Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Monday, October 04, 2004

Seattle once again let the Monarchs back in the game, but this time the Storm hung on. Even with the mask, Sue Bird was masterful again.

"She feels this," coach Donovan said of Bird's performance. "She feels where we're at. She feels an opportunity and she doesn't want to let it slip away."

Sue's partner in crime had another big night as well. The Monarchs' Big Three had a great Game 1, but last night they were all outplayed by Lauren Jackson.

Sacto will try to get off to a better start tomorrow. Said Ticha Penicheiro: "It's all tied up, 1-1. We've been here before. We know what we need to do."
