We Are The Champions, Again!!!

CONGRATULATIONS to the Detroit Shock for winning the 2006 WNBA Championship! The Motor City is title town once again after the Shock defeated the defending champion Sacramento Monarchs in Game Five of the finals.
The score: SAC 75 DET 80.

More than 19,000 fans, the second largest crowd in WNBA playoffs history, were on hand at Joe Louis Arena in Downtown Detroit for the big win. The game was played at JLA because of a previously scheduled concert at the Palace of Auburn Hills, the Shock's regular home arena.

Point guard Deanna Nolan was named WNBA Finals MVP after scoring 24 points in Game Five and averaging 18 points for the series.

This is the second title in four years for the the Shock. They defeated the Los Angeles Sparks to win the 2003 title.

The Palace of Auburn Hills will now change its address from 4 Championship Drive to 5 Championship Drive. And, they earn a return visit to The White House to meet President Bush. Way to go ladies!!!!!

Oh, Good Evening!
