Atlanta at New York

The Atlanta Dream have come a long way in a short time, and will be playing here to represent the East in the WNBA Finals. The New York Liberty have been a hot team, but their games are getting closer. They have put together a 15-4 mark at home, but one of the losses was to this upstart Atlanta team by 9. These teams split four games during the regular season, with each winning one on eachother's home court. The Dream have really been a much improved road team, and have now covered each of their last five on the road. It isn't just the fact they are getting the money, they have beaten the pointspread by a total of 79 points in the five games, or by almost 16 per contest - a sure sign that a team is playing at a very high level. I like Atlanta in this one.
