In the two late games, streaks were ended.

Indiana ended their three game losing streak with a close 88-84 win over Phoenix. The good news for Fever fans and USAB is that Tamika Catchings continues to make progress in her rehabilititation. Last night she scored 25 points, including two free throws down the stretch that helped her team win.

Entering the break, the defending champs are now six games out of first. "It's a hard loss to go into the break with," Diana Taurasi said. "We played tough, and there were some bounces here and there, and we just couldn't pull it out. It's definitely frustrating."

Meanwhile, the Storm continued to surprise other teams without Lauren Jackson. This time, they ended the seven game winning streak of the surging Monarchs with a 77-71 win. Sue Bird scored 24 and Swin Cash added 13 for the Storm.

Today, Bird is teammates with Monarch Kara Lawson. Her Storm teammate, Camille Little, already has the Olympics figured out. "We told [Bird] good luck, ball out, and come back with the gold. We told Lauren to get the silver and Kelly can have the bronze."

Jayda and Kevin once again fill in with great details of yesterday's game.
