ATS: Seattle Storm -10.5 (100)
LOSS for -5 unit(s)

Los Angeles Sparks at Seattle Storm

5 Unit Play.  #658.  Take the Seattle Storm -10.5 over LA Sparks (Friday @ 10pm est).  The Storm are one of the best teams historically in the WNBA in doing very well at home, having a faithful fan base and consequently winning home ballgames big.  This is why the spread in Seattle is always fairly large if not double-digit such as it is for this game.  Having said that, just take a look at what the Storm have done this year.  For starters, they come off a huge win on the road at Phoenix (which is why the line was Seattle +1 as 70% of the public got burned on the play.  This team at home has already defeated a decent Lynx team by 28 and the Monarchs by 10.  What is surpising is that this team held the Lynx to just 62 points - and considering the Lynx average over 80 ppg this is impressive.  I understand this is the Sparks - but this set of Sparks will not have Parker or Leslie suiting up.  This is why early on the Sparks are just 2-4.  Leslie is listed as day to day and even if she does play, I still think the Sparks likely get defeated by more than double-digits today.  Seattle always remembers their losses past or present and they have revenge from the last time these two teams met, a huge home court advantage, a banged up Sparks team that just comes off a home win and the Sparks have struggled on the road going 0-4 as this team averages just 69ppg and they will struggle imo against a Seattle team that has dropped 90 points in both of their last two games.  Too many options for Seattle in this contest as compared to the Sparks who have limited options due to their injuries. The Storm are no joke folks with Lauren Jackson, Swin Cash, Sue Bird and Tanisha Wright - this team has solid potential to continue piling on points with a decent bench as well.  For all these reasons and the fact the Storm are 5-0 ATS against the Western Conference of late and the Sparks are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games (not to mention likely to have a let down after their recent 20 point win), let's roll with the Storm tonight to cover the double-digit mark.

Good luck,

We realize that Atlanta is now 0-4 SU and ATS TY vs the Lynx, and now on the verge of elimination, after two consecutive 2H collapses in games one and two at Minny, but we’re still not convinced that Minny is the better of these two teams, and we doubt that those two come from ... read more
