I agree with the first two rounds, but not being a homer (and not living in Georgia) I'll take Washington over Atlanta and Seattle to win the finals.

A homer would want the Sparks to upset the Mystics. There's no chance Atlanta beats Delle Donne without McCoughtry.

Actually, I picked every series by who won the regular season series between the teams...

Atlanta teams usually try to find the most heart breaking path to defeat. Whether its the Falcons blowing a 25 point lead in the Super Bowl, the 60 win season Hawks getting swept 4-0 in the ECF, the Braves blowing a big lead in the World Series (97? it's a supressed memory) or the Dream being swept in 9 finals games - they find the way to inflict the great amount of pain on their fans. So I predict PAIN.

But I'll go along for the ride on this roller coaster to hell.

I guess I will go like this:

Mercury over Dallas
Sparks over Lynx

Sparks over DC
Sun Over Mercury

Sun over Storm
Dream over Sparks

Dream over Sun

I'm really afraid of the single elimination game for the mystics Laughing the sparks/lynx are still a better team than us on somedays but if we win that, I don't see us dropping a 5 game series so my prediction is:

Wings over Phoenix
Sparks over Lynx

Mystics over Sparks
Wings over Connecticut

Mystics over Atlanta
Seattle over Wings

Mystics over Seattle

You have Dallas winning their first game, which would mean that they would play the Mystics, while LA would head to Connecticut. Just a heads up.

Homer version:

Wings over Mercury
Lynx over Sparks

Sun over Lynx (Whalen's last game is where she started)
Mystics over Wings

Sun over Storm
Dream over Mystics

Sun over Dream (Fight Final)

non-homer version:

Mercury over Wings (Wings haven't won a playoff game since they left Detroit)
Lynx over Sparks

Mystics over Lynx
Sun over Mercury (Curt needs a win here, hardest game to pick in my opinion, Mercury never lost a one game playoff)

Storm over Sun, Probably a sweep, Sun might win one game
Mystics over Dream 3 games to 2, EDD makes a Final

Final: Storm over Mystics 3-1 (Coach T drops another final to the Storm)

The interesting and exciting thing about this year's playoffs is that homerism aside, a scenario exists where each team (maybe excepting Dallas) has a plausible chance of winning the title. Seattle is the favorite but they don't seem invincible like LA and MN were in the past few years. Among the other teams - Atlanta, DC, and the Sun all seem like they could make it to the finals, and it is really hard to simply count LA, Phoenix out completely. Even the teams I consider the dark horses have a lot of talent on thier rosters and MN of course is the still the champ until someone beats them.
