WNBA morning

Sparks Coach Joe Bryant flipped the lineup last night in his team's game against San Antonio, but Los Angeles still lost, 79-69. I haven't seen that much frustration in a while.

It has to be some kind of chemistry/psychological/we're-not-clicking thing, because the talent is there. The Sparks have a week to figure it out before their next game July 26, in Minnesota.

Portland State Coach Sherri Murrell is still the only openly-gay Division I basketball coach.
