Randy’s Pick

I’m not running to the window to back either of these teams, but if forced to pick, the Lynx are at home, and they’re the better defensive team of the two. The Seattle Storm are well below average at both ends of the floor and their defense is horrible to say the least. We’re only laying a bucket. Give me the Lynx in a battle of two of the worst teams in the league.
