[OneTrickPony]

Who's been shutting Catch down...Elena?

 

[pksundevil]

Sky just appear to want this more. Up by 12 with 7:18 to go.

 

[RadyLady]

Chicago is playing with a lot of heart......

 

[RadyLady]

Who's been shutting Catch down...Elena?

Lots of switches....and she has been out for a bit...Coleman makes a 2 and is fouled, makes the shot, score is 59 - 50
Turnover Sky, Indiana has the ball

 

[pksundevil]

Indiana can't win if they can't score....

 

[calpedaler]

I thought it was a foul if you cleared space with your elbow. I guess not for Catchings and Coleman.

 

[RadyLady]

Missed shot, back to Chicago, who is fighting for each rebound, and we have another foul, this time on Vandersloot.

Catch gets her pocket picked, and Indiana tries to return the favor on the Sky resulting in the ball going out of bounds, Time out.

9 point lead

5 and a half to go

Sky just appear to want this more. Up by 12 with 7:18 to go.

Just my own idiosyncrasy, and no offense to you at all, but do you really believe that Indiana just doesn't want to win as much as Chicago does? I simply do not believe that and really hate it when announcers use that as an explanation on TV. So UCONN won the NC last year because they wanted it more than ND? How about UCONN played better, an was better.

So far Chicago is playing better. Indiana has about 6 minutes to make up a 9 point deficit.

 

[RadyLady]

Indiana can't win if they can't score....

Ya can't win if you don't play.....o wait....

 

[RadyLady]

I thought it was a foul if you cleared space with your elbow. I guess not for Catchings and Coleman.

Angles angles, angles. I have learned that what looks or doesn't look like a foul from one perspective, isn't/is a foul from another view.

 

[RadyLady]

Quigley to Fowles for 2. Fowles looking good. Chicago up by 11.

Defensive 3 second call on the Sky...oops January hits the free throw

 

[RadyLady]

Catch is not having a great game....1 - 8. Well, you can have a bad game, no matter how good you are....


Coleman swipes the ball from Quigley and then gets called for an offensive foul. I think that if that swinging arm of hers made contact, it would be a flagrant. She's lucky it didn't.

Time out.

Both definitely use the bows.

 

[RadyLady]

Score is 61 - 51 Chicago, with 4:18 left in the game.

here we go....

 

[RadyLady]

Elena has played only just over 3 minutes this half.

Nice lob to Sylvia from Quigley and the ball is knocked out by Indiana.

Quigley hits a 3!!!

 

[RadyLady]

64 - 51 3:34 to go with Zellous shooting free throws...makes just 1

 

[OneTrickPony]

Slipping away for the Fever...or, should I say, Fever subsiding...

 

[RadyLady]

Again Quigley to Fowles via bullett pass, she misses, Breeland cleans up.

On the other end, Young fouls Catch, in the bonus, she will shoot 2.

I like these announcers....just thought I would throw that in.

Catch makes both 66 - 54

Indiana is trying to keep Big Syl out of the paint and gets fouled, Quigley loses the ball on a steal by Indiana, and on the other end, January is fouled and now is shooting 2.

Time out

66 - 55 Chicago

2:38 left to go.

Lots of time. Chicago has got to stop fouling and stopping the clock if they want to win

 

[RadyLady]

January makes the second free throw...
Full court press by Indiana.....who has one foul to give and they do with 5 seconds left on the clock....
ok

They get the ball inside to Fowles on yet another bullet pass who is then fouled.

2:06 to play.

She makes one of two

Score is 67 - 56

 

[RadyLady]

Catch gets a bucket on the other end, and Prince misses her shot and gets fouled and now Lin Dunn gets T'ed up...

Quigley shooting...now Young...

70-58

1:39 to go

 

[RadyLady]

Fowles picks up her fourth...1:27 to go

Christmas makes both foul shots....

'Sloot calls a time out as she gets trapped, 1:23 to go......10 point game.

 

[RadyLady]

Here we go....
I expect a quick foul......

 

[RadyLady]

and they don't foul right away...'Sloot drives to the basket and gets fouled...1:10 left to go

'Sloot makes both, lead to 12

 

[RadyLady]

January answers on the other end....

Wow - Prince double dribbles and no call.....wow...Quigley makes a 3. She has 24 points. It's gotta be over for Indiana and Lin Dunn....
