Mercury on Tired Legs

The Mercury faced off against the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday and now have another tough game against the Liberty here. Two games ago, the Mercury faced off against the Dallas Wings, and the defense gave up 107 points; the offense scored 92 points in that game but it wasn’t enough, as they lost by 15 points. Kahleah Copper was the top player for the Merucry, putting up 32 points, two rebounds, and one assist. The Mercury’s offense is averaging 88.2 points, while their defense is giving up 89.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 3rd in the WNBA while the defense is ranked 11th. Kahleah Copper has been the top player for the Mercury averaging 29.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals per game.

Liberty Have Lost Two Straight

After such an impressive start to the season, the Liberty haven’t played as well the last couple games. Two games ago against the Chicago Sky they were defeated 90-81 and in the last game against the Minnesota Lynx they were defeated 84-67. The way the offense really looked in the last game was a major problem and they are going to need to get the offense going. Breanna Stewart did have 20 points and 11 rebounds, but the rest of the team didn’t step up. The Liberty are averaging 83.3 points while their defense is giving up 77.2 points per game. The offense is ranked 8th while the defense is ranked 1st. Stewart has been the top player averaging 19.5 points while shooting 45.7 percent from the field. 

Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty

The Liberty have lost two games in a row and I don’t trust them here. The Mercury might have tired legs here, but the Liberty’s defense is going to really struggle here, and that is going to be the difference. Phoenix is going to have no issue running up the score and they are going to really put the pressure on the Liberty here. It might not be enough to win this game, but they are going to cover the spread. Back the Liberty against the spread.
