Storm vs Mercury Prediction
As I’ve said for a while, the Mercury are a title contender on paper and oddsmakers agree given they’re often favorites including this spot on the road. However, the Mercury haven’t played like it lately, and it makes them hard to trust. The Storm have had their issues as well, and they’ve been on the fade list for a while, but they’re coming off a nice win over the hot Dream. Also, the Storm are 8-2 SU and ATS in the last 10 games against the Mercury. Two teams I’m not that high on right now, but I’ll grab the bucket with the home team if forced to pick.
