Definitely mate.. But I am cautious of OT in this game. These 2 teams are very even across the court and i wouldn't be surprised to see an OT game eventually in this series. The total has been dropped from Game 4 as that was around 160 and I expect every single shot to be contested in this game. Only thing is, I expect plenty of body contact as well so free throws may be high in this game as well. Expect the Sparks to drive to the hoop more in this game as the only one who did it in game 4 was Chelsea Gray and thats not good enough especially when you have the likes of Parker and Nneka on your team.

I think this is an automatic UNDER play WNBA Finals deciding game 5 no matter who is playing. Coming off 2 overs sweetens the pot even more as the Man can't lower the total to where it should be for this type of game 152-154, so we get the bonus points going our way in case of some cheap fouling late. Add in the fact that you have defensive minded Agler for LA who will value every possession against his mirror image in Reeves for Minn and you have a recipe for a 79-71 game with Garnett and Ogwumike defending the rim. I think it would take some sort of extreme circumstances like a 53pt 4th qtr of 33-43 combined FT for this to go over. It reminds me of the Cavs low scoring closeout win over the Warriors. I gotta bet the under on principal alone as rims will get tight. and 19-17 qtrs will be the norm.
