Angel McCoughtry (right) and the Atlanta Dream had Tamika Catchings and the Indiana Fever grasping at thin air on Tuesday night as the Dream defeated the Fever 83-67 at Conseco Fieldhouse to secure the Eastern Conference crown and book passage into the 2011 WNBA Finals vs. the Western Conference champion Minnesota Lynx.

McCoughtry, the second leading scorer in the league this season, poured in a game high 26 points for the Dream on 7-for-10 shooting from the field and 11 points from the free-throw line, while chipping in with eight rebounds, four steals and two blocked shots on the night.
