Liberty struggle late and lose a close one to the Chicago Sky

Punch, counterpunch, punch, counterpunch, and then the final punch. Basketball is a lot like boxing in that it’s a back and forth affair for much of the night before one big swing at the end decides it. In the end, you hope to be the one that’s delivering the final blow to your opposition.

On Friday night, the New York Liberty took a visit to the Midwest to face the Chicago Sky. The team had a chance to come away with the win late, but some familiar bugaboos did them in once again as the Sky came away with a gritty 89-81 victory.
