Total of the Week WNBA 10*
(WNBA) New York vs. Atlanta,
Total: 166.00 | -120.00 Under
Result: Win
ASA WNBA play on UNDER 165.5 NY Liberty at Atlanta Dream, 7:30 PM ET - We successfully bet Under in the Liberty’s last game against the Sky and will come right back with another Under wager in this game as the Sky/Dream have some similarities. Both the Liberty and Dream are in the top half of the league in Defensive Efficiency ratings with the Liberty allowing .967-points per possession, the Dream give up .995PPP. New York is the 5th slowest paced team in the WNBA at 78.9 possessions p/game, the Dream are 2nd slowest at 78.8PPP. Atlanta has stayed Under the total in 3 straight games with numbers of 119, 152 and 140. The Dream are a poor shooting team at 40.3% on the season and are coming off a horrendous shooting night of 28% against the Sun. Atlanta is also in the bottom half of the league in Offensive Efficiency. New York has put up 104 and 90-points in two most recent games but they came against the Fever and Mystics who are the worst defenses in the league. In fact, New York’s 86.1PPG is very misleading as they’ve faced a weak schedule with 6 of their ten games this season coming against the three worst Defensive Net Ratings teams in the W. New York is clearly the dominant team here and they may call off the dogs late in this game as they have a huge game on deck against Connecticut. We are on the Under in this one.
