I've hyped up the series a good amount from the intro paragraph. So far, the road teams have come up victorious in this playoff series. Question is if the Dream can win another on the road tonight and get to its third straight Eastern Conference Finals appearance.
Game 2: #4 Seattle Storm at #1 Minnesota Lynx, 9 PM ET/6 PM PT on ESPN 2 for Round 1, Game 3 of the Western Conference Playoffs. Series is Tied, 1 a piece.

Even if you aren't a Storm Fan Crazy or if you aren't a member of the Lynxpack #LosLynx, that Sunday game was good, and was the definition of playoff excellence. I personally thought this was the end of the Bird and Jackson era before the game started, and here I am eating my words and getting laughed at by the team in green and gold.
But in the playoffs, emotions run high and it's very easy for one game to totally go one team's way and against that same team in the next game. So while this was a great game, and while I could see the Storm blowing out the Lynx in Minny tonight, I can also see the Lynx blowing out the Storm too. But really, I hope to see yet another great game between these two teams.
So those are the games, and enjoy the concluding games of these two great playoff matches!
