Second half underway -- 4 games last night.
1. Leslie-less Sparks eked out a win over Phoenix. Took two OTs to get there. Mabika stepped up for LA with 26 points, and Plenette Pierson had 26 off the bench for the Mercury. Rhonda Mapp (who?) was a hero for LA.
2. The Mystics started the second half off on the right foot by beating New York. Holdsclaw didn't shoot well, but got to the line 17 times and ended up with 24 points. Chamique had only one thing to say: "Finally." It was a shocking loss for New York.
3. Sue Bird had another almost-triple-double in the Storm's win over Houston. Sue had 13 points, 10 assists, ant 8 rebounds. Seattle moved past Houston into second place. Steve Kelley says the Storm will win a title some day.
4. Sacramento topped Cleveland. Penicheiro had 15 assists (and only 2 turnovers), and Tangela Smith had 22 points. The Monarchs interim coach John Whisenant missed the game after being rushed to the hospital after an allergic reaction to medication.
