Los Angeles at Seattle

The Seattle Storm had one problem this season, they put the division away so early the second half of the season was just an exercise with no games meaning anything. The 34 game season saw the Storm win the division by 13 games. Los Angeles stood at 5-15 through 20 games and appeared destined for the sidelines when the playoffs started. They went 8-6 in their last 14, hardly a huge surge, but by default of so many bad teams in the West here they are in the playoffs with the worst record ever at 13-21. A closer look at their 8-6 finish shows they beat nobody with a winning record and six of the eight came against Minnesota and Tulsa, with the other two vs Chicago and Connecticut. Basically this team won their only game vs a winning team all the way back in May! Seattle in this one
