The Mercury started off great, leading nearly all of Game 1, but things then took a negative turn and they now find themselves in an 0-2 hole as the series shifts to the Phoenix.
The Phoenix Mercury entered the WNBA Finals with so much confidence that it sure felt more like trash talk, though the Las Vegas Aces owned home-court advantage and had won two championships in the previous three years.
The Mercury started off great, leading nearly all of Game 1, but things then took a negative turn, and they now find themselves in a 2-0 hole as the series shifts to Phoenix.
The Mercury are 3.5-point home favorites in Game 3 with a total of 164.5 points.
I do think Phoenix bounces back and makes it a series again, but I am still reluctant to lay the points with such an inconsistent team. And the main source of that inconsistency is 3-point shooting.
