Free Wnba Basketball Picks - July 06, 2008
We finished 1-2 yesterday giving back a few units. Today we rebound with two WNBA plays.
Today's WNBA Basketball Picks:
Game: San Antonio at Washington (1:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Game Total UNDER 140 -110 (risk 3 to win 2.7)
These teams have a history of playing OVER, but we like the UNDER this afternoon. Games in this total range, when featuring a home team coming off three straight road games, have gone UNDER 66% of the time the past decade. San Antonio is 8-1 UNDER the past two seasons vs. teams that allow 44%+ from the field. Washington is 22-6 UNDER in their last 28 home games against teams at .600 or better. They are also 10-1 UNDER the past two seasons at home coming off a game that went OVER.
Game: Phoenix at Los Angeles (9:30 PM Eastern)Pick: 3 units on Game Total OVER 177 -105 (risk 3 to win 2.9)
The Mercury are scoring like an NBA team (almost). They are averaging 88.4 points per game (90.8 per game over the last five). Their defense is as bad as their offense is good, which is why they are 8-8 despite this kind of offensive firepower. Los Angeles can also score (78.9 per game). They also play poor defense (77.4 points per game allowed at home). The Sparks are 6-0 OVER dating back to last season as a home favorite of up to six points. They are also 14-4 OVER at home after three straight high-scoring games in which both teams scored 70 or more.
