writeup:
Game: Minnesota at Los Angeles (10:30 PM Eastern)
Pick: Minnesota +6.5 (+100)
The Minnesota Lynx lost their best player early, and played competitively, then hit a really horrific stretch that saw them lose nine out of 10 games. With their best player gone, and the season in a hopeless state, it would have been easy for them to mail it in the rest of the way. That never happened, and is a testament to this team that they didn't quit. What has happened is they have kept working, and have now won three of their last five and the two losses were close games - within the pointspread offered here. The Sparks have managed to pull themselves together to reach the .500 mark for the season, through the help of a six-game winning streak, but have slipped back again at 2-3 over their last five. I will back Minnesota in this one.
