New York at Atlanta

It certainly has been a humbling start for the New York Liberty, who are still seeking their first win after dropping to 0-3 with their loss to Minnesota. The record may not show it, but this team is better than 0-3. The line also doesn't show it, as yes they have lost three straight, but it was to the best two teams in the WNBA, so things should be a lot more competitive here. The Dream knows one way to play and that is run and shoot. They piled-up 84 points at Indiana, but forgot that there is two ends of the floor as Indiana struck for 92. Last year they allowed 20 opponents to reach the 80-point mark, and the Liberty has enough offense to do the same, but they make more of an effort on the other end of the court to make this one decided late. The Dream is now 11-4 to the OVER in their last 15 vs. the East, and the last five vs. New York here has seen four top the total as well. The Liberty has only failed to cover one of the last five trips here and are in line for another cover tonight. Play on New York and take the OVER.
