Phoenix Mercury Tickets

The Phoenix Mercury showed a drastic decline in 1999, failing to maintain the high bar they had set for themselves in the past. They missed the playoffs and it was downhill from then on. In 2000, they were defeated by the Los Angeles Sparks and the team completely dismantled, failing to make the playoffs for a long time. There were many reasons behind the team's sudden downfall; some leading players left due to retirement and trade issues, and the team's coaches changed frequently, adding to the instability. However, after a few years of darkness, former coach Paul Westhead came as a guiding light for the Phoenix Mercury in 2006 and nudged them in the right direction. That year, they had a winning record of 18-16 and were in the playoffs all year. In 2007, the team's performance showed redeeming qualities that put them back at the top. They set their best record in franchise history at 23-11 and beat the Seattle Storm in the playoffs. They also defeated the San Antonio Silver Stars, and then faced the 2006 defending champions, the Detroit Shock, showing them they were here to stay. They defeated them 2-1, then the Los Angeles Sparks 2-1, and finally the Indiana Fever 3-2.

In 2011, the team entered the All-Star Break with a 10-5 record and gained the third seed in the 2011 WNBA playoffs. They outsmarted the Seattle Storm but lost to the Minnesota Lynx. The Phoenix Mercury have two championships (2007 and 2009) and three Conference titles (1998, 2007 and 2009) to their credit. Hall of Famers Nancy Lieberman and Cheryl Miller, and All-Stars Diana Taurasi, Penny Taylor, Adrian Williams, Brandy Reed, Michelle Timms and Candice Dupree have all helped the team reach professional heights.
