Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better

The stumbling Fever dropped their sixth straight. Indiana had no answer for Tina Thompson, who had 31 points and 10 boards.

Houston got the win despite failing to get a single field goal in the final 11 minutes. After the game, the Comets felt they owed their fans an apology for their second-half play.

"Our fans have been very loyal all season long," Sheryl Swoopes said. "It's disappointing to us to come out and, even if we don't win, play without the heart and passion, then I think it's disappointing to us because that's what the fans have come out to see."
