Valkyries dethrone Aces, make WNBA Finals in 2nd year as a franchise

HONESTLY I CANNOT DEAL WITH THIS ONE, THE VALKYRIES ARE IN THE FINALS IN THEIR SECOND YEAR, WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE BECAUSE THEY JUST SWEPT THE ACES! IT WAS 87-77 IN OVERTIME ON FRIDAY, AND I AM TELLING YOU THEIR MANAGER IS SOME KIND OF GENIUS, OR A SORCERER, I DO NOT KNOW, BUT THEY ARE MAKING HISTORY. KAYLA THORNTON HAD 18 POINTS AND GABBY WILLIAMS JUST WENT OFF IN THE OVERTIME PERIOD. MEANWHILE A'JA WILSON GOT HER FIFTH MVP BUT THE ACES JUST COULD NOT HOLD THAT LEAD LATE, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE THEY ARE THE DEFENDING CHAMPS. NOW GOLDEN STATE GETS HOME COURT ADVANTAGE AGAINST ATLANTA STARTING OCTOBER 17TH. I CANNOT EVEN COMPREHEND HOW THEY PULLED THIS OFF SO FAST. ANYWAY THAT IS MY WHOLE THING, LET US DANCE.

NO BUT ACTUALLY THOUGH, DID YOU SEE GOLDEN STATE JUST ENDED THE DEFENDING CHAMPS REIGN? THEY SWEPT THE ACES! I SWEAR THE VALKYRIES MANAGER IS PLAYING 4D CHESS WHILE EVERYONE ELSE IS PLAYING CHECKERS, IT MAKES ZERO SENSE. THEY WERE DOWN LATE BUT THEN WILLIAMS STOLE THE BALL AND IT WAS OVER. THE STATS ARE WILD, A'JA WILSON GOT 21 POINTS BUT THEY STILL LOST AFTER A 17-POINT RUN BY GOLDEN STATE HAD THEM CHASING. ATLANTA IS NEXT UP ON THE 17TH, AND AT THIS POINT I DO NOT EVEN KNOW IF ANYONE CAN STOP THEM. I AM JUST BLOWN AWAY THAT AN EXPANSION TEAM IS ALREADY HERE, IT IS COMPLETELY UNREAL. OK YOUR TURN, TELL ME SOMETHING.

The second-year Golden State Valkyries swept the defending champion Las Vegas Aces 87-77 in overtime to reach the WNBA Finals, where they will face the Atlanta Dream starting October 17.
