Pacers vs Raptors Ov 239 (Bet365, 0.75u)
Two teams who are playing at a blistering pace right now! The Raptors with Quickly and Barrett back in the lineup have quick moving and slashing players, a quick passer and floor spacer in Kelly Olynyk playing big minutes with a thin frontcourt. Little needs to be said for the PACErs desire to push and run on offense. They are trying to push more towards the end of the season
Celtics @ Bucks Un 228.5 (Bet365, 0.5u)
I expect this total to drop a little bit but not enough to play back at good value. Both teams are tightening their defense and playing slower on offense. The Bucks will need this game, we will see who the Celtics roll out. Most Celtics games have been trending under from opening to close, so I am buying into that with more than 24 hours till tip in this one at a small exposure.
Pistons @ 76ers Ov 219.5 (DraftKings, 0.75u)
With Embiid back, I will be backing 76ers and overs in a lot of ways until the market catches up (similar to the Mavs unders recently). Embiid gets to the foul line relentlessly, opens up so much space on the floor for his teammates, and his the tide that raises all boats as we see Maxey and Harris get back to their ideal roles and thrive again. The Pistons will launch 3s and play quick, especially with Ivey being the lead ball handler recently. This total should climb.
Thunder -2 (DraftKings, 0.5u)
I think SGA returns and Jdub return for the final 4 games at home. Nuff said. Small bet because I dont know for sure, but market indicates they will.
