Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Friday, July 15, 2005

After three weeks and three days with just three games, the Indiana Fever will now play six games in 11 days. Game two of that stretch takes place tonight. Fever coach Brian Winters: "I like the games, maybe not every other day, but at least a little closer together. I don't like the long down time. No matter what you do in practice, you can't simulate the energy of a game."

The Comets visit Connecticut. Michelle Snow says she learned from her All-Star game. Houston has won six of its last seven. Connecticut still boasts the league's best record, but has now dropped two in a row.

Brooke Wycoff calls Wednesday's collapse in Indianapolis "the worst game we've ever played"; Katie Douglas dubs it "one of the ugliest." Connecticut coach Thibault, very unhappy: "We haven't gotten better in the last week. We've regressed."

Also tonight, the Lynx visit New York. The Lynx are 7-1 at home, but 2-7 on the road.
