JR's WNBA plays

[Jrgum3]

I got two more plays on the 3 game slate tonight. First up I took the under 160 in the Dream/Mercury game. I went with the Under due to the fact the Dream have been struggling to score in the second half of the season and also the fact that the Mercury could be without a couple of key players tonight including Diana Taurasi. Even if she plays I think this one comes in under the total due to the Dream's struggles on offense.

Next up I took the Sparks -4.5 tonight against the Sky. The Sparks have been the better team leading up to this important game between two teams fighting to make the playoffs. While the Sparks have been winning games and covering spreads lately the Sky have been struggling with the exception of games against the bottom feeders of the league. Given that the Sparks have been in better recent form, I'm laying the points with the home team Sparks tonight to get it done and cover the small spread at home.

Official Plays:
Atlanta Dream/Phoenix Mercury u160 -110 1.1u to win 1u
LA Sparks -4.5 -111 1.11u to win 1u

Get it, JR!

Tough betting totals right now for me as teams like the Mercury have mailed it in and when that happens you get things that happen like tonight where the Dream find their stride on offense and cruise to an easy victory that they badly needed which in turn sent the total comfortably over the total. Hopefully the Sparks win and cover like I expect them to so I can salvage a 1-1 day for my plays.

Plenty of time to get to even

Incredible game to watch between the Sky and the Sparks. Unfortunately for me the Sky stole one from the Sparks on the road to make the race even tighter for that last playoff spot. There's a day off for me in the schedule tomorrow which is probably a good thing after losing a couple of bets tonight. Sometimes it helps to have a day off and then come back strong when the schedule resumes on Thursday so we'll see if that happens for me.

Sky dominated the 2nd and 3rd Q though still end up a close ending.

Enjoy your rest day, JR.

Kind of a tricky card today so I only made one play. I am on the Mystics +10.5 today because I think at full strength they can give the Aces a run for their money on the Aces home court. I don't necessarily think they can win the game which is why I didn't take a stab at the money line but I'll gladly accept 10.5 points because I'm not sure the Aces can blow anybody out by double digits with the way they've been playing lately and how tired they've looked coming down the stretch.

Official Play:
Washington Mystics +10.5 -110 1.1u to win 1u

Good luck, JR!

Yep always nice when the team down 9 with 10 seconds left decides to let the other team run the clock out. Sometimes in mens college hoops or the NBA you see the losing team foul for no reason when its hopeless so I'm glad we didn't see that here and I was able to cash.

The card tonight is very tricky because we have some uncertainty regarding injuries to key players. I only made one play and that is the Liberty 1H -4. It's tough making a play on this game without knowing Sabrina Ionescu's status for the game which is currently questionable but I believe the Liberty are deep enough to overcome this with a strong start at home versus a Sun team that played last night. I lean to the over in this game but I didn't take it because totals have burned me lately plus Ionescu's status being questionable makes me think that the Liberty offense might struggle a little if she doesn't play.

The other games I am not making a play on because I consider the Dream/Lynx game to be a toss up that could go either way and in the Wings/Fever game I lean Dallas -5.5 but only because Aliyah Boston might not play.

Yeah with Sabrina out I'll admit this is a dicey play but New York is deep and talented so I am not as worried as I would be with a different team missing one of their star players. I think the Liberty get it done here but I can understand not playing this game or playing something else in one of the other two games.

Nice easy winner on the Liberty 1H bet. Just one game tomorrow and its between the Aces and Storm so I may sit it out but I haven't decided anything. If I decide to make a play of course I'll post it here in the thread but I may just wait until Sunday when there are 4 games going on that day.

Win your next one & go on a long streak.

yay, we both won JR.



onto today.

 

[Jrgum3]

Not much to like here today as the Aces are laying a whopping 17.5 points but it's warranted against the Storm who aren't in their league. I think if you play it the Aces 1H line is the way to go but even that is -9.5. I don't think this game will be close but I'm passing here and waiting for tomorrow's larger 4 game slate to find some winners.
