Portland Fire vs. Seattle Storm Prediction
Portland has been the major problem for Seattle this season. The Fire won 94-89 in Portland and 77-72 in Seattle before beating the Storm again 100-93 on August 8. All three games were competitive, but Portland has consistently made the decisive plays late.
That latest defeat was also the final game of Seattle's 11-game skid. Two nights later, the Storm responded by putting up 97 points against Chicago, giving the offense some badly needed confidence before getting another immediate opportunity against the team that had just beaten it.
Portland comes off a much more demanding game Wednesday against Minnesota. The Fire fell behind by 29 points before producing a furious second-half comeback, eventually losing 85-81 after cutting the deficit to one. Portland showed plenty of fight, but it now has to travel to Seattle on short rest after expending significant energy chasing the league's best team.
The scheduling advantage is meaningful. Seattle has been home since Monday and enters with three full days between games, while Portland played Wednesday night. The Storm also have three previous losses to draw from in this matchup, with none decided by more than seven points.

Seattle has been difficult to trust for most of the season, but the 97-point breakthrough against Chicago changes the immediate outlook. With additional rest, home court and a fourth opportunity to solve a Fire team that has repeatedly beaten them in close games, the Storm are positioned to turn their first win in nearly a month into consecutive victories.
