Im  going to try and post all my wnba plays in a single thread

Minnesota Lynx/Chicago Sky Under 152.5  Despite The Lynx being the best over team in the WNBA last season, and having the worst defense. The sky wants to play faster to improve , and brought in 5 new players and a new point guard. but the Lynx have overhauled the roster with 7 new players and a rookie point guard, and want to get better defensively. The Lynx coach resigned three days ago. The Sky are a scrappy, defensive team only averaging 69.5 ppg but they constantly pressured the basketball. These teams previous 2 meetings went  8-10 points under.  Loss, Even though its not quite halftime it was at 19 points total with 3 minutes left in the first quarter and its now 101 at halftime. The under is long gone

San antonio +2.  The Mercury play the Loyola marymount style of the Paul Westhead era. The silverstars have a third scorer and a post presence the Mercury just dont have.  The silverstars will have their best perimeter threat returning after missing last season with a knee injury. the mercury are one of the worst rebounding teams in the wnba.The silverstars can slow the game down just enough. The total of 163.5, Im going to pass on.  The Silverstars got tired and couldnt defend or make a shot, Mercury went on 25-8 run to close game and Loss  0-3 for the day

BetJamaica has San Antonio @ +4

I have a 3 team  4.5 point teaser going  Indiana @ pk/Lynx Under 157/ San Antonio +8.5  Another Loss

 Lynx +8.  I'll gladly take 8pts on the road, against a team flying home from Atlanta after a double OT game. The wnba shortened the rosters from 13 to 11. The Lynx like to play uptempo are going to push the pace against a tired team. Both teams played last night, Lynx won in a blowout and rested starters late, Fever lost in double OT on the road. Easy Easy Winner Lynx won by 22. Its nice to have one of these.  The over was 23-11 last season with the Minnesota Lynx and 2-0 this year a trend worth tracking!!

Mystics -6. they played well, despite their best player only getting 7pts they won by double figures on the road. Atlanta coming off a double ot win and having to travel. They have little perimeter scoring only 2 threes in a double ot game.   Push Despitebeing down 14 at the end of the 1st and up 16 to start the 4th quarter, bad shot selection, turnovers and free throws missed led to a push. One team not fouling but yet pushing the ball up the court to score, odd finish to a game.

 Seattle/Indiana U140 (BH)  These two teams are playing their 3rd game in 4 nights. Indiana played two uptempo and over teams the first two games. Seattle is the better defensive team and has the best player. Indiana has been badly out rebounded in its first two games. by an average of 13.5 rpg.    Whew, this was close despite 50 fouls, a winner by 2

1-3-1 (play 1 unit on straights, ans 1/2 on teasers and parlays) now 2-3-1 (-0.68 units)

 Thanks  RJ for the goldstar,  Today's Card is this

Shock/Mystics Under 149. The shock are minus 3 starters due to injuries. Their shock's first two games have not gone over 136. Remember the shock are a gritty,grind it out team, Bill Laimbeer is the head coach and Rick Mahorn is oneofthe assistants. The mystics play a uptempo fineese style.  The mystics are trying toget team chemistry and they seem to make bad decisions with the basketball despite being 2-0.  Winner  by 5

Lynx/Sparks Under 159.5/ Sparks +2

The sparks are one of the better defensive teams in the Wnba and always had a goodpost presence,even without Candance Parker. Their inside game and better defensive will be enough to slowdown the Lynx. The lynx shot 23/28 in the first half against the fever, and after a 2/10 start against the sky, went 20/25 the rest ofthe half.  The lynx are a very young but talented team that are improving defensively fromlast year league worst 80.3 ppg. Two extraordinary shooting games skew this line, but the Lynx are thin in the post. the sparksare alsoone the wnba's leading shotblocking teams.   THe sparks lost by 11,and the total was on a 7 pt barrage in the last 30 seconds a three with 4 seconds left, these finishes are odd i tellyou

2-3-1 on the season 1-2 today 3-5-1 Overall

Any good looking chicks in the WNBA?

I would say  at least 10-15 depending on what you like.

A while back there was a chick I thought was hot.  Wonder what she looks like now.  Her name is Adia Barnes.  I think that's how she spells it.

 Mercury/Monarchs Under 169.  The monarchs are one of the lowest scoring teams in the WNBA, combine that with this stat. The monarchs have won 14 of the last 17 against the Mercury at Arco Arena. This is the first road game forthe  mercury. I wavering on taking the monarchs if i can get them as a home dog  Winner Winner

Sky/Dream Over 149. The dream likes the push the basketball and press on defense.the sky wants to play a more uptempostyle. The dream average 31 fouls per game, and 26 turnovers. the Sky 27. The wnba's two highest fouling teams, and allthose free throws should ensure an over.                       attention this line is dropping fast down to 146.5!!!    Winner,went exactly as I thought 

Lynx/Storm Over 158.  The over is 26-11 for the lynx the last 2 seasons.Seattle tends to play more uptempoaway from home. The Lynx force an uptempogame at home  Winner by 1,but after losing so many unders i'll take it Despite notgetting the best line it dropped to 153.5 before closing at 155

6-5-1 (+0.91Units)
