Result:
LOSS

Atlanta has a winning record at home and faces struggling New York (3-7), a team that has lost two in a row (0-2 ATS) and is in the middle of a three-game road trip. New York has all kinds of problems, third worst in points scored, three-point shooting, and field goal shooting defense, plus second worst in three-point shooting defense. The offense has been awful the last two games, losing by 9 and 42 points while allowing 73 and 97 points. The Liberty are 2-7 ATS in their last nine games as an underdog and 0-6 ATS in their last six games as an underdog of +5.0 to +10.5. They've been terrible against teams with a winning record, losing to Connecticut by 15 and 42 points, Minnesota by 18, Indiana by 23, and even to this Atlanta team in the first meeting by 26 points. Atlanta is 2-2 the last four games - both losses to powerhouse Connecticut, including the last game by two points. They lost to the Connecticut Sun 75-73 in heartbreaking fashion, leading the entire game except for less than one second on a controversial foul call that helped give the Sun their first and only lead. This is the third of a nice three-game home stand, so look for a big bounce-back effort after the frustrating close loss to Connecticut. Play Atlanta.
