Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, July 07, 2003

A surprising loss for Detroit yesterday -- not just the result, but the manner. They got slammed by Indiana. The Shock have been an offensive machine lately, but yesterday they fell apart: 31% from the floor, 26 turnovers to 14 assists. Swin and Ruth had only 6 points each.

Folks are starting to get worried. Says the Free Press: "It's official: The magic from the Shock's early-season eight-game winning streak is over."

Catchings (17 points, 7 boards, 6 steals, 4 assists) dominated the match-up with Cash, and her excellent play rubbed off on her teammates.
