Looking at this Dallas Wings and New York Liberty match-up, it's clear the Liberty are holding all the aces. They've been barely stopping for gas this season with a record of 23-4. I guess using the Liberty's previous form would be the equivalent of shooting fish in a barrel, wouldn't it?
Satou Sabally of the Wings, however, is playing like a woman with her hair on fire, posting an impressive 20.0 points per game last month. But you know what they say when you play with fire. On the Liberty's side, one cannot just ignore Breanna Stewart. Last month, Stewart scored an average of 22.5 points per game like she was strolling in the park.
Past encounters between these two have seen the Liberty get the upper hand, but only just. The Wings' recent loss to Connecticut Sun might've dented their morale somewhat, but hey, if it ain't tough, it ain't fun. And let's not forget, the Liberty have been strutting their stuff of late on all fronts.
Sadly, for the Dallas Wings, despite being 10th in the conference and dealing with a losing season record, things aren't looking too peachy. But then again, a bad day at the races doesn't mean you're a bad jockey. However, when you're trying to chase a house cat that is the Liberty, currently lording it over everyone else at the top of the Eastern conference, it's bound to get a touch tricky.
