San Antonio/NY WNBA

[kegray1]

This line seems a little odd to me and has me scrambling to find an injury report.
It seems all are in good health for SA tonight so I will play:

SAN ANTONIO SILVER STARS(+8) over NY LIBERTY for 220 wins 200. LOSER

SA has won 6 straight in this matchup including a 63-60 win last week.

Becky Hammon(18 ppg) and Vickie Johnson return to play in NY where they both spent many years playing and will be looking forward to this one.
Sophia Young avg. 20 ppg for SA is tough to stop and Ruth Riley(10.5 ppg,9.5 reb) is a tough player down low.

This should be another low scoring game so I will take the 8 points.

Good Lcuk

Hammon isn't playing.

 

[kegray1]

Uhh boy.
Nice job by Silver stars site to mention that. She was listed in probable starters.
Weak bench for SA so this is not good.
Gonna need Sophia Young to go for 30.

 

[kegray1]

Almost considered buying it back but screw it, I like to gamble.
I wouldn't advise taking the points without Hammon though.
I may be the only person on the titanic.

 

[repoman]

It could be good for an under. I don't know the WNBA all that much. Is Hammon a good defender?

 

[kegray1]

She is not a good defender but she makes that team go.

Instead of buying back, I will dig a deeper hole.

SA/NY(Under 139) for 110 wins 100. WINNER

Threw the Liberty in a cheap parlay with some baseball as a small backup chance.

Hammon is a traitor to our country and now me personally.:mj07:

 

[kegray1]

It is hard to get reports on teams.
It is like the league is not popular or something.:142smilie

I was torn between playing Washington and SA. I didn't want to play 2 WNBA games so I went with the one I liked most until the Hammon news.

I know Washington will win since I have nothing on them now.

Adding one:

Seattle Storm(-9.5) over Minn. for 110 win 100. Winner

Minn is going to struggle with no "go to" player now that Augustus is out for season.

 

[kegray1]

Bad luck in putting in play not knowing Hammon out. Good luck in nobody scoring last 1:29 to get the under by 1 point.

 

[kegray1]

Got myself out of the fire yesterday.

The difference between the NBA and WNBA stars is when the NBA stars are out the team seems to burn you by sacking up and winning anyway without him.

In the WNBA the team rolls over and gets smoked.
It happened twice last night.
Minn playing without Augustus and SA without Hammon. Both were down around 20 at the half.

Hammon will miss next SA game and Augustus is out for the season. Minn may adjust but there season is over without Augustus.
