Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Tuesday, May 23, 2006

The Sting and Sparks are looking to rebound from losses over the weekend as they meet tonight in Charlotte. Cutting down on turnovers and improved defense are a focus for the Sting. "We need to contain, we need to trust each other," coach Muggsy Bogues said. "There is too much guessing going on. We had too many missed assignments. In the second half and third quarter, we didn't have any energy. We need to stop people."

The Fever and Silver Stars are looking to build on their opening season wins from over the weekend as San Antonio hosts Indiana in its home opener. For San Antonio, the win over the Comets is over. "One down," Vickie Johnson told the team. "Thirty-three to go."

Crystal Robinson goes up against her former team as the Mystics open their season by hosting the Liberty. Robinson is just one of the many changes to the Mystics roster this season. Changes that Linda Hargrove thinks make this the best in Mystics history. Over at the DC BasketCases Blog, Judith believes this is a make or break year for her team.

Mystic fans can chat with Washington Post beat writer Jon Gallo today at 11 am ET. Meanwhile, the Liberty do not have any coverage in their local papers today.
