LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[BC867]

Let's hope that the elimination game is an illumination game for our Mercury.

DT is 13-1 in elimination games.

Sunshine, bright lights and happiness. Go for it, ladies!

 

[BC867]

Skylar is in the lineup, following a minor injury in the last game.

 

[thirty-two]

Poor start. Defense needs to play better.

 

[BC867]

The Mercury are rested and look rusty. The Mystics look in the groove.

And DT is missing her shots.

Washington leads 16-9 with 4 minutes to go in the quarter. But, it's early!

 

[BC867]

25- 16 Washington at the end of the 1st quarter.

DT gets her first points during the last few seconds.

If she got off to a fast start and we were losing,
that would not be a good sign.

 

[BC867]

At the 7-minute mark of the 2nd quarter,
the Mercury comes back to tie it up.

 

[thirty-two]

Peddy comes in and injects some life, we are back in it

 

[thirty-two]

Poor officiating, let them play refs.

 

[BC867]

The Mystics open up a 37-31 lead with 3 minutes to go in the half.

 

[BC867]

Leilani Mitchell, whom I liked as a member of the Mercury,
the smallest player on the court, is killing us.

Washington is playing their third game in four nights.

We're down 46-35 at the half. With the fatigue factor
probable for Mystics and, hey, we have Diana Taurasi,
I see a win coming for the Mercury.

And Sandy reamed her team during a timeout.

 

[thirty-two]

Damn, we hit some shots this quarter but unfortunately Washington has been hotter. Still down by 11.

 

[BC867]

Hmmm. D gets hot but, at the end of the 3rd quarter,
Washington has built the lead back up to 11, 70-59.

 

[thirty-two]

Nice run there, keep the pedal to the metal, ladies. Washington needs to miss their damn shots, good lord

 

[BC867]

Led by Diana, it is now a 1-point game.

DT has been toying with them.

 

[thirty-two]

1 pt game!!!

 

[BC867]

And the Suns take their first lead of the game at the 4:45 mark of the 4th quarter.


Another bucket and it is now 78-73 Mercury. A 17-0 run for the Mercury.

 

[thirty-two]

Mercury up by 5!! What a freaking run!!

 

[BC867]

Tied at 2:44.

Leilani Mitchell is still leading the way for Washington.

 

[thirty-two]

HORRIBLE offensive foul called on Turner. Completely changed the momentum. Tie game.

 

[thirty-two]

Man Leilani has been daggers tonight.

 

[BC867]

Petty with a steal, but the Mercury turn it over.

Up by 1 with 53 seconds to go.
