As predicted, the Aces defeated the Liberty tonight in LV 85-73, to catch the Wings in the standings at 14-18 with 2 to play. The Liberty were playing a back-to-back having played the Sparks in Los Angeles last night.
The Aces and the Wings square off Friday in Dallas in what may decide who advances to the post season. Each team controls their own fate. Win your last two games, and you play next week.
The Aces host the Dream Sunday, the final day of the regular season, who they have failed to beat in two attempts so far, while the Wings play their season finale in Seattle.
The Wings are leaking oil at this point having lost their head coach Sunday, while also dealing with some discontent and turmoil in the ranks. I predict the Wings lose their last two games, sending the Aces to the playoffs in the 11th hour of season.
