Chicago Sky at Indiana Fever ( Wnba In Season Tournament)

1. Chicago Sky-2

(YTD 5-5 Ats)

Today marks the first game of the commissioner's cup.

Both of these teams were already going to be highly motivated for this matchup today, but now you throw in that this game not only counts towards your regular season standings which is very important when you only play 40 games. But it also counts towards the In season tournament which is Very important. There's money on the line here.

Indiana Fever are 0-4 SU and 1-3 Ats at home this season. In my opinion Christine Sides needs to be fired. They were the worst defensive team in the league last year and they're the worst defensive team in the league this year so far. 

I understand the Fever are going to play extra hard to try and get their first home victory today, but you're not going to win a home game if you're giving up 48% shooting to your opponents and 39% from three.

Chicago Sky are 2-1 SU and Ats on the road this season. The Sky Are holding their opponents on the road to 42% shooting from the field and 36% from three.

Teresa Witherspoon has her team playing solid defense this year so far. I know what some of you are going to say Cardoso could possibly mess up the rhythm of the team because she hasn't played in an official WNBA game yet. I believe the team will be extra fired up if she plays today. 

We all know when the Indiana Fever play at home. It's a sold-out crowd. Their attendance numbers are double, triple the amount of other team home games (when those teams aren't playing the Indiana fever). The opposing team gets extra fired up...It's like a playoff atmosphere. It's huge media coverage. They get a chance to showcase their skills on National television. They get a chance to go. Against Superstar Caitlin Clark.

I truly believe the defense of the Chicago Sky  will be the difference.

Final score 86-77.

Let's have a winning day everybody.

I like a lot of what you say but as such I believe in the total to be under.  There is no question about your take on the Fever and poor D and all.  You can¡¯t win game by giving up so many points.  

Wish you the best as always.  Your words and points make me like the under here.

best wishes

 Avoid early starts just to help make you better. 

Avoid overs on early game times is what I meant 

@spottie2935

 Got it. Good luck this season. Trying to find consistency in WNBA. Not like NBA. 

Final score 71-70. Fever won outright.
Congrats Fever Backers.

Fever get their first win at home of the season. Chicago Sky defense was good...It's their offense that couldn't make an outside jump shot to save their lives. This was also the best defensive performance from Indiana all season.

 Thx Tweets!!!

Both teams played very well defensively,  Indiana played much better defense than I expected but this is the commissioners cup and there's money on the line and as we know these players don't get paid a lot. So they're taking this in season tournament very seriously.
