Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, June 26, 2008

In the only other game from Tuesday that we're likely to cover today (dunks or no dunks), Indiana came from far back to beat the visiting Monarchs. The Fever would have had an easier time of it had they shot better than 67% from what used to be their favorite place, the free throw line.

The Indy Star profiles that game's hero: once-maligned post player Ebony Hoffman. Anyone know she used to own a winery? She sold it, though: "I'm into other things now."

Things like conditioning: "Ebony has spent an awful lot of time coming early to the gym, staying late," says coach Dunn. No wonder she's improved.

Hey, the Star (that is, the Star's Fever beat reporter, K. L. Porter) also has a Fever blog. Cool. The recharged Fever (hi, Catch!) meet the Lib on ESPN2 tonight.
