The Rutgers University Women’s Basketball program has it’s fair share of former stars currently playing in the WNBA. The seven former Scarlet Knights have been enjoying success in professional basketball, including this season. It’s worth taking a look at and, if you are a Rutgers sports fan, you should be…

The general notion in this year’s WNBA is that it is split in two — Stanford All-American Nneka Ogwumike, and everyone else.  The rest of the field is a blend of great talent.  Some you have heard of.  Some you have not heard of.  In the case of the players…

I made some ill-timed decisions this summer, among them was planning a personal trip to Washington, D.C. earlier this month. Though everything in the nation’s capital was up to expectation, my time away from the Big Apple meant time away from the New York Liberty, the team I fondly developed…

The offseason will be a long one for the Liberty players and their die-hard fans, and the pain of the disappointing postseason series loss is probably still fresh in their minds. But for many of us, most of the dust from the early playoff exit has settled, meaning that the…

The one constant through the 2011 season and throughout the past two seasons has been Cappie Pondexter. Clearly one of, if not the best guard in the WNBA, Pondexter was all but lights out for the Liberty heading into this year’s playoffs. Who would even consider raising the question “What…

If you never watched a Liberty game until this year, you would fall into the trap like many others who recognize Kia Vaughn’s skill, size and talent as those belonging to a veteran All-Star. Of course, you’d be wrong because Vaughn, only in her third year in the WNBA, was…

There was no getting around it: the Liberty had to go on the road and steal a game if they were to have a shot at winning its first round series against Indiana. That tenet still holds true, but the twist is that New York must first win tonight at…

Are you craving some good basketball? With owners and the NBA Players Association still squabbling, or shall I say not even talking to one another, the reality of watching regular season hoops this fall is wishful thinking. And some skeptics believe, and rightfully so, that the NBA will likely scrap…

As I predicted last week, the Liberty dropped to fourth place in the Eastern Conference standings and are now in line to face No. 1 Indiana in the opening round of the WNBA playoffs. I wish that my forecast had been wrong. If you look at the bottom line, yes,…

The Liberty aren’t just hoping to steal a victory from Minnesota during this weekend’s home-and-home series with the Lynx. I think the best way to describe New York’s two games against the league’s best team and the final four games of the regular season simply as survival. With just three…
