The two teams expected to fulfill in the Eastern Conference Finals will do just that beginning tonight when the Toronto Raptors traveling to Milwaukee to the opening match of this series. The total opened at 218 and is now 217.5 using two-thirds of the wagers coming in around the under in a bit of a surprise, since the public will like overs, but not so far in this one.
The most surprising thing in relation to the total is not the variety of wagers available on the beneath, but rather is the lack of motion, as.5 is not that large of a movement taking into consideration the amount of wagers, especially for a playoff game where more bettors are involved on a regular basis.
The teams were pretty inconsistent with their regular season matches, as the Bucks won the first game 124-109, but escaped using a 104-99 victory in Toronto in the rematch. The Raptors came off with a 123-116 victory in Milwaukee and the Bucks took the season series with a 105-92 win in Toronto in January, so it has been 3.5 months since the teams faced off.
There are two or three different methods of looking at this one, with the most evident being the two games played in Milwaukee were definitely the two highest-scoring games the teams have played, while both in Toronto were defensive struggles.
The first game found 198 attempted field goals, which was easily the greatest of those 3 matches, as the others watched 181, 163 and 172. There were 27 and 30 joint free throws attempted in the 2 games that landed beneath the total and 47 and 58 foul shots shot from both games which landed over the number, so once more, a correlation between free throws and overs comes into play.
Together with the Bucks stinking it up offensively against the Celtics, need to believe they will put a little more focus on crime here, but the secret is how the Raptors strategy the game, as they lost both low-scoring matches and split both which watched more points, so could see Toronto attempting to play in a quicker tempo. Toronto added Gasol since the Bucks watched them while Milwaukee added Mirotic in the deadline.
A small game to get a grip on, but going to take a shot on the over. Can’t ignore the two games played in Milwaukee and would not be surprised to see the Raptors try to match Milwaukee on the scoreboard.
