S/U the Lynx with a fit roster are much better across the court than the Sun. As Wagers said, Sun in a bad schedule spot and they are 1-4 S/U recently. Lynx 5-0 S/U. Brunson has had some game time now and I think the Lynx win by at least 7 points in this game. Sun are going to be missing Hightower still and with a fit roster now, the Lynx bench is also deeper obviously. IMO 83-76 Lynx win.
Here is what Wagers posted as well under WNBA Saturday thread
Minn -4.5 5 bags I think Cherly Reeve is a great coach and will have the team dialed the rest of the year seeing Phx do what they do, Conn is victim of a terrible schedule having played 6 of last 7 on the road and now a brief stop at home to change underwear and then back on the road for 4 of their next 5, really unfair if you think about it...clincher for me is that Minn defense is rounding into form and defense travels, Conn kept it close 1st meeting but i think this one is done early 84-70 Minn

Minnesota with Augustus and Brunson back is a championship level team. Deep bench will likely come into play. I try not to mess with laying chalk on teams on the road. Will likely play the Minnesota ML to win a couple units.
Atlanta/Washington:
I'm a big Washington fan, but the Dream have the most talent in the East, just depends on whether they show up. With the recent losses, especially to Chicago at home, I do think the Dream show up for this game. One thing about the Dream, they are the best rebounding team in the East, which mitigates the rebounding advantage the Mystics usually have. I will probably play Atl by halves, double up on the 2nd half if 1st half loses.
Sky/Tulsa:
Potential let down spot for the Sky. As with every Tulsa game, I do think we get at least ONE good half from Tulsa (down by double digits at half in Wash, almost come back and win it; game before that, down by 7 at half, win the game outright; game before that, down by one at half, lose the game ATS to Minny). I also think that the Sky's lack of a bench will play into it. I definitely lean Tulsa ML, but will play heavy on the Tulsa 1st half, and even heavier on the 2nd half if they are down at half.

Great insight Ash...
It is hard to go against the Dream but we can't forget the absence of coach Coops again. Not sure when he is due back but since he has not been on the sidelines the Dream are 0-3 S/U and now face a Mystics team that have powered themselves to 1st ranking in the East on Power rankings which is very surprising.

My only concern for lnyx is they have phoenix next potential look ahead spot
Its at least 4 days away so I don't think that will be an issue.
Lynx to start a roadie of 2 or more games this season and last have beaten Stars (by 8), Sparks (by 17) this season and last they beat Shock (by 9), Fever (by 7), lost to Dream (by 15) and beat Storm (by 15). So they are 5-1 S/U when starting a road trip of 2 or more games over the past 2 seasons. I will take those odds because the Sun did not look good recently against weaker opposition than the Lynx.

morning boys, every game went under yesterday and I look for that trend to continue for the most part but 1 game that really sticks out to me is Chi/Tulsa. Chi is quietly sneaking into the mix coming off 2 wins I don't see a let down in this spot (sorry Ash) as I think this is the game where they can let it fly as their defense is coming together having held 5 of their last 6 opponents well below their season averages, Fowles can get a defensive stop or key rebound at the right time whereas Tulsa is hard pressed to do the same, they look to exact revenge against Tulsa who stole a game earlier this season...it's funny but Chi is playing their best ball of the year right now under the radar and are catching Tulsa off a big home win vs. SA then a heartbreaking 2pt loss @ SA then a hard fought come from behind close loss @Wash that miraculously stayed under, I'm not sure they have enough defensively in their tank to handle a playoff hungry Sky team all 4 qtrs...this reminds me a lot of that July 1 game where Chi went to LA and despite 6 turnovers in the 2nd qtr still managed to put up 90pts in a big 90-83 win, I think Tulsa off an unsuccessful road trip is the perfect spot for the playground ballers of Chi like Faulkner, Prince and Young to get out and run go off a little bit 89-83 Chi Chi +2 5 bags Chi TT over 80.5 3 bags
I've already got my Minn bet in and I'll just be a fan of the Atl/Wash game, that should be a doozy, GL today

Yeah. Have Minny ML as well. SW, my gut feeling on the game is that Chicago will punch them in the mouth out of the gate and I'm going to be laying some stacks on Tulsa 2nd half to come back some, maybe not all, as Chicago fades late. I don't think much of Pokey as a coach given how much Chicago seems to struggle in the 3rd quarter of games (isn't that what halftime adjustments are for?). Just keep hoping that Tulsa will get it together for a full game.

Tomorrow I already lean Fever ATS and may sprinkle some on the ML. Why? here is why
Sparks after a road game this season and playing at home after that road game/trip
0-6 S/U
Lost to Mercury by 5 after 2 games on road
Lost to Minny by 13 after 3 games on road
Lost to Minny by 17 after 2 games on road
Lost to Sky by 7 after 1 game on road
Lost to Mercury by 5 after 1 game on road (Seattle)
Lost to Mystics by 4 after 4 games on road
I know they have lost to Minny x 2 and Mercury x 2 in this 0-6 but still, they lost to the Mystics and Sky (without EDD and VDS) so can they cover the -5.5 vs the Fever?
