You've been on the ground covering the Liberty.
00:04
You've seen some things close up.
00:06
They're taking on the aces.
00:07
How they weathered this defense is the big question, but they do have all the tools on
00:11
offense.
00:12
What do you like about this matchup?
00:15
What I like about this matchup is the fact, I mean, besides the fact that we've had it
00:20
as a finals rematch from last year, right?
00:23
So there's all the storylines around that.
00:25
Are the Liberty hungry to get revenge here in the semis?
00:29
And yeah, I think they are.
00:30
I think they've been on a mission all season long.
00:32
But what I really like about this matchup is these teams are very comfortable with each
00:35
other.
00:36
They know each other.
00:37
Now, I understand people are going to look and say, what happened this year?
00:40
The Liberty swept the aces this season, but first game was without Chelsea Gray, who's
00:45
still been working her way back into form in terms of getting healthy.
00:48
And the aces sort of hit their stride towards the end of the season.
00:52
You saw a bit of it against the Seattle Storm.
00:54
So this is a different aces team.
00:56
And you saw that even in the last time these two teams met.
00:59
No Asia Wilson in that matchup, but the Liberty almost blew a huge 19 point lead that they
01:03
had in the fourth quarter and the aces showed a lot of fight.
01:06
This is a proud aces team.
01:08
They are the back-to-back defending champions.
01:10
They are not going to go away easily.
01:11
But what I like about this Liberty team that he didn't have last year, Casey, is the depth.
01:17
They have a ton of depth.
01:18
They now have made a change to the starting lineup, putting Leonie Feebich in the starting
01:21
lineup.
01:22
That was a fantastic move by Sandy Brondello, one she's been holding all year, didn't want
01:27
to show this lineup until the playoffs.
01:28
And I think the depth is what is the advantage here for the Liberty that they can go deeper.
01:33
Now the aces' advantage, they've got the best player in the world in Asia Wilson, no doubt
01:38
about that.
01:39
But I like the depth for the Liberty here, and I just think this team is on a mission.
01:42
I think they're going to be, they should be, if you're not up for any series in the playoffs,
01:46
you've got a problem as a professional athlete.
01:47
But I think they'll really be up for this series against the aces.
01:50
I think they're really focused.
01:51
And I like the Liberty in this one, but I think it's going to be an epic series.
