Liberty take first ‘punch’ of WNBA Finals
Drop Game 1 in Las Vegas as defending champion Aces roll
The Liberty absorbed the first blow from the Las Vegas Aces in the WNBA Finals.
But New York coach Sandy Brondello believes her resilient unit is ready to strike back.
“They took the first punch and now we have to respond,” Brondello said Sunday after New York suffered a 99-82 loss in Game 1 of the best-of-5 series before a capacity crowd of 10,300 at Michelob ULTRA Arena.
