Seattle Storm vs. New York Liberty Prediction

I’m on the Storm and the points in this one. I just think that Seattle as an underdog continues to print and the Liberty laying points is not something I want to align myself with in New York’s current form. The Liberty just have issues covering point spreads and are just worried about winning games right now to get themselves back on track going forward. I think the Storm show up here and at least compete so I’ll side with the Storm and the points here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Seattle +7.5
