The New York Liberty bounced back from a shaky end to the regular season with an impressive 83-69 victory over the Atlanta Dream in Game 1 of their WNBA playoff series. Led by Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart, the Liberty controlled the game from start to finish, showcasing the offensive firepower and defensive intensity that made them the league's top seed.
Sandy Brondello’s 10-minute pregame press conference was dominated by questions about the Liberty ’s postseason readiness.
Her players certainly were ready, performing up to their league-best regular season record. They scored eight of the first 10 points of Game 1, led by double figures just 6:21 after the opening tip and cruised to an 83-69 victory over the Dream at Barclays Center Sunday afternoon. The Liberty can close out the series Tuesday night back in Brooklyn.
They looked like a team that fully intends to keep playing for a while, and return to the WNBA Finals. Sean 'Diddy' Combs filmed music video inside Hollywood mansion now overtaken by squatters; abandoned by MLB team owner's son
