I land in Vegas Sunday afternoon.. I'm thinking of rounding the troops and telling my boys to all lay down on the over in this match. I think this one could be a track meet.
Line opened up at 203, and was quickly bet by the sharps up to 204.5. San Antonio down the stretch was killing overs, and OKC can run with the best of them too. First game, I think they let it fly.
Let me know if I'm crazy, but I'm likely laying a dime and if it doesn't hit, I'll treat it like a vacation and hang by the pool. But if it hits, I'll try and roll it into a heater.

first 2 games will be unders, just liking the MIA-IND matchup.
SA will try to slow down OKC because they know they dont have a chance running with those young legs. And SA is great both on slow and fast pace, but in this series slow pace will be better for them, just to throw OKC out of comfort zone.
game 3&4 in OKC will be overs since the host usually is dictating the tempo.

And the line is an alarmingly high total of 204.5 because this will be a snail fest? This is a playoff game. Yesterday we had a total of 181. Does a total this high not invite under action?

these are regular season numbers. Big difference because they will play OKC 7 times eventually, in the next 10 days.
OK, so they're not willing to run over a number of games in a condensced space of time?
between march 21st & 31st, SAS played 7 games and scored 116, 104, 89, 93, 107, 117 & 112 pt totals (an average of 105.43 pts/game). Thats 5 scores north of 100 pts over 7 games in 11 days.
between april 12th & 22nd, SAS played 7 games and scored 107, 105, 120, 112, 127, 121 & 114 pt totals (an average of 115.1 pts/game). That's 7 scored north of 100 pts over 7 games in 11 days.
Yep, theyre werent willing to run in a lot of games over a short space of time even once this season let alone twice, so why are they going to now...oops, that wasn't the case, was it?.

Parker is going to push the ball whenever he is the game as usual...that's not going to change. And why would they want it to, most of the time he is a one man fast break and surely they don't want RW to be able to rest on D. They are going to make him work if he's guarding Parker and both guys will be chasing each other around all series.

^^^that said, I'm not interested in any Under in this series, before the arrival of the elimination games (specifically, game 6/7). Until then, I'll either bet the Over (as long as I'm getting a good line), or pass.

The game had the perfect pace for being an Over result. 20 1st h TOs (that's 20 FG attempts missed out on, in a half that totaled over 90 pts) and OKC going 4 mins scoreless at the beginning of both the 1st & 4th periods is what allowed it to creep Under.
Don't think Game 2 will see 20 1st h TOs, nor do I think OKC will go a combined 8 mins scoreless, but I do think you'll see it played at the same fast pace.And of course each team won't be off a 5+ day layoff for the next game.
But of course I don't think what I have observed here will stop any Under backers going back to the well. GL to those who do, I think you'll need it.

congrats to any Under bettors who made a note of my observations in the above post, and kept away from Game 2's Under.
To those who didn't, better luck next time (just try and not make next time another Under for a non-elimination game in this series, unless the line is outrageously high). This series is Over or no play for the non-elim games. Game 1's sub-200 scoring was a fluke result, most likely down to the longish layoffs for both teams.
