Lynx rally to beat Sparks, 92-84

Tonight's match up featured the defending champs Lynx vs. the "for real" Sparks:

The Lynx won their first two games of this season easily, by 22 and 18 points. But neither of those early opponents had the firepower of the Los Angeles Sparks.

The defending WNBA champions, trailing by as many as nine points, had to rally to beat Los Angeles 92-84 on Thursday night at Target Center before an announced crowd of 7,923.


Will we see these two teams in the Western Conference Finals this fall?
