The Chicago Sky had been here before.
Less than a week ago, they watched the New York Liberty thunder to a comeback win on the Sky’s home court in Game 1 of the first-round WNBA playoff series. The loss sparked fury in the Sky’s veteran core, which blamed the scoreless final minutes on a mental panic, then responded with a 38-point blowout victory in Game 2.
The Sky returned to the same scene Tuesday night, the Liberty carving a double-digit lead to three points with 9:02 to play.
