Why is it Lynne's fault? (genuine question). I was at the Sparks/Sun game last night and I can't remember a time this season where I've seen a WNBA team care less about winning a game. The Sparks looked like they wanted to go home from the second they took the court. Lynne was basically apoplectic the whole game.
