Phoenix at Indiana: indications off: this was a surprise, and a noteworthy win by Indiana. Box Score

Sacramento at Seattle: indications on: Sac beat the Juggernaut. Quite logical actually. Box Score

Houston at San Antonio: indications on: mud pie in Houston's face as SA sweeps the regular season series. I've seen Sheryl Swoopes singlehandedly determine Houston's post-season placement. Let's see if she stirs around SA in the first round this year ((big) if both teams make the playoffs.) Box Score

New York at Los Angeles: indications on: this was difficult: best team in the West vs the East's cellar. Box Score

July 19th

Phoenix at Washington: indications on: Phoenix. Box Score

Charlotte at Detroit: indications off: oops, Detroit. Not. Box Score

Chicago at Minnesota: indications on: Minn. Box Score

July 20th

Seattle at Charlotte: indications off: on a back-to-back for Charlotte, they topped the Juggernaut! Box Score

New York at Sacramento: indications on: NY had no chance. Box Score

Chicago at Connecticut: indications on: Chi had no chance. Box Score

Minnesota at Houston: indications off: I thought it was turnovers at crucial moments by Minn (17 with 19 points off turnovers, Hou 18 with 14 points off), abysmally poor offensive rebounding by Minn (only 6 to Hou's 27 defensive rebounds; Hou had 9 offensive rebounds to Minn 19 defensive rebounds (hey, more makes create less opportunities for rebounds in the first place)), and horrific shooting in general by Minn (put in 21 of 56 shots with Hou dropping in a signicant (and determinative) 38% more at 29 of 58.) But the recap credited it all to Houston's defense. What I saw was what Minn didn't do that was well within reasonable expectations for the much talent on that team, but if the hommies want to believe defense, so be it.
