Fans at MSG last night booed both Weatherspoon and Whitmore.

"I don't know if they said 'Spoon' or 'boo' — I really don't know," said Spoon. "If that was a boo, you tell me how I feel. It didn't feel good at all. . . . When I stepped between those four lines at MSG, I gave my life. And to be booed? That didn't feel good."

"It was laughable," said Whitmore. "Truthfully I feel vindicated and very, very glad. I left one team and went to a better one."

The game on the court was pretty brutal. New York's last loss was embarassing, and this was probably worse. 26% shooting. 16 turnovers and only 7 assists.

"We had open looks," coach Adubato said. "I got my three best shooters, Becky, Crystal and Elena pen shots. They just didn't go in tonight."
