Dream vs Storm Prediction
The Dream has had time off to figure things out, and there’s a chance they’ll get Nye back for this game. At home, they should be favoured. However, a double-digit line is a bit rich for a Dream team that’s fallen off a cliff offensively and has lost 5 straight games. The Storm have been more competitive lately, and they did just get the monkey off their back with a road win. I need to see the Dream get back on track before I even consider this thick of a line. It’s Storm or pass for me.
