Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, June 26, 2006

Sacramento had two things return in their 82-61 win over Indiana on Sunday - their trademark defense and DeMya Walker.

Walker played in her second game of the season after giving birth to a baby girl in April. In 13 minutes, she scored 11 points on 5-10 shooting. Defensively, the team held one of the most consistent scorers this season, Tamika Whitmore, to 0-6 from the floor.

According to Ticha Penicheiro, "Today we did a tremendous job defensively. We just need to play like we want it more. We need to bring it every game." Having John Whisenant back on the sidelines should also help the defending champs recapture their play from last season.
