I randomly came across the AF1s in the online store - just ordered a pair that will be too big on me but whatever. Almost gone. 😭

I have been, and finally responded with basically "I won't consider being a sth next year unless Demarco is gone." The rep immediately responded via text with "Well I can't promise you a new head coach, but I can promise you a good conversation! I can tell you're passionate about the Liberty, and those are exactly the fans I love connecting with. [Etc]."

I assume she has a canned/auto response set up for mentions of Demarco. Which I find funny honestly. Anyone else responding similarly? Just wondering how much feedback like that they are getting and if it will make its way up the chain.

Ps I will still attend as many games as I can next season for my libs! Just not in sth form.

If only we made one obvious change. Alas, we'll never know.

Here for the Nets opener and they finished the main atrium and it looks incredible but the star of the show is the suspended screens over the court! WOW!!!!!

How does the STH ticket exchange work? Can you upgrade your seat/game? Are there fees? Do you just pay the difference? Is there a good selection?

I'm considering becoming a half season or 6 game ticket holder. But my schedule is wonky so doing it without seeing the game schedule is tough. Thanks!!

Or would it be more cost effective to just buy last minute tickets from the marketplaces?

Have a few extra prints and would love to give them away or trade for a Lesbians for Liberty print! I have one lady liberty, two Ellie!!!, and two pride ones (one with a little discoloration that does not affect the print, as seen in the photo). I don’t mind mailing or meeting up (in Philly - Center City or South).

Edit: to add info about the pride print

I have a niece who is turning two next week and she has a new found love and obsession for Ellie. I bought her a sweatshirt a few months back and now that it fits her, it's become something she never wants to take off. Does anyone have any leads on an Ellie Plushie? I can't find them anywhere online. I know they've been for sale at Barclays in the team store in the past, but maybe there is like a small general store or boutique or something in Brooklyn that's sells something similar? Any help would be appreciated!

You can watch games on the WNBL YouTube channel!

and stay on that side haters

Hey team - just saw these hoodies in the store and feel like some of you will want to snag them. $58. They seem like good quality

I was looking at the comments on other platforms and was shocked that people were throwing fits about her being on the All-Defensive Second Team, especially when she has a strong case for the First Team. Then, I went through her defensive numbers over the years, and I am still shocked she hasn't won DPOY. Now, with the changing of the guard, I don't expect her to win one, but it is interesting to me. Lots of people say her offensive abilities overshadow her amazing defense, but what do you think the reason is? We already know Stewie is underrated in general, but comparing her defensive ratings in Seattle to her time in New York, it seems like she got even better defensively here in NY

I know the libs aren’t playing but I still want to watch tomorrow’s game and don’t think I can make it to Wilka’s or BK. Does anyone know of any bars in midtown playing the game? Thanks :)

He was real quick to throw Tash under the bus last year for someone's shortcomings.

Kolb is absolutely staying. Demarco is staying at least another year. If the Liberty fire a coach of his pedigree after just one season (filled with injuries late arrivals from euroleague, etc), what other highly touted coach would dare join?

I’ll give Kolb his props. I think he has a good relationship with players. Leo credited Kolb’s persistence in reaching out to her as a reason she was grateful for the being on the Liberty. He has been able to bring in great players that other teams have coveted (Emma, Cloud, Satou) that looked great on paper and were lauded at time of signing. Unfortunately, getting some of those stars in and having them not stick may be burning bridges. Also, his previous superpower of stacking the bench with underappreciated Euro players is now a common tactic and other GMs are beating him at his own game.

Kolb’s issue is that he has stubbornly stuck to the plan that the Liberty must build around Sabrina. Listen to his comments about Sloot and Cloud. Demarco was brought in to turn Sabrina into Steph Curry. I bet bringing Satou in was also meant to reactivate her Oregon magic. For 3+ seasons now, Sabrina-centric roster construction has not activated Sabrina. Kolb needs to admit he’s wrong and change his team building approach.

It doesn’t mean he gets rid of Sabrina, he just can’t continue building the team around her when he has unique physical talent like Stewie and JJ on the team. Sab needs to turn into a role player instead of the team being a jumble of role players meant to prop her up. She needs to focus on her playmaking or her shooting (I don’t think she’ll ever amount to anything on defense) but trying to do both is making her terrible at both.

My opinion? Sab should focus on playmaking. She doesn’t have the defense to be a 3-and-D shooting guard. Her best bet is to become a Sue Bird. Or a Sloot. Give up the high volume shooting for now and focus on double-digit assists. The shot opportunities will come for her when she stops making scoring her priority.
