NBA Totals for March 26th A pretty big schedule for a Monday. My number is the first number and the 2nd number is an average of some big internet books.
731 180.5 182.5
No DeRozan for Toronto.
733 192 192.5
735 193 193.5
Did have the chance at a higher number if one liked under as it was 195.5. Last game between these two was a very low scoring game but each team actually had 99 possessions which would be much higher than I would expect these teams to have.
737 183.5 182.5
No Ray Allen can't remember if I knew that when compiling my number to be honest.
739 205 207.5
I played the Knicks under which is always seems like a good idea to me but countered by their opposition is the Bucks. This opened at 209 and I was able to get that yesterday as it was already moving under shortly after opening. It gets some help but not as much as I hoped for with Amare doubtful.
Last 5 games right from NBA.com Knicks games have averaged 180 pts I think vs. the Bucks 209. But I've been on the Knicks under so I'm not surprised by the turn down in their games scoring. LG between these 2 was a shootout and flew over and I probably liked that under so don't want to get too carried away with the under here. D"Antoni was the coach for that game. I'm forced to like my bet with a good number. The play rests that there just won't be 100 possessions for each team here so that the Knicks are slower.
741 193 197.5
My numerical work likes it under but I haven't bet it under. The market is much higher and Bet Cris 198. The 4OT game hasn't seemed to effect the betting on the total just the side. Trying to understand the higher number of the sharp books it just might be that the Jazz games have been higher scoring past few weeks vs. their season average. The Nets really have been pretty consistent all year with an average of 191.5 for the year. The Jazz at 196 for the year but higher recently. I don't do adjustments when looking at that number for OT but I wasn't even looking at these number including the 4 OT game. I don't read into the average pts per game too much but I do think it sometimes can help explain the perception of teams and what number their games get lined at.
I think un 198 is a good bet but I'll let someone else whack it. I can miss this but I'll watch for steam under. Don't see how this number could be higher.
743 197.5 199
745 209 210
I cheated a little on my methods to get a higher total but not much really so surprised I don't think this was an under. I'm surprised then the number hasn't gone higher. No realy interest for me here in a bet.
747 181.5 181.5
Good luck today.
