Can it get any closer? The Mystics are in San Antonio today for a game against the Silver Stars at 8pm EDT. Both teams have 11-11 records, and each sits in 4th place in its conference. So tonight is a battle for a winning record and a further opportunity to solidify that last conference playoff spot. No pressure, Mystics. Just remember the Alamo; the visitors won there, too.

The game will be televised nationally on NBA TV. Folks in the DC area with Comcast Cable should look for the game on Comcast Sports Net, which is broadcasting the game and will likely black it out on NBA TV here.
