Dream vs Valkyries Prediction
The Valkyries have made us money all season long, and it still feels weird seeing them as a decent-sized dog. Usually you’ll grab the points with an elite-level defensive team. However, the Dream have smoked the Valkyries in back-to-back games, and Golden State’s players look lost and defeated. There’s no confidence in those eyes when the camera pans to the bench. The Dream have snatched the Valkyries chain, and I’m not sure they believe they can get it back. Momentum can shift in a series, but if the last two games are a sign of things to come, the Dream will be crowned champions in the next few days. I’ll lay the points with the Dream at home.
