LOSS

The Minnesota Lynx have been the heavyweight in the WNBA over the last two years. They won it all a year ago and have taken a 1-0 lead in their series vs. Los Angeles in a rather methodical fashion, at home by 17 points. Keep in mind that this is a team that stumbled on the road late in the season and, their only game in the playoffs this season, on the road in Seattle saw them get tripped up again. The only team they have managed to beat in their last four on the road was lowly Phoenix and, included in the losses, is a game in LA where they were beaten badly. As good as Minnesota has been at home, now 19-1 including the playoffs, LA has been their equal with a 17-1 mark, including their playoff win over San Antonio. The Sparks have won seven straight here vs. a winning team and on that list is two wins vs. Minnesota. I look for LA to step it up a notch here and find a way to win this one, like they have at home all season. Play on LA on the moneyline.
