Seattle Storm - LA Sparks
Both teams are defensive minded and I expect them to continue playing in defense as hard as they to achieve their goals of the season especially in vital for both Game 2. So far they played 16 quarters this season and only 1 of 16 was with 40 points. All others were under this total and the most important than normal scoring norm when for these teams is 32.5 pts per according to their games this year.
And it's not big suprise that so far only one game was over 140 points while 3 others ended with 113, 122 and 138 points. Also that 40 points happened in opening quarter Game 1 when Seattle allowed LA to score about 12 points from fast breaks and often LA players were open to score a 3 pointer. After 1st quarter intermission and things changed LA scored only 52 pts per 3 quarters (around 17.3 in each).
Expect Seattle to shake up their defense in most important games and slow down a game pace to avoid easy opponents points. I would set 137.5 pts here instead of 143.5 and I think that here we have 6-points advantage over the line to pick under with medium stakes. Prediction: Seattle 72 - 64 LA Sparks Pick: Under 143.5 @ 1.93 PinnacleSports
