In Houston, the Comets came back from 18 down-- twice-- to beat Indiana in double-overtime madness. Swoopes scored 31, with 12 in the second OT.

"I was so frustrated with myself at the end of regulation," Swoopes recalled. "I missed three free throws that would have put us ahead, and we would have never gone into overtime." The Candyman called it "a real character building-game... We were in complete disarray, we went to a 2-3 zone and we clawed back."
