WNBA finals - 9/1

[Dark Horse]

First game was a 24 pt blowout by SAC on road. This sets up for an all-or-nothing effort by DET. They can't go to SAC down 0-2. Right? Wrong. Game 1 wasn't a matter of DET not showing up. SAC was in control of every part of the game. That wasn't an exception. Prior to demolishing the Shock, SAC had already manhandled the 'must-win' LA Sparks, and reduced probable MVP Lisa Leslie to the role of innocent bystander. SAC has taken it to the next level -that of defending champion-, and unless they have a letdown they will win game #2 as well, and most likely go on to sweep the series. The numbers support this play. In games with small lineoff either way (under 5 pts), the road dog is 28-18 ATS.

SAC +4

Also, early lean towards the O141.

i like detroit in this game myself DH.

i just don't see detroit playing like they did in game 1.

[Dark Horse]

Neither do I. lol But not playing like in game #1 and a 25 pt turnaround are two different things. Remember that SAC was up by 24 pts at the half in LA in their previous game. They're a freight train.

Still, I hear ya. I did middle a portion of the wager with DET -3.
Thanks and good luck.

We're on opposites on this one, DH but you seem to have the WNBA down. Detroit was going to be my big play but I'm playing it much smaller.

Detroit -170 2 units

I had a little gnawing feeling about this one when I woke up. So I was happy to see the line move in my favor (see previous post).

Halftime SAC 42-33. Good game.

SAC is still dominating. DET's best shot just isn't good enough.

prolly gonna be a sweep

[Dark Horse]

Wow. DET comes through. Wins 2H 40-21. We have ourselves a slugfest.

SAC +4

Thanks for the tip in the other direction. That helped.
