Orlando struggled with turnovers and defensive breakdowns in a loss to Miami. By SHANNON ROSE SENTINEL STAFF WRITER It would be easy to focus on the free throws the Miracle chucked in the final seconds in their 69-65 loss to the Miami Sol Saturday at TD Waterhouse Centre.

But there were plenty of plays, shots and rebounds Orlando didn't execute earlier in the game that were the difference as another winnable game slipped away. "We made some mental breakdowns," Coach Dee Brown said. "We can't make turnovers or have defensive breakdowns." Orlando had a chance to tie the game when Shannon "Pee Wee" Johnson was fouled on a 3-point shot with 10.8 seconds to go and Miami leading 67-64. Her first two free throws bounced off the back of the rim. Though she hit the third attempt, the Sol closed the game on a pair of free throws by Betty Lennox.

Johnson, who missed the previous five days because of her grandmother's death, hadn't been on the court since her 35-point performance against the Cleveland Rockers on June 8. She didn't practice all week. Johnson still scored a team-high 16 points and had three assists. Katie Douglas added 10 points and six rebounds. The Miracle (3-3) begin a three-game road tripTuesday in New York.

Sheri Sam led Miami with 17 points. The Sol, which brought six buses full of fans, opened up the second half with a 9-2 run and milked the lead for the next 10 minutes. Miami took a 52-40 lead off back-to-back steals and lay-ups by Claudia Neves and Vanessa Nygaard. "We knew that they like the p0Up0n Lb ft 3m Tfo IPM HiohlnnrU FL-Residents nigniand- $26.

'We tried to control that as much as possible." The Miracle, down 29-27 at half, were frustrated as they watched shots and layups roll off the rim. But the defense responded, making the key stops as the offense warmed up. Orlando went on a 14-4 run, closing the gap to a 2-point Miami lead. Johnson's basket trimmed Miami's lead to 58-56, but Nygaard answered, hitting a wide-open 3-pointer to put the Sol ahead 61-56 with 1:10 remaining.

"The play that killed us was Nygaard shooting that 3," Brown said. 'We had a two-possession game instead of a one."

Gruden, who returned to the field this season after four years as the franchise's head coach, was 24-for-40 for 303 yards in the game at Nassau Coliseum. Siaha Burley had 11 receptions and four touchdowns for Orlando (4-5). Former New York Giants and Florida State quarterback Danny Kanell was 12-for-21 for 157 yards with three touchdowns for New York (2-7). The Predators sacked Kanell New York is hoping to get a boost from quarterback Aaron Garcia, who led the Dragons to the playoffs a year ago by throwing for a league-record 1 04 touchdown passes. Garcia was released by the San Francisco 49ers Thursday.

He watched most of Saturday's game from the owner's box. "I'm really excited to be back in New York," Garcia said. "I had to give it a shot with the 49ers. And it's too bad that it didn't work out for me." Garcia, 31, was released after the 49ers traded for Dolphins quarterback Cade McNown to serve as a backup for starter Jeff Garcia. The Predators have won three of their past four games and have five games left in the regular season.

They return home for a game against Toronto at 7:30 p.m. Friday. Newsday, a Tribune Publishing newspaper, contributed to this report.
