Bet365 to win WNBA Finals:

Sky +275
Mercury -350

Sky barely made it past their last 2 series, unless EDD is healthy by then I don't see them matching up well. If she is healthy this may still only be a 4 game series.


Lynx to win it all @+191
Mercury to win it all @+165
Parlay - Lynx (-800) and Mercury (-800) win first round series @-400
Sky to win ECF @+117 for 1u
Added Under on 161 (PHO vs CHI)
Taking Mercury -4.5
Mercury -5


5-1 +4.17u

Sky getting bent over, I am really surprised to see any starter in right now until the rest of the game.

This series should go 3.

Griner had 8 blocks and I doubt she plays a minute in the 4th.

EDD only played 10 minutes, we will see what she has on tuesday but this series looks over.

PHOENIXXXX

 

[Arizona_Sting]

At least this Phoenix basketball team has multiple rings :rollseyes:

 

[BOTSLAYER]

holy fuck the early going of this game have me going HEDGE!!!!

 

[BOTSLAYER]

wow refs really letting the other team beat the shit out of Griner.

Silvia Fowels poked her in the eye in a motion that looked pretty unnatural later she gets elbowed in the face so hard she loses a filling, she getting the LBJ treatment.

 

[BOTSLAYER]

WNBA Finals MVP has to be 1. Taurasi 2. Griner 3. There isn't one


My choice would be Griner, the biggest reasons they have these leads is because of her D changing everything happening on that end, but people love scoring.

PHOENIX hahaha yeeee

 

[BOTSLAYER]

PHOENIX hahaha yeeee

series over on friday and then I get paid!!!!

Worst WNBA Finals EVER.

No mystery.

Not at all entertaining.

This is not like the Comets 4peat Dynasty.

Those games were close.

This was just a slaughter.

I have to agree in that sense. WNBA finals were played in the WCF. I am personally loving it for monetary reasons.

What is left to mystery is this teams place all time, they have to be considered #2 all time, I can see an argument for #1 I just don't think they are.

Maybe next year with another year of Griner progression (she is the WNBA's Bill Russell which is crazy to say but time will tell and what she does on the defensive end is amazing), hopefully she refines her offense a bit.

-Griner game time decision with eye injury
-WNBA gets no respect...Garth Brooks playing a concert so Chicago can't play on their home court
-I highly doubt Griner misses game 3...even so the opening line of Mercury -7.5 has dropped to -6.5 as I type
-I will wait for it to keep dropping and right before they announce Griner is playing (tomorrow morning 8amish et) I will take Mercury at -whatever



Brittney Griner of Phoenix Mercury has eye procedure, iffy for Game 3 of WNBA Finals - ESPN

 

[BOTSLAYER]

Line just jumped to PHO -7.5 so I assume somebody has some info that Griner is playing but I havent seen anything on twitter.

PHO -7.5 for tonight and what will hopefully be my final bet!!!


GOOOO MERCURY!!!!!

 

[BOTSLAYER]

PHO -7.5 for tonight and what will hopefully be my final bet!!!

Griner is not playing so I am cancelling this bet.

-0.13 units and no action tonight

 

[BOTSLAYER]

We have got ourselves a game!!! All it took was the best player to be off the court and it becomes an even game!!

These 2 teams are battling and it has been close all game, PHO has led almost the whole way...if not the whole way.

If PHO wins tonight Taurasi earns MVP, if they win on Sunday I have to think Griner gets it assuming she plays at a high level.

 

[The Derski]

WNBA champs!!! Best team in league history IMO

 

[BOTSLAYER]

AND PHOENIX MERCURY ARE THE WNBA CHAMPIONS!!!! They are now tied for 2nd for the most championships in the league.

Griner is not playing so I am cancelling this bet.

-0.13 units and no action tonight

Forgot that only juice would be lost on 1 play which was luckily the cheaper one, -0.03u

7-2 (technically with the bet and cancel other wise 6-1) and good for +5.79

It has to be considered, they lost 6 games all year including the 1 in the playoffs.

Griner being out and them leading pretty much wire to wire in Chicago is pretty sick. Griner in they were setting records for Finals blowouts.

This team was so damn good. I know everyone makes fun of the WNBA, but Phoenix's playing style was actually watchable for me. And this is coming from one of the biggest WNBA haters out there.
