The Minnesota Lynx downed the L.A. Sparks 80-79 Sunday to win the Western Conference Finals 2 games to none.  Candice Parker made a late 3-pointer from 30 feet away before Monica Wright responded with a 3-pointer of her own to put the Lynx back on top.  Alana Beard missed a 16-foot shot at the buzzer that would have won the game for L.A.

Seimone Augustus led the Lynx with 21 points, Maya Moore added 20 points and Lindsay Whalen chipped in 17.  The Lynx go back to the WNBA Finals and will play either Connecticut or Indiana.  Indiana plays at Connecticut in game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals tonight at 7pm.  Connecticut leads the series 1 game to none.
