Los Angeles vs Detroit - Like the 80's, but this time with boobs

Is it any surprise that the “Detroit Shock” is coached by Rick Mahorn and Bill Laimbeer? Yes, thats the NBA’s own legend Rick Mahorn the “baddest bad boy”… a WNBA league coach (worse a guy) shoving Lisa Leslie. What’s up with that? I thought she was the WNBA’s equivalent to Michael Jordan. Maybe Mahorn was having flashback’s to the Jordan vs Piston days. He was ejected by the way…

NOTE: to Mahorn it looks like Canidce Parker is the new Jordan of the league. She’s not only the 2nd WNBA player to ever dunk–Lisa Leslie was the first…but she cried today—she’s also the first to ever throw a legit punch.

Candice Parker was one of three players ejected along with Detroit assistant coach Rick Mahorn after an ugly scuffle with 4.6 seconds left in Los Angeles’ 84-81 victory.

“To be honest, I don’t recall exactly what happened,” said Parker, who led Los Angeles with 21 points. “I’ll have to watch the tape.”

The skirmish started moments after Parker and Detroit’s Cheryl Ford had to be separated after Ford fouled Parker.

On the next possession, Parker got tangled up with Detroit’s Plenette Pierson and fell to the ground. As she was getting up, Pierson intentionally ran into her, setting off the melee.

Parker threw a punch at Pierson before being tackled by Detroit’s Deanna Nolan. Players and coaches from both teams joined in, and Mahorn knocked Lisa Leslie to the court at one point.

With league milestones being hit daily people might actually have to start watching now. First the 2nd dunk (more like a rim touching layup), and now brawls. I have to say that the WNBA has come a long way.
