CHI Sky - CON Sun

It's pretty straightforward here, the very solid Dallas Wings team meets the opponents of high offensive rank and arrives prepared to outplay and defend against the Portland Fire. They have recently had some more peaceful games, but today seems to be the perfect opportunity to run and score again. The last head-to-head match ended with 198 points, so today I expect at least 180+.

Connecticut may not be an overpowered team, but today they are facing opponents who are often very productive in the over league. They usually enjoy playing better offense at home, and the home support may also contribute to that. Chicago is by far the fastest team in the league, so a lower offensive rating for Sun today should not have as much significance in fast-paced basketball and there should be opportunities for easy points. Sun also seems weak on defense.

Chicago is currently the fastest team in the league, so a lower rating for the Sun's offense should not have much significance in a quick-paced game and could result in easy points. However, the Sun also appear to be lacking in defense.
