Feeling Feverish

The parade of returning Olympic Gold Medalists continues at the Phone Booth when the Mystics meet Tamika Catchings and the Indiana Fever tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 PM.

The Fever are currently hanging precariously onto the 4th and final playoff spot in the East, with the Chicago Sky narrowing the gap, now just 2 games behind. (The Sky stunned Detroit Sunday night, winning a one point overtime thriller.)

The last two losses have dropped the Mystics to 3 games behind Indy. As we've previously noted, tomorrow night's game will result in a full game swing; the Mystics will either pull a full game closer to Indy or drop to 4 games behind the Fever. So obviously, this is a "must win" to keep any slim hope of a playoff appearance alive for the Mystics.
