Storm @ Sparks

[6th]

Been a close game most of the way, but L.A. has gone on a run and are up by 9 with 3 min to go.

Oops! update: Lennox hits a bucket and will go to the line after break. Seattle only down 7 with 2:49 to go. While I hate L.A. (hey, it's a law), I want them to hang on and force a game 3, which would be on Tues.

No matter who we play in the Western Conf finals, they would not have much time to prepare for the Monarchs on Thurs.

Lennox misses FT. Sparks does not score, but then Jackson called for a charge (her 5th foul). Sparks score. Up by 9 with 1:46 left.

Leslie blocks Lennox.

 

[6th]

Burse fouls out. Leslie to the line. 1:29 left.

There will be a game 3. Woohoo!!

Whoa! Sue Bird's face stops a pass. May have just broken her nose again. If so, isn't this the 3rd time?

 

[6th]

L.A. wins 78-70. Now, let them wear themselves out on Tues. We will not know until late Tues, whether we are playing at ARCO vs. Sparks on Thurs night, or whether we are playing in Seattle on Thurs night.

That looked nasty! She should know by now that she needs to wear the mask. This is the third time.

Man poor Sue Bird and that nose of hers! Third time breakin that thing? Gosh! That was an exciting game...of course I was going for Seattle. But there's always game three now. And I thought if Seattle wins this series, we'll be playing them at ARCO?

If Seattle wins, we play game 1 in Seattle, and then games 2 and 3 (if necessary) at ARCO.

Game was already decided, MBF. It was with well less than a minute to go. In fact, I would say it was in the last 20 or so seconds of the game.

Hmmm..where was I???? I thought I watched up til the end of the game. I found out I missed the good part of the Mystics Sun game, because I certainly don't remember sitting through any part of that game that was thrilling or close. Sheesh...I @*#( as a WNBA fan today.....But I did manage to watch both game 1 and 2 of the Sac series again...so I'll get to keep my Monarchs fan card...

Actually, I would like to see the play again. While Bird's face broke up the pass, I'm not sure if it was the ball or the arm that popped her. Either way, she went down. Ouch!!!

Shoot, I should know better than to lean back, prop up the feet and enjoy a game. I slept through the 4th quarter!!!!! Well, at least you were all watching to report on it. Thanks. But I was kind of hoping that Seattle would do like all the other teams and finish off in 2.
