New York Liberty vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction

The New York Liberty are going to be favored at home with the rest advantage on top of them being the better team. The Phoenix Mercury are on the end of a back to back and were just destroyed by the Connecticut Sun. However, the Liberty are coming off back to back losses, and they’re 1-5 ATS on the season. The Liberty have failed to cover 7 of their last 8 Games as double-digit favorites. I’m not laying this many points with the Liberty. This line is too steep. Give me the Mercury if forced to pick.
