Yasmin ShirazHOST
New York beat Minnesota in five games that year for the Liberty's first championship ever.
Yasmin ShirazHOST
That game five came down to a disputed foul on Alana Smith with 5.2 seconds left.
Yasmin ShirazHOST
Stewart hit both free throws and New York won in overtime.

Afterward, Cheryl Reeves said the title was quote unquote stolen.
RachGUEST
Yeah.
KateHOST
I, I just saw this today that Alana Smith's sister also plays.
KateHOST
I think she plays for-
RachGUEST
Oh
Melissa TriebwasserGUEST
And I think Jessica Shepard has to have a long look in the mirror this year if she is going to play the five at this level um she's got to be a little bit better of a rim protector she does not have to be a walk but she can't have what two blocks on the season like that's just almost statistically impossible um and i think she needs to get a little bit more physical back to mason's point um at the rim i think she's capable of doing it she's being asked to do something that has not been a huge part of her game and if she's going to do that she can't be bringing the ball up on 30 of the possessions either because now she's expending too much energy offensively um But it'd be really nice to bring in a bigger, thicker, mobile defensive post to help with that defense on the interior.
Melissa TriebwasserGUEST
You have to assume Alana Smith won't have the terrible injury luck again.
Melissa TriebwasserGUEST
that she had this year, and that obviously changes what they can do defensively.
Melissa TriebwasserGUEST
In the rare times we saw Awok, Alana, and Jessica on the floor together, the defense was much, much improved.
Megan HustwaiteGUEST

A-and Sandy Brondello, the head coach, who also head coached a first-year team, Toronto Tempo, she had a shocking run of injuries at Toronto, and it then continued into the World Cup with Alana Smith sidelined with a calf injury.
Megan HustwaiteGUEST
Um, Ezzie Magdago, devastating in sporting terms, ruptured her ACL, and then Jade Melbourne missed games with the flu, and the whole team got really quite sick over there, um, in Berlin.
Megan HustwaiteGUEST
So yeah, really disappointing campaign.

Sandy BrondelloGUEST
But, um, you know, it's unfortunate.
Sandy BrondelloGUEST
But, you know, for the Opals, we, we wanted to be on the podium, but when your best players get injured, it's really hard, with Sammy and then Alana Smith and then Ezzy, poor Ezzy, um, with the ACL.
Sandy BrondelloGUEST
And-
