5u 0-0
4u 0-0
3u 0-0
2u 0-0
1u 0-0
 CONNECTICUT +1 ( 3 units )
The oddsmakers got the wrong side favorite in this game. Now this line could reverse by game time and the the Sun might end up being the favorite, but for now I'm playing Connecticut for 3units, and this will be my largest wager of the day.
The Sun have the edge on every player matchup except for Pondexter over Montgomerry and I mean slight edge. It's Renee's 5th season and her productivity has gone up each consecutive year. Connecticut beat them 3 out of 4 last year and opened this campaign with a 96-81 Pre season win back on May 7. By the way Tina Charles sat out that game and the Liberty played most of their starters. Asjha Jones is coming off a Woman's Euro League MVP this past winter. The Sun are loaded and ready. These teams play again tomorrow and win or lost the Sun will be at least a 6 point favorite in that game if not higher. I'd much rather take the smaller price today and the Sun certainly need to make a statement on the road.
ATLANTA +6.5 ( 2 units )
I thought this line should of been 5 or 5.5. This should be what I consider a feel out game. Yes DeSouza is out for the Dream, but they got plenty of girls that can score and Coach Meadors had made it a point to focus on defense this year.
CHICAGO -4 ( 1 unit )
I hate to lay points on the road but this team did so much in the off season to improve it's roster. The depth and experience of this team cannot be overlooked. The Sky lost a lot of close games last season many of which they lead going into the 4th quarter and this is why the spent the money and filled their roster with talent. Taking a look at the Mystic. Well this team is heading in a complete different direction they signed 9 new players to their roster and it will take a while for the team to develop some chemistry. Just ask Tulsa. FINAL SCORE CHI 75 WASH 65
TULSA +8.5 ( 1 unit )
I don't think the Silver Stars should be laying 8.5 points on the road in their first game of the season. It's easy to look at Tulsa's 3-31 SU record last season and say yes this team is bad. However they did have a good draft and improved their roster. One of the players they picked up in the 2nd round is Guard Riquana Williams out of Miami who I thought was a steal. She's gonna team up with Latta and this makes for a good young backcourt.
 GOOD LUCK

Anyone else is non-significant and I'm not sure because all 12 teams filled the 11 woman roster last week.

Did they really play at MSG, instead of their usual venue?

prior to tipoff, *tomorrow's game* line was -8.0
Do oddmakers pay much attention to how this game went down? Is it more likely to reopen at -7.5 (because NY kept it close throughout the entire game) or -8.5 (because the loss was demoralizing, and the Sun is just so much better on home turf, now with the confidence to blow them out)?
I'm guessing it opens -7.5, any interest in that?

 Could of easily went 3-1 or even 4-0.
Tulsa was the right side 8-0 run for San Antonio in the last minute via fouls tough loss.
