Description: That’s right, the Valkyries are in the Finals. To celebrate complete NBR vindication, we have on two of our favorite guests to talk W with, Defector’s Maitreyi Anantharaman and Rough Notes’ Maya Goldberg-Safir. We discuss how both the Valks and the Dream found themselves in this position, Valks coach Natalie Nakase’s incredible journey, and a slim chance that the Dream are actually the team of destiny.LINKSGot a tip?
