Dream criticize WNBA for scheduling issues ahead of Game 6
Summary

The Atlanta Dream expressed frustration over a scheduling conflict that forced Game 6 of the WNBA Finals to be played at 12:30 PM ET on Thursday. The game was originally affected by the scheduling of home games for the Hawks at State Farm Arena, leading the Dream to consider the smaller Gateway Center Arena as a possible venue. The team sent an open letter to fans detailing their dissatisfaction, stating that concerns raised about the timing of the Finals were not adequately addressed. Future seasons may improve for the Dream with a new five-year contract for exclusive use of State Farm Arena.
