Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Thursday, May 24, 2007

New York wins the year's first regular season day game, defeating the Mystics; Erin Thorn cans 4 of 6 trey attempts. (More coverage tomorrow, we expect.)

Just after the game, Washington center Chas Melvin learned she'd been traded to Chicago in exchange for scorer Mo Currie. "I'm OK. I'm a professional," Melvin claims.

Coach Adubato says Nakia Sanford will be Washington's starting center; the trade also reunites Currie with Duke teammate Beard, and gives Mo the chance to play where she grew up.
