YTD: 33-16
Very quiet in here today. We have 2 solid games which will have massive implications on the standings. Mercury lose, they drop to 8th and the Aces make ground. Liberty lose, they will almost be eliminated statistically from the playoffs. Sun win, they could gain ground on the teams above them and really start to push ahead especially with their schedule. Prince and Zellous are both out tonight for this game vs the Sun. Big loss for NY missing Zellous, not so big missing Prince as they have survived without her. These 2 teams played just recently with the Liberty some how sneaking out a win on the road. We now get a higher line and higher total on this game even though the Liberty won and the game went under by several points. The Sun need wins and they need to band together and get back to that amazing form they had in the first few games of the season. Its crazy to think what 2 months can do in a league. Opening day, Sun were laying -15.5 to the Aces (Aces were missing key players) and now we get the Sun laying -11.5 to the Liberty who were meant to be a playoff contender but Katie Smith isn't the right fit for this team. Liberty's season is almost over, Sun still have some fight in them and given the fact that the last game barely got over 150 and now we get a higher total line, I expect a fast flowing game.
New York Liberty @ Connecticut Sun: Over 165.5
