With my Lynx in a tight race for a playoff spot in the West, I'm officially rooting against Sacramento and Seattle even though I like both teams.

Both won tonight.

Kara Lawson had an amazing night for the Monarchs: 24 points in 26 minutes as Sacramento beat LA. Tamecka Dixon was back but out-out-sync, shooting only 2 for 13.

LJ: 23 points and 20 rebounds. Yes, 20 rebounds. If you put her out there alone she'd have a good chance -- Charlotte as a team had only 21.

Holdsclaw had 24 rebounds in a game earlier this year. Also against Charlotte.
