3 Reasons Liberty Are In Big Trouble After Game 1 Debacle Vs. Sun

The New York Liberty looked far from the juggernaut team that dominated the regular season in Game 1 of their best-of-five WNBA semi-finals series against the Connecticut Sun. Connecticut, who went winless against New York during their season series, shocked the Liberty with a 78-63 beatdown of the No. 2 seed team. The Sun set the tone early in the first quarter and eventually controlled the rest of the game in the second half with terrific basketball on both sides of the floor. The Liberty, after their “worst game of the season,” now find themselves in a must-win situation for Game 2 as they ideally want to avoid going into Connecticut down 2-0.
