WNBA: Monday

[superbook]

Sunday: 1-1
YTD: 10-3

I'm staying away from Totals in the future and just playing Sides.

Here's my picks for all three games:

Houston +1

Charlotte is coming off an upset victory over LA, the best team in the league, and a win to avenge last year's loss in the WNBA championships.

IMO Charlotte will come back a little flat and home court is less of an advantage for Charlotte given their poor fan support (avg = 6500).

Houston is a powerhouse again this year and the Comets have won 9 of L10 ATS vs the Sting.

I've seen Charlotte's best player Hinson listed as probable for this game, but I don't believe it since she could barely walk yesterday after spraining her ankle in the first half of Saturday night's game vs LA.

Best Bet: Phoenix -6

PHO has won all 7 match-ups ATS vs WA. Phoenix's rookie Tracy Reed scored 16 in their last game, I expect a young Washington team to falter on the road, especially with Holdsclaw out for her grandmother's funeral.

Portland +15

The Sparks are like that other team from LA -- they have trouble covering. The Sparks are 1-3 ATS so far this season, they seem to play just well enough to win. In their past four games, POR and LA have alternated winning ATS; this time it's POR's turn.

I don't think the Fire will snap the Sparks 23 straight home game winning streak, but I think 15 is too many.

Bosco --

Thanks for the heads up, can't wait to hear what you think.

FWIW, I played HOU +1 at Oly, money is obviously coming in on CHA to push it to 1.5.

Also, I see that the HOU/CHA Total opened at Oly at 123.5 and is now down to 122.5. In their last game the actual was 103 points with HOU shooting just 25%. But all 9 match-ups before that all went over 122.5.

With Holdslaw out for her grandmother's funeral, Phoenix becomes my Best Bet.

I don't love anything tonight. The lines look to be about right. If POR plays as bad as they did agianst SEA, LA should cover even though its a huge #. Took CHAR -1 in the FH and POR +9 in the FH. Crossing my finger POR makes a game of it. Lean to over in the POR/LA game. Still looking at the PHX game....

taking the over 62 in the 2H of the CHAR game. Both teams shooting horribly. Hopefully they can shoot a little better, and since it will probably be a close game there will probably be a few FT's in the last couple minutes....

550/500
