New York Liberty vs. Phoenix Mercury Prediction

I’m on the Liberty here. I like this Mercury team but when the Liberty are healthy, the’re a very imposing team and a very tough team to knock off. New York hasn’t been the best when laying points but when catching points with them, that’s another story. Give me New York and the free bucket here.
