Aces vs Mercury Prediction
The Aces are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home, and it’s hard to bet against them when they’ve won 22 of their last 24 games. However, I’ve been on the Mercury for a long time, and I’m not turning back now. The Mercury were in control of game 1 and probably should’ve won it.
Also, the Mercury have lost game 1 in each of their last 2 playoff series and went on to not lose a game in the rest of the series. The underdog has covered 7 of the last 10 games between the Aces and Mercury. I still believe the Mercury are the better team and will win this series. Give me the free bucket.
