Another Close One
They played New York today, and were behind (sometimes by more than 10!) for the entire first half. Sometime in the third they tied it up, but then New York got ahead again, etc.
They ended up winning by eight, but it was close. Way too close! Considering they were playing without Lauren Jackson, though, I guess I should be happy we got the win. (Le'Coe Willingham and Jana Vesala did a great job filling in, by the way. The usually awesome Svetlana Abrosimova had an off night, though.)

"Glance at the Storm's record and look at Tuesday's win against New York and it's easy to believe it was easy. A shot here. A rebound there. A seventh consecutive victory to remain the WNBA's top team headed into the All-Star break.
Well, it wasn't.
'Grind' was the word most often used after the Storm defeated the Liberty 78-70 at a KeyArena matinee Tuesday."
I agree completely!
