Projected Line: 176 points
Minnesota showed on their season debut why they are one of the best teams in the league. Their offense just crushed the tired Sun with 50% FG, 24 assists, 15 fast break points and 44 points in the paint! Minnesota will easily score against teams that will want to run with them and Connecticut attempted that and got crushed! Minnesota scored "only" 90 points because they cooled off a bit on the fourth quarter with 12 points scored due to the fact that they had a massive lead already.
Luckily for the Lynx, they will be facing another team that will want to run with them once again. Phoenix lost their first two games of the season, while showing their usual defensive problems, with a lack of rebounding as well. The Mercury try to outscore the opponents, but they need a bit more time to install Brittney Griner on their system, but they have already improved on their last game against Seattle by shooting 49.2% FG! The problem for Phoenix was that game was played on half court and that benefited the Storm and not them, as they scored just 4 fast break points and shot just 1-4 3pts!
I expect a pure run and gun game today, with Minnesota having no problems to score tonight, while the Mercury should also have a good offensive performance as well. Brittney Griner has a favorable matchup against Janel McCarville, who isn't a good defensive player. Therefore, I expect a very high scoring game in here and so, I'll be taking the Over.
