Why can't these games by on normal channels ? I'm a day late posting this.
Sparks still not playing well, but either they played great D in Q2 or ATL just
sucked on O. 4 players in DFs with Nneka getting th DD. Sparks still having
the same problems as usual with TOs/PFs/ORBs. 74-68 Sparks win by 6.
