The Liberty have been all over the place this season. They’ve had some convincing wins and deflating losses. New York had looked better of late, despite Leonie Fiebich and Satou Sabally remaining out with injuries. Prior to Tuesday’s 106-92 loss to the Fever, the Liberty had won seven of eight games and were knocking on the door of home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
