Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, June 22, 2006

The Fever barely missed and the Sky could not buy a basket and the game was basically over after the first quarter as Indy beat Chicago, 77-55.

After the first quarter, things evened out. But after the first quarter, the score was 31-6. The Fever shot 72 percent, while the Sky only connected on 21 percent of their shots in the quarter.

The win was the largest margin this season for the Fever and allowed Brian Winters to use his bench early and often. "We got to run. We had some good dribble drives and made baskets in transition. We wanted to get off to a good start. I wanted to play the bench more tonight and was able to do that so we didn’t burn people out."
