Re: FIRST PURPLE AND ORANGE CHURCH TITLE
Makes you wonder with D'Antoni making his style popular and Westhead winning a title if he bolts to the NBA or sticks around to defend his title.

Re: FIRST PURPLE AND ORANGE CHURCH TITLE
I didn't realize P.J was already trying to lure him to Seattle. wouldn't those be contrasting styles? P.J. coming from Popovich & the Spurs & having a D'Antoni clone on his bench, interesting. Westhead has already proven himself so much more than P.J., I was thinking he would bolt only for a head coaching job, he is too good to play second-fiddle to P.J. or any other NBA head coach. Paul you have nothing more to prove! Stay with the girls!

Re: FIRST PURPLE AND ORANGE CHURCH TITLE
Rick Kamla, NBA TV
What happened: Phoenix did what they've done all season long, running and gunning and shooting well from all over the court. It's a style of play that has proven successful here in the WNBA, and the Suns play much the same way in the NBA. You can win by hitting threes, running the court and playing a wide-open, entertaining style of ball.
I don't want to take anything away from Phoenix, but I am placing some blame on Detroit. I think they came out flat. In Game 2 at home with a chance to put a stranglehold on this series, they didn't do it and showed up flat. Today, in the championship game, they show up flat.
I understand all of the injury issues with Cheryl Ford and Deanna Nolan, even the black eye on Katie Smith, but there are no excuses. It's Game 5. Bill Laimbeer is not going to sleep for three days because of the way his ladies played in Games 2 and 5.
Penny Taylor was huge for Phoenix tonight with 30 to lead the way. She had one field goal and six points in Game 4, but they still won. And you had to figure on a big bounce-back game from her. She's an intangible player, she's a glue player, and you can't win without players like Penny Taylor. She's not physically imposing, her jump shot doesn't wow you, her defense isn't spectacular. But she's a worker and a grinder who gets it done. She was the World Championships MVP last year, so you know she loves these types of situations. I love her game.
With Cappie Pondexter, it was much the same story as Game 4. She didn't have a remarkable first half, but in the second half, she just decided to start busting people. I wondered where she was during the first few games of the series. She had her points, but they were quiet. But these last two games, she has scored some LOUD points. She has taken over games like only she can. If she's not the MVP, I'm missing something.

Dan Hughes, San Antonio Silver Stars head coach, 2007 WNBA Coach of the Year and ESPN Radio analyst
What happened: Phoenix did what they did all season. That was their game. That was the Phoenix team we competed against in the Western Conference Finals. They shot the ball so well today, they got timely hoops, Penny Taylor really set a tone and Pondexter was exceptional in the second half.
What Detroit will look back and feel bad about is Game 4 Thursday in Phoenix. They felt like that was their opportunity to close things out and hey - they ****ed up and choked big-time. With a team like the Mercury, you're playing with fire, and Detroit knew the Phoenix offense had struggled at home and would probably find the basket eventually. And they sure did tonight.

Re: FIRST PURPLE AND ORANGE CHURCH TITLE
Good job with the photos Butler. The Mercury broke the curse. Championships in basketball CAN be won in Phoenix. Wouldnt it be something to have the hardware from both leagues at U.S. Airways ? I'm loving it.
