The WNBA regular season is almost over, and so the playoff picture is coming into sharper view.

In the East, Connecticut has clinched the #1 seed and Washington the #4, which means that they will play each other in the opening round with Conn. having home court advantage.

The other East first round series will be Detroit vs. Indiana, with the home court yet to be determined. The Shock are a game ahead of Indiana and need any combination of three Shock wins or Fever losses to clinch second place.

In the West, Los Angeles, Sacramento and Seattle are all in, with Houston and Phoenix battling for the fourth and final postseason spot. Los Angeles will have home court against whoever ends up #4, while Sacto. will have the same against the #3 seed.
