Game picks for today
Wednesday 23 June 2004
Current record: 43-26 (three days perfect, nine on the trot - I think that will end today)
Detroit 70 Washington 65
Detroit are looking vulnerable but I don't Washington has the post game to really exploit it. I think Tillis and the Detroit bench will step up.
New York 72 Los Angeles 66
The team everyone loves to hate comes to MSG and it's the perfect opportunity for the Libs to break their losing streak. LL will do everything again but will the rest of the Sparks show up? I think the Libs' D will restrict the Sparks enough and they muster up enough offence to get over the line.
Phoenix 78 Minnesota 65
Penny is back! Hopefully the Merc go with their bigger lineup tonight - put Adrian on Ohlde and Plenette on Tamika and have Penny at her rightful spot at the 3. Both teams can be inconsistent but I think the home game and revenge factors will get the Merc over the line.
Seattle 74 Houston 64
Who can stop a streaking Seattle? Sheryl nearly single handedly did down in Houston but just came up short and I don't think things are about to change up at Key Arena. Snow and Holland-Corn will need to come up big but with no TT to stop LJ and Seattle's balanced offence, I think a Comets win isn't on the cards.
Connecticut 69 Indiana 65
Just a hunch I have - the amorphous blob that is the East is a fun place to be in. The Sun have had a couple of close calls so far - mainly not in their favour but I think it will go their way this time.
