    Can someone shead some light on this game
     
    Why would the line be set at 187.5 when the first game only reached 169...and before you jump in I know Melb went to sleep in the last quarter, but I seriously don't see this game hitting any great hights.
     
    Melb has to fight fire with fire if they are to win , so IMO I believe defence will be there only form of attack.
     
    Any anyone help put more insight into this matter, thanks

    I think you are correct Rod, the game against Bris when they both decided to play defence only scored 88 points in the second half before the game went into OT and screwed the lot of us on the Under.
     
    The Tigers have to match the intensity on defence if they are to win, as we all know that Syd will play the same kind of defence they played in the first game.
     
    And quick question for you Rod (and don't mean to hassell you as I have already asked you in the WNBA forum), but do you cap WNBA games, and if so will this be done with units or straight up picks?
     
    Cheers and hope you are enjoying the Heat while in Aussie Land

    Tigers will can easily score 100 pts at home against any opponent in the league and due to their awful last quarter performance they will be more focused on their offensive play then their defence. This will be a tight game and the kings wont make this easy for the tigers, the play would be OVER but a kings win hopefully

    i wont bet sides for this game but will have 3 unit play on the over 189

    1 down just 2 more to go

    I really really like syd +2.5....... so tempted to go with the over, better record this season for the kings playin in VIC then at home. They've got a huge mental edge over the tigers after what happen in the first game to erase a double digit deficit and win by 20+   also they wont want to take this to four or five games. Coach gorj has read westovers cards and has gone all in, westover's lack of professionalism showed in game one getting involved with the crowd and not focusing on his players and making plays. It'll be a gametime decision but i know the kings have the 96 sweep fresh in their minds especially gorj.

    OVER 189 - 3 units

    KINGS +2.5 -

    Be careful with that OVER jboobiz. If this turns out to be a tight game as you predict (short line) then tight games tend to go UNDER even forgetting that this is a finals game.
