Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Tuesday, June 01, 2004

After a day off yesterday, the league has four games on tap tonight.

Houston heads to Phoenix, and the Mercury will try to counter the Comets' experience and physical play. Taurasi is ready for the challenge: "Houston is one of the most physical and defensive teams we're going to meet all year, so early on I think it's a good way to see where we're at."

In their home opener tonight, the Sparks will try to get revenge on Seattle. Last weekend, the Storm embarrassed LA with a 26-point win. Said LJ: "They're definitely going to be angry and have something to prove. We're just going to try and roll with the punches and get the win."
