Today is the next clash of the Titans. Very psyched to watch our Lynx put another loss on the Mercury.
NBA TV. Local 9pm tip off.
Both teams have kind of been sleep walking through there last few gms. The grind may be getting to some teams & players at this point. Both Phx & MN will have home court in Finals so this game is basically for who gets to host gm #3 (IF necessary) in the West Conf Finals. That’s it.
No team has been eliminated yet from the playoffs with 1 wk to go. Only Phoenix, Minnesota & Atlanta have locked up playoff spots, yet every game still has meaning for all 12 teams.
In the East, ATL has been slipping up losing 4 in a row and could cough up the top sport in the east. 2nd place team is 2 gms out of 1st and teams 2-5 in the East can drop or rise on any given night, with or without playing as they’re all within .5 to 2 gms of each other 
In the West, Phx wins tonight, they own the tie breaker w/MN so they'd have to lose all 4 of 4 and the Lynx win their final 3 to change that.
Lynx win and Phx would still have to lose at least 1 gm & the Lynx win out to have home court.
Interesting Lynx will host one of the 3 teams they will meet in their final 3 games in the 1st round of the playoffs. LA, San Antonio & Tulsa all are still fighting for spots 3 & 4, they each have a game vs. 1 or both of the teams their battling with as well.
Play-off match-ups could come down to the last day of regular season next Sunday.
