The Valkyries are 3-1 at home this season and that one loss came a few weeks ago to a then 2-0 Sky team before injuries riddled them. Golden State has won three of four overall and are 4-2-1 ATS this season so despite being 0-4 vs. the Aces all-time, these are differently trending squads.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content__paragraph\">The Over has hit in three straight Golden State and three of the last four Aces contests. However, the two games in San Francisco have been closer defensive battles, averaging 156.5 total points and neither game clearing today&#8217;s 168.5 number. The last meeting between the two teams finished 78-72 (150).<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content__paragraph\" class=\"p1\">Despite their seven straight losses as underdogs to Western Conference opponents, the Valks are 2-0 SU this season against the West. Conversely, the Aces are 1-3 vs. the Western Conference this season, with half their wins coming in back-to-back games against the cellar-dwelling Connecticut Sun on May 13 &amp; 15. Las Vegas has lost two in a row and held halftime leads in both.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content__paragraph\" class=\"p1\">The champs ain&#8217;t champin&#8217; right now.
