So, we're looking at the Connecticut Sun taking on the Seattle Storm, here. Tina Charles and Marina Mabrey have been the shining lights for the Sun this season, clearly putting in the hard work. Alas, it might not be enough given the Sun's... well, let's just say "less than stellar" overall performance this year.
Over on the Storm-side, where the weather ironically seems a lot brighter, Nneka Ogwumike and Skylar Diggins are providing some hefty chunk of power. The Storm's been doing well, riding in the top-five of the WNBA. It's not like they need a weather forecast to know they're on a roll.
What about history? Well, the Storm and the Sun have been playing this back-and-forth game like a couple arguing about who's turn it is to do the dishes. Here's a fun number game - in the last five encounters, each team has come out on top... twice, with the Connecticut Sun taking the most recent matchup.
Where does that all leave us? Well, I'm afraid my gut feelings aren't very useful for your bank account, but if we're talking bets, past performance, and current position, I'd put my non-existent bucks on the Seattle Storm. Don't worry, Sun fans. This isn't a weather prediction; it's just what the numbers are leaning towards.
