New York @ Chicago picks

Taking a look back at last season, the New York Liberty managed to skate by the Chicago Sky with victories in 3 out of the 4 regular season meetings that took place. All four matchups were decided by double-digit margins and that's exactly where I feel comfortable in laying the points with New York. Don't get me wrong, I don't see the Sky coming out defeated from the jump. They will be in front of their home crowd with a new coach and some new additions for the first time this season. Points are to be proven especially after shooting a dismal 29.1 percent against the Fever. That said, I see a similar rhythm to what the Liberty saw from the Aces last week, spurts from the Sky to keep them close throughout the game. But the Liberty are more experienced and have had the Sky's number for quite some time now. Take the Liberty to cover in this one.
