Its just the ability to play with poise down the stretch.The teams traded baskets and Minnesota led 79-77. Parker was called for a shooting foul on Rebekkah Brunson, who made both free throws for an 81-77 lead. Before Parker fouled Brunson, it appeared that Minnesota hadnt gotten the ball across halfcourt in time to avoid an 8-second violation. Replays suggested the ball was still in the backcourt when the shot clock was at 16.I think they forgot they had to get the ball over the line, Toliver said. But thats life. We cant leave it up to the officials to determine a series. We have to go take it.With 42 seconds left, Whalen lost the ball to Ogwumike. At the Sparks end, Brunson stole it from Parker, who ended up getting whistled for the foul.I had it at one point and after that I didnt see what happened because I think I was on the floor, Whalen said. It was kind of a wild play.Moore stole an inbounds pass and Ogwumike fouled her with 4 seconds left. Moore made both to close out the win, missing just one of her 12 free throw attempts.We fought today, Ogwumike said. When it comes to focus and awareness, we can sharpen up there. Were going to fight again.The Lynx scored six in a row to take their largest lead, 52-42, early in the third, which ended in a 3-point contest.
