What to watch for
The Mystics beat the Connecticut Sun yesterday
without their starting posts. Tomorrow night, any mistakes they made yesterday will get exploited. Washington will plays the Liberty for the third time this season and the second time in less than a week. And yes, the Mystics are back in New York City to play the Liberty where the city as a whole (though Brooklyn, the borough where the Libs play may be a little less enthusiastic) is still in euphoria over the New York Knicks’ NBA championship.
Hopefully Washington will make tomorrow a more interesting game than last Sunday. Otherwise, this game will be yet another uphill battle.
