The Tweets Tell the Story of the Game
Both from the Seattle Storm website:
Midway through the fourth quarter, the Storm leads 75-50. The season low for the @PhoenixMercury is 70 points.
The 19-point margin of victory is the Storm's largest in the playoffs since Oct. 5, 2004 vs. Sacramento.
The Seattle Times article has a nice encapsulation, too: There was a moment midway in the third quarter of the Storm's 80-61 win Thursday against Phoenix that told the told the story of their playoff-opening win. Storm guard Tanisha Wright chased down a pass from the Mercury's Alexis Gray-Lawson and tip toed along the sideline before giving the ball to Sue Bird. The Storm's All-Star guard led a fast break and made an assist to Wright who buried a three-pointer at the top of the key that sent the 7,279 KeyArena fans into a frenzy. It was that type of night for the Storm...
Yeeeeaaaahhh! The only bad part of a blowout is that the last quarter isn't very exciting. But a good win! We'll see how Phoenix reacts on Saturday, though.
p.s. WNBA.com posted a cool "Player Sound-Off" with Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi.
