Indiana at Minnesota

The Minnesota Lynx and Indiana Fever begin their WNBA Championship series in Minnesota. The Lynx are defending their title from a year ago when they swept Atlanta three games to none to win it all. Things haven't quite come as easy this time around. Minnesota has needed five games to get to the Championship round, but one was an overtime loss, and two others by just a single point. Overall the Lynx have dominated opponents on the season with 21 of their wins coming by double-digits, but over their last 11 games they have won just two by double-digits. Two of those last 11 games came vs. this Indiana team and neither would of covered the price offered in this game. The Fever is the team that is putting teams away as they have five double-digit wins in their last eight games, including three in the playoffs, and are playing their best basketball of the season. The gap has been narrowed, make the play on Indiana in this one.
