Angel Reese on the officiating: "I would definitely say last game...there was also a possession where Gabby pulled me on purpose and she was screaming foul foul, foul and they didn't call it. So that definitely was frustrating for sure. And her team is saying it and they're all screaming foul, but the refs, I don't know what's going on why they can't hear it. And I know I have the mismatch, especially we were talking about matchups. So when I do switch on the post and I'm a lot stronger than the opponent, I should be able to turn and they're calling offensive foul, but I'm getting pushed before that. So that is frustrating for sure. It definitely shifted when we went up 2-1 and things shifted and I don't know what happened, but it definitely took a big turn"

The referees said this wasn’t a foul on the Valkyries, but they’re calling this on us:

Karl Smesko rips the officiating: "The contact they allow on Angel compared to everybody else is just ridiculous, just ridiculous. And we should have gone to the foul line six to eight more times just on that and then to miss double dribbles and travels, multiple that always led to points? Man, you can't be at this level and make that many mistakes. I'm kind of tired of some of the excuses that I'm hearing"

fantastic job by the refs on this no call, all ball here
