Las Vegas Aces vs. Chicago Sky preview, prediction, schedule, how to watch WNBA playoffs, live streamThe defending champion Las Vegas Aces finished the regular season on a four-game winning streak to set a new WNBA single-season record of 34 wins, and clinch the No. 1 overall seed in the playoffs. Now, they'll begin their quest to become the first repeat champions since the 2001 and 2002 Los Angeles Sparks with a first-round matchup against the Chicago Sky. This was a difficult season for the Sky, who lost nearly their entire championship core in the winter, then saw head coach and GM James Wade resign suddenly in July. Heading into the final few weeks their chances of getting a playoff spot seemed slim, but they rallied and won five of their last six games to earn the eighth and final spot.
"I didn't want to unload a whole bag of tricks just to try to win a game, " Hammon said. "(The Liberty) are going to have their hands full (with Washington). That is a tough 7-2 matchup. So we'll continue to gain information just like they'll watch our games and continue to gain information on us, but we're not worried about New York. We're worried about Chicago. "As historical as the regular season was for the Aces, it would be largely forgotten if they're not able to raise another championship banner. The 2002 Los Angeles Sparks were the last team to repeat, and before them the Houston Comets won four titles in a row.
Experienced Aces open WNBA title defense against SkyMARK ANDERSON Associated Press LAS VEGAS — It's the same starting five as last season when the Las Vegas Aces won their first WNBA championship. And despite getting every opponent's best shot this season, the Aces captured the league's top playoff seed and set several notable records. That postseason experience from last year should serve Las Vegas well when it opens the playoffs Wednesday night against the Chicago Sky.
The Aces, however, downplayed the importance of experience. "No playoff run is the same, " cautioned point guard Chelsea Gray, last season's WNBA Finals MVP. There are several reasons for the Aces to be on high alert. They have struggled to get much production from their bench, forcing the Aces to rely heavily on the starters. That wasn't the plan entering the season, but Riquna Williams hasn't played because of a back injury and then was accused in July of domestic violence before charges were dropped last week. Marquee free-agent pickup Candace Parker, a two-time MVP, went down early in the season with a broken foot.
