The Seattle Storm is just 6-9, but the bigger story here is the fact that the talent-laden Los Angeles Sparks are a woeful 4-8 on the season. The Sparks failure can be summed up rather quickly, and it is a lack of effort on the defensive end of the floor. LA has allowed 81.3 points per game on the season, and if you rewind to last season, they allowed just 75 ppg. Opponents have shot 45.5% against them which ranks #10 worst out of 12 teams, compared to 41.2% a year ago, which was 0.7% from the best in the league. Seattle has been scoring much better lately, as their first nine games they failed to score more than 73 points in any of them, but they have averaged just shy of 80 ppg in their last five. Look for Seattle to push the pace early, and take advantage of the suddenly defenseless Sparks. Play the first half OVER.
