Last year Tulsa and Connecticut combined to win 21 total games. Both of these teams got off to ugly starts with Connecticut at 1-5, and Tulsa 0-5. It looked like the battle was on for the worst record in the WNBA between these teams once again. Things have changed, as since the ugly starts they now have 13 wins between them in just 22 total games, or 13-9. The question is which one of these teams is for real going forward? I think the answer is Tulsa. The Shock's 11 wins a year ago was a high water mark since moving from Detroit, and they should exceed that this season. They have dveloped some strong talent in Skylar Diggins, and Odyssey. Connecticut just doesn't look to have the roster to sustain a recent run, and they have fallen prey to the loss column in eah of their last three. The Shock are 10-4-1 ATS here in their last 15, and finally have the talent edge to turn in a straight-up win in this one. Play Tulsa on the moneyline.
