These teams have turned in completely different directions from a year ago. The Shock was sitting atop the East, while the Mystics endured a painfully woeful season. The only Eastern team this year that has been up to the task of handling this Mystics team at home has been runaway league leader Indiana. The Shock has had little success on the road, or at all this season, and their biggest road win of the entire season has been by a mere four points, and that was at lowly Sacramento. The best they seem to manage is a 2-9 ATS mark against the East in their last 11. The Mystics won in Detroit earlier this year, a far cry from the four double-digit beatings they took last year vs. the Shock. I'll go with Washington on the moneyline here.
