Last night's games:

1. The Sun shot 15 fo 63 in a loss to Washington. No wonder no one goes to their games.

Says the Courant: it was erratic, discombobulated, sloppy, and ham-fisted.

Says Coach Thibault: "I never would have thought we could have shot the ball that badly."

Sales Sales (2 for 16): "Have you seen my jump shot?"

Asjha Jones continued her late-season comeback and led the Mystics with 14 off the bench.

2. San Antonio prevailed in the intrastate battle with Houston. The Stars have not put together a three-game win streak for the first time. Ferdinand had 18, and both Dydek and Goodson had double-doubles.

3. Phoenix: bad defense, bad offense. Just bad. Another loss.

Penny Taylor had 33 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals, and 2 blocks for the Rockers. Her 33 broke Cleveland's scoring record. Said Taylor: "That's pretty exciting. It's always good to break records."

4. Coach Adubato was near tears last night after Riley hit a last-second shot to give Detroit the win over New York. "It's a heartbreaking loss for a number of reasons," Adubato said. "We had a chance to win the game. This is a hard one to take."

New York is now 9-13. They still have a shot at the playoffs, and they remain optimistic. But something will need to turn around fast.

Both Deanna Nolan and Crystal Robinson got thrown out of the game for fighting. The Liberty thought it was bullcrap that Robinson got tossed.
