The Storm just recently defeated the LA Sparks in Game 2 of the first round series in the 2010 playoffs. They completed the sweep of the Sparks 2-0, winning one game at home and today's game on the road. They got off to a rough start, trailing 4-12 just after a complete minutes in the 1st, but stormed back to take the lead going into halftime. The second half was great basketball by the Storm. In the third quarter the three's were flying and swishing. They made 7 of 8 three's in the third during the scoring run by the Storm. Swin Cash was nailing three's from left to right, Lauren make a three, Vesela, and even Sue started hitting them in the fourth quarter to end the game. The Storm were making all the right adjustments and nailing all the big shots to close out the series on the road.
Next up for the Storm is the Conference Finals against the Phoenix Mercury, who just swept the San Antonio Silver Stars on the road as well. Phoenix likes to get out and run, so it will be a test to see if the Storm can match their agility on the court. They best Phoenix in every game in the regular season, but have had some very close games this year. With Diana and the team finally finding their groove halfway through the season after losing Cappie Pondexter to New York before the season, they will be a tough team to beat. Especially since the stakes are so high. I know KeyArena will be loud and rocking when Phoenix comes to play against the Storm and so the Storm will just have to give the crowd all they got. This will be a very fun series to watch, very high-paced and some very good match-ups on the court. I can't wait to see it all go down. What about you?
