

They've shut it down before. People who don't want to hear it don't listen to them.

She can shoot free throws, and I think they said she's only 18? Could be scary.

I can't even watch the games. Planning what to do with my free time!

And she didn't even make a mistake here. This is just "attack a woman because we can and want to and can make up a reason and people will still believe us instead".

Had to grab that, read the first couple paragraphs and thought "Oh, I definitely read this before." And I will again!

Early in that game Nneka missed a shot, got the rebound, missed the followup, got the rebound, worked free and passed it out. That's what bigs are supposed to do. Also, it's objectively not true Angel only rebounds her own misses, she's getting everyone's misses!

I favor a two pronged approach - expansion and/or impeachments, because certain members of the court have definitely violated their right to the office.

I think if plenty of people do this and overtly ignore the haters it will be more effective than engaging. Just show them they don't belong. No need to say anything. They want a reaction. They want ppl to get angry. Just overwhelm their message with positive messages supporting those they hate.

ZigZaggin @zigzaggin.bsky.social · 30/07/2026
It was a trap, and it worked. It's the asymmetrical warfare the right uses so well and it works for them because they have no values and no problem with hypocrisy. Being a decent person puts you at a disadvantage that they then exploit. Trolls want to elicit your worst reaction.

Calling a foul on that last shot would have been atrocious. (Though I did completely expect it.)

The fact that this was a story beyond the first mention is absurd. People are so weird.
