Tulsa is not packing in the season having played hard the last two games. They lost 11 to this San Antonio squad (despite being down by 24 early) and a won over Phoenix, 92-84. They have a winning spread record the last seven games, including straight up wins over Atlanta (84-80) and Los Angeles (99-85) as a dog of +12 and +9.5 each time. It's not surprising as head coach Gary Kloppenburg said he wants the Shock to build momentum for next year and the Tulsa Shock players have been speaking about forging a new beginning over the final two weeks of their WNBA season. Even in the loss to this San Antonio team two games ago, the Shock rallied to put itself back in the game. Tulsa started the third quarter with a 23-6 surge, pulling to within 57-50. They didn't quit, rallying from a 24-point deficit, then rolled over the Phoenix Mercury, 92-84, on Friday. Tulsa took advantage of 21 Phoenix turnovers, converting them into 25 points, seven of them in the final period. They take on a San Antonio team that is on a 2-5 straight up and spread run, as well as 3-7 ATS overall. Play Tulsa!
