[BC867]

Connecticut starts the 2nd half with a 7-0 run. That was to be expected.

I have faith that Sandy will not let it get out of hand.

 

[Ronin]

58-50 Mercury lead

 

[Ronin]

3 straight 3s for the sun

 

[Ronin]

Taurasi for 3

 

[Ronin]

Another three for the sun

 

[Ronin]

Sun getting to the line.

Get your focus back Mercury

 

[Ronin]

Lead blown

 

[BC867]

Bonner gives the Sun a 62-61 lead with less than a minute to go in the 3rd quarter.

 

[BC867]

Hey, they're playing right into the Mercury's hands.

As Sandy said, win the 1st and 4th quarters.

 

[1Sun]

Should we just go ahead and rename Phoenix "Loserville"?

I have never seen sports in any single city in such a sorry state...

What a fantastic first half only to see it get bombed in the 3rd quarter. We need to keep cutting to the lane and making passes into our bigs. Kia Vaughn hasn’t been her normal self due to her knee today but we need her to hit a few shots here in the 4th. And of course we need Diana to do Diana things.

 

[thirty-two]

Turner has been a MONSTER on the boards today. Definitely one of the most underrated player on our team. If she could just develop her offensive game a bit more, then watch out.

 

[thirty-two]

DT to Breezy ALL DAY.

 

[thirty-two]

Huge steals by Peddy. Wow. Mercury up 1

 

[BC867]

Skylar with a 3-point play gives Phoenix a 1-point lead.

Bonner follows with a 3-point play. Mercury down by 2
with 57 seconds left.

Vaughn ties it. But the Sun with another offensive rebound.
17 for the Sun.

 

[thirty-two]

Ugh, cmon refs

 

[Ronin]

Bryce Marsee

@brycemarsee

4th career double-double for Brianna Turner who has 10 points, 3 blocks and a career-high 18 rebounds. She's one board shy of matching the franchise record for rebounds in a game and two away from the first 20-rebound game in Merc history.

 

[thirty-two]

Another steal by Peddy!! Huge!!!

 

[BC867]

Mercury with a steal. Skylar with a layup.

Mercury up by 2.

 

[thirty-two]

Mercury up by 2 with 14 seconds left. Let’s gooooooooooo!

 

[thirty-two]

Of course Bonner nails that 3. Jesus Christ.

 

[BC867]

DeWanna gives the Sun a 1-point lead. Bonner fouls DT, but it is not called.

Skylar with a '3' ties the game, and it's overtime.

They're not putting a runner on 2B, are they?

Oh, that's MLB.
