MINNESOTA LYNX@INDIANA FEVER
Now we all have seen what the Indiana Fever are capable and it is no question that this team has heart and Catchings is probably the best player out on the court at the moment. With any smaller team the pressure and fatigue of constantly having to outrun and outwork a bigger and more talented team eventually catches up and you will be run out the gym.
Game 3 is obviously the pivotal game and we must take the opportunity to punish the Lynx line. In gambling it is not often you get a better team who at the start of the season was favoured to win the championship at around (-200) laying only 3 points against a clearly less skilled opponent.
It is given the Fever will not lay down and get pushed over but the amount of effort they exerted in game 2 only to come out with a 12 point loss says a lot. You can only rely on Catchings so much to score in the half court set, the loss of Douglas has pushed other role players to step up and whilst the likes of Larkins and Phillips have contributed, the bench has not nearly done enough to push this team to a W.
The keys to this game for the Lynx are to limit turnovers and reduce the amount of transition baskets from the smaller and quicker fever guards. Lindsey Whalen showed last game why she is a USA point guard and look for her to have an enormous say in the outcome of todays game.
This would normally be a 5 unit play but we must give ourselves the opportunity to respond if the Fever are able to ride the home crowd to cover the +3 points. Key to controlled gambling is to manage your bankroll wisely.
