That 8th Seed is going to be a battle. Four teams fighting for that 8th Seed (Los Angeles, Atlanta, Minnesota, and New York). Looking forward to the Sparks/Liberty game tomorrow.

Barclay Court filled with crazy XBox ads/designs but good game. Liberty up 24-22 after 1 Q. Liberty players got XBox sets.

Bueckers and Fudd are taking in the Mystics-Aces game. Munching on nachos.

No Cloud or Clark today. Atkins hurt her back in Q1. Mystics started out good but are in trouble now, trailing 26-13.

What the heck? Hammon emptied her bench to starrt Q2, and the lead instantly disappeared. That is just a really bad decision on her part.

ESPN's box score for this game is TOTALLY wrong.

ESPN is still out to lunch. Plum has at least 14, they are showing her w/ 7. Wilson missed her first 2 shots and they are showing her as 5-6. Just COMPLETELY off w/ their box score.

Same as WNBA boxscore. Same feed I guess. I knew something was wrong when I saw Stokes with 3 shots. ;)

Of course, nothing wrong with the Liberty Boxscore with Sabrina at 20 pts, 5 Rebounds and 4 assists at half. Maybe she has a 30 pt triple double in her again. :D

ESPN is showing the halftime score 41-39. Not even close. It's 49-36. What are they doing over there?

edit--okay, Yahoo has the same incorrect score. It's all coming from the same source, definitely fake news. :eek:

Maybe I should've not bothered watching the correct stream. Plum not looking too good, but Young is even worse and Hamby is a no show. Only 2 starters playing worth a darn isn't enough. Mystics are gonna win despite EDD doing almost nothing.

Aces just absolutely look terrible in Q4. No ball movement, just taking turns jacking shots and missing. I guess it doesn't count if you play well against the Fever...because it's the Fever.

Hate to report but Katie Lou is way out of kilter. Cant hit the side of a barn from 3. And she started out 3-4 doing some inside work but totally went away from that.

Liv looking pretty good on offense (5-6) and on the boards but gets lost on defense quit. But she is making moves with great footwork which is a good start

Crystal steady . Stef blows her nose and they blow a foul :mad:

Mystics have the Aces number. Swept the season series, and two of the games were fairly lopsided in the second half.

Mystics sweep the Aces during regular season 3-0. Aces got 5pts from their bench. Mystics got 25.

Lib by (almost) 30 over the Sparks. Ionescu went off. Howard with another impressive double double. Dangerfield and Allen couldn't repeat their offensive explosion from the previous game, but they got some nice scoring off the bench from Xu and Johannes.

Did DT get hurt? Only played 11 minutes. She's cooled off after being on fire for a stretch of games.

Sun had 7 in double figures, Merc had 3 (only 2 starters).

She was rubbing her calf I think on the bench.

Parker is back and Ogunbowale is out. Does Dallas have any chance?

edit--Burton is starting over Harris?
