New York at Minnesota

The Minnesota Lynx remain the team to beat in the WNBA, but despite a 3-0 record this team has not yet hit their stride. They needed overtime to win vs. a mediocre Connecticut team, and needed to rally in the last two minutes last night to beat Tulsa at home by a single point. They are allowing 85.7 points per game and are not putting forth a whole lot of effort on the defensive end. New York feels like they are ready to make a run, as they have what they think was the missing piece in Tina Charles. Charles is a double-double machine and is a great rim protector as well. This is a big measuring stick game for the Liberty, and a strong effort here is quite likely. The Lynx have yet to show what they are capable of, and will likely coast through many games this season, but this opponent has some teeth. Grab the points on New York.
