GAME: Atlanta @ San Antonio Silver Stars Aug 6, 2009 8:00PMSPORT: WNBA PICK: overOffered at: 156.5 REASON FOR PICK: Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take the Over between the Atlanta Dream @ San Antonio Silver Stars (Thursday @ 8pm est). The Dream are for real. If folks did not know it in the beginning of the season, and the fact that many called it a fluke, more than half way through the season this team sits at a 10-10 record. In fact, they have one more win than the Silver Stars who they play today. These two teams have not met thus far tihs year and are consequently not as familiar with each other. I wouldn't be surprised if the Dream can win this game outright as any game this team takes part in, home or away, they have a chance to win. Heck, why do you think the spread is +5 given that nearly 2/3rds of the public are taking the Silver Stars. The Dream have played the over in the last four road games including at Minnesota, at Detroit, at New York and at Indiana. San Antonio has played the Over to the tune of 3 of their last four home games and I would not be surprised if another over turned up here between these two teams. The Over is 10-3 for the high powered Dream offense when playing on at least 3 days rest and the Over is 5-1 for the Silver Stars when playing the Eastern Conference.
