We're nearly halfway through the WNBA season and Sue Bird continues to light it up during her retirement tour. On Sunday, the Seattle Storm took it to the New York Liberty and walked away with their 10th win on the season. Afterward, Bird delivered a message that will crack a smile on the fans of the New York Knicks.

During the immediate post-game interview, Sue Bird made sure to have the last words in what might be her final game in New York. The Storm star made sure it was loud and clear for the city to hear, as she echoed “Bing-Bong” through the microphone. The arena erupted in what turned out to be a funny moment for the veteran guard. Regardless of her playing for Seattle, Knicks and Liberty fans should find it entertaining.

It was a close contest throughout, but in the end, Sue Bird hit a dagger late in the fourth quarter to clinch the victory for the Storm. She put up an impressive stat line of 11 points, four assists, and three rebounds. This was a solid outing for the veteran guard as the end of her career nears.

At the very least, Bird is genuinely having fun during her WNBA retirement tour. Since joining the league in 2002, she's played a vital role for the Seattle Storm as it's the only team she has ever played for. With four championships and 12 all-star appearances, along with five Olympic gold medals, Sue Bird will be retiring from the league as a true legend of the sport.

It'll be interesting to see what she does in retirement. We've seen multiple big-name athletes become analysts these days, so perhaps she'll join a panel as well. Regardless, it will be fun to watch her end her historic career with the Storm as the franchise aims for one more title with Sue Bird on the roster.
