Let’s go in chronological order as September got started, shall we?
Connecticut Sun 70, New York Liberty 65 — When you’re in seventh place in the standings late in the season and you’re playing the last place team in the league, then you need to get the win. That’s what Connecticut did here.
However, it was about as much as an adventure to get there as the final score indicates. An 18-8 lead at the end of the first quarter did not do the Sun the kind of favors that you would like it to do against the worst team in the league.
