WNBA GIRL FIGHT!!!


WNBA FIGHT

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."I was trying to protect the whole game, the integrity of the game," he said. "The WNBA is very special to me because I have four daughters. I don't even raise my hand to them, and I would never push a woman. This game, I love this game too much."Mahorn was also involved in the 2004 Detroit Pistons-Indiana Pacers brawl while working as a Detroit broadcaster, going into the crowd to try to pull Ron Artest away from fans."Rick Mahorn is known as a peacemaker, from even the brawl we had here with Indiana," Detroit coach Bill Laimbeer said. "He went out there to get people off the pile and to get people to stop the confrontation. That's who he is, that's what he does."

For Full Story

Tsk tsk tsk....To think there was only five seconds left in the game. Candace Parker made the second ever dunk in WNBA history (first one - Lisa Leslie).

Also, Ms. Parker is the first player in the league to DUNK TWICE! Watch this video.
