***********
Wooo! The Storm worked out some awesome Key Arena mojo, holding the SpOrks to just 50 points with no person in their roster over 11 points (LL with 11, CP3 with 10, DMJ with 11). The Storm, on the other hand, got another solid game from Sue Bird (20 points, 4 rebounds, 3 assists) and Shery Swoopes (16 points, 4 steals).
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to wake up for this game (waaaah) and I dunno if the dotcom webcast~ed this game. Haaay. But it’s all good, it’s all good.

Ow, WTF

My happiness does not depend on whether the Storm wins at Sta(b)les Center today. I repeat, My happiness does not depend on whether the Storm wins at Sta(b)les Center today.

I was telling that to myself when I woke up this morning. And well, with that in mind, why am I so *ugh* freakin’ irritated and annoyed and owwww what the hell!

The story of the game is L.A.’s usually unreliable guards bringing it big time AND the Tanisha Wright (G SEA) that I was harping on about last season reappeared! Talk about those turnovers. Maaaaan, what a major choker. She better redeem herself in Game 2 or else…

On second thought, Sue might have just been sucessful as a one-woman-wrecking crew. Seriously. If not for those bloody turnovers and those breaks that we didn’t capitalize on, we coulda won this game.

But oh well, it’s over. I think we were down 17 at some point, then chipped away at the lead til we got it down to 6, and then the breaks went in favor of L.A. and then it was over. Bloody hell, the game was over.

Argh.

Get back to Key Arena, Stormies. And play better next time. And please, Brian Agler, sit Tanisha Wright when she’s fumbling passes and making sloppy plays. Srsly.
