This has been the most difficult and trying season for last year's Eastern Conference regular season winning Mystic club. The Fever is now in catbird seat to do the same with a two game loss column edge on Connecticut, after the Sun set vs. Atlanta last night. The Fever are not exactly closing strong, losers of three of their last four games and may take the east by default. They crumbled the Mystics by 31 in their last meeting, so energy should be diminished here with minimal interest. It should also be noted that, despite of the last game blowout vs. Washington, they failed to win by this number in the other three. The professional pride comes into play tonight with the Mystics off back-to-back blowouts. I like Washington in this one.
