Playoffs are Determined
Here are the match-ups for the first round of the WNBA Playoffs - we start with the Conference Semifinals:
Eastern Conference
#1 Indiana vs. #4 Washington
#2 Atlanta vs. #3 Detroit
Western Conference
#1 Phoenix vs. #4 San Antonio
#2 Seattle vs. #3 Los Angeles
In both the Conference Semifinals and Conference Finals, the matched teams play each other three times. The first game is played at the location of the lower-seeded teams, the second and (if necessary) the third games are played at the higher-seeded team.
And now, the upcoming schedule of the Atlanta-Detroit Eastern Conference Semi-Final.

O yes we are going to win this playoff baby!!!
We've beaten Detroit but everyone ups their game in post-season so we have to support the Dream 110%. I'm looking forward to Dream vs. ??? in the Eastern Conference Finals. Let's go Dream!!
Detroit is on a roll despite falling behind Chicago in the first half last night. Don't know when Smith is returning but don't take 'em for granted. GO DREAM!
Two things: I'd be interested to see how any increase (outside of these being playoff games) might be a result of the games being played at Gwinnett. Second, the sports staff member who emailed me after the Claw article indicated that their paper would cover the team a lot more if they moved there. While this is not a move, I'd look for increased coverage via the Gwinnett paper.
Oh, which reminds me...AJC had nothing about the Dream clinching a playoff spot as of yesterday afternoon. Not that we're surprised.
