So it's the MVP against the Defensive Player of the Year, in Tamika Catchings.

Catchings and Indiana are up 2-1 in the 5 game series, winning yesterdays game by a head butt! (Taurasi speared Douglas coming back on the court late in the game, resulting in a technical, making the 1 point win possible)

Wed. night's game is gonna be good. 6:30 on EXPN2. It's win or go home for Phoenix.
