The playoff race continues

Today's game results:

The Liberty ended the Sun's winning streak at six, with an 82-70 win.

The Mercury used a fourth quarter push to down the Mystics, 89-79.

The Lynx thrashed the Fever, 111-52. It was the largest winning margin in league history.

A short time ago, the Sparks won a double-overtime battle with the Sky, 115-106. Five in double figures on each team, and three with double-doubles from Los Angeles while Chicago had two dub-dubs. Insane.
