Not sure how we’ll see a much different game on Monday, despite the Shock having home-court advantage then.

And, of course, I was right. It wasn’t much different. Once again, it was a blowout. Errr ….
OK, well, I wasn’t exactly right. How about completely not right?

Yeah, it was a blowout, but by the Shock this time, not the Sparks. Detroit turned the tables and won 81-52 behind 27 points from Deanna Nolan and 17 from Katie Smith.
