I spoke to the President earlier. We had a productive conversation and I explained to him that his staff doesn’t have their facts straight about Minnesota. My thoughts in the Wall Street Journal:

@ryankopperud I saw this yesterday and didn’t think much of it, today a Ratking song popped up on my playlist and it made me think of this so I just googled it. Thanks, I hate it
English
@atx_traineryeag @Alexand28619667 Not shooting in either of them? lol
English
@ryankopperud @Alexand28619667 One of these was for sure called a foul on the floor. Not shooting in either of them 🤷🏻 Not sure if 2nd was called or not..
English
In my entire sports watching career I’ve never seen a more unanimous & vocal consensus that a game was rigged.
From journalists to independent viewers to current & former pro players the clear take is that NY was kept in the game at best; outright picked to win it at worst.
🧵
English
@ryankopperud @Alexand28619667 You can’t just assume that one team deserves shooting fouls lol. NY defense was so bad in the first half that they weren’t contesting shots even… so no foul shots when you don’t foul on a shot ha
English
@atx_traineryeag @Alexand28619667 The discrepancy is in the type of foul. The Liberty were awarded *17* more free throws than the Lynx.
English
@ryankopperud @Alexand28619667 It was only a 4 foul difference in the game. That’s not that much of a discrepancy. 21-17 on fouls called.
English
@Alexand28619667 This is the take I can’t get over and can’t abide by. At the end of regulation the Liberty had shot nearly *20 more free throws* than the Lynx.
The Lynx didn’t “leave the lead to one possession”, the game had been *kept* within one possession using free throws all night.
English
@ryankopperud Bad call 100%
But despite playing against the worst NY has ever played this season, the Lynx left the lead to one possession. Then had ample time in OT to win it, but choked instead.
Refs sent it to OT, but MIN gave up the championship 🤷🏻♀️
English
@DOOHinsider Unfortunately, this isn’t even remotely the gotcha you think it is.
Also, the WNBA commissioner didn’t come out wearing a Lynx jersey after game four to hand them a trophy either.
English
@ryankopperud Did you have that same energy after game 4?
English
@MattTschida Oh 100%. “We can’t win on our skills, so here’s how to win with our acting!”
English
@ryankopperud Let’s not forget, “if they belly you, embellish it”…
BrickCenter@BrickCenter_
Liberty coach said “if they foul you, embellish it” and ESPN cut her mic 😭
English
@NelsonBeth You asked me a question in your last response, so I answered it? Have a good day!
English
@michelles2cool I've had so many replies and DM's that say exactly this: "I'm a (insert WNBA team fan that isn't Liberty or Lynx) and that was a joke."
English
@ryankopperud Fever fan here and that shit was just bad!😭😭😭
English
@NelsonBeth Yes, the Lynx should have been up! *If the Liberty hadn't been award 20 more free throws than the Lynx* throughout the course of the game. That's exactly my point!
English
All except those that work for, or have connections to/with that certain “4-letter network!!” Kicker is they still talk about the “Fail Mary”, & them moaning about other “officiating malfeasances” brought about replay usage in all sports-but they tap dancing around this one.🤷🏿♂️👍🏿

@NelsonBeth Huge difference between bad officiating and officiating with a motive. Hard agree the officiating was bad through the whole series but last night was *clearly* motivated. Sabrina and Stewart shot a combined 5/34, their team made 2 three's the entire night, and they win by 5?
English
@ryankopperud The commissioner is literally wearing a dress of the New York City skyline... At the trophy presentation...
English
@MinnyShinny Exactly. It doesn't pass the eye test, and it doesn't pass the data test. Which is why "rigged" has been trending all day... What a joke.
English
@ryankopperud I honestly felt the same way. Isn’t it also ironic that the word displayed across the New York jerseys is “Equality”?
There was nothing equal about how the series was called. Let alone the last game. Look at shots made, shooting percentage and any other statistical indicator.
