Rav's First 4U Play of the NBA Playoffs

The NBA Playoffs have been delivering some unbelievable product so far this season. Yes, there are the occasional blowouts where one team is just on fire while the other just quivers up and takes it up the ass, but I think it's fair to say that most the games have been very fun and enjoyable to watch. 

If you've been following my betting whatsoever this playoffs, I've been getting into liking totals a lot more than I did in the regular season. I feel like I have always been a totals guy in a way, and a lot of times they seems way easier to cap than most people give it credit for. 

I was on both totals yesterday. Both unders. They both lost. Biev gave me a ton of shit for it on The Yap yesterday but he's been right: My total betting has been horeshit the last week. 

2-3 card to start the week. Getting Lakers ML would've hit so hard and they definitely had their oppurtunity to take that game, but the Thunder are just too good. 

Both of those totals had live unders at least 20 points below the opening game line yesterday and both managed to squeak over. The Pistons/Cavaliers total yielded the more ridiculous result with the Cavaliers controlling most of the game by 20+, at least in the third and most of the fourth, all to let the Pistons scrap their way back in it with turnovers late in the fourth. It arguably should have been a 5-0 day.

Which is why ... we have to do this:

After Game 1 of this series was a close, hard-fought 104-102 victory for the Timberwolves in San Antonio, the last three games have soared over it's totals and this total of 219.5. The Spurs have put up 133, 115 and 109 while Minnesota has exploded for 114 and 108 in the last two games. With Wembanyama back in the fold for San Antonio and Minnesota pulling through to tie the series two nights ago, I have a feeling the Spurs put belt to ass tonight and lock down the T-Wolves offense. And with De'Aaron Fox potentially not playing tonight as well (doubtful), that removes a clear traffic cone on defense and gives Dylan Harper, a much better guard defender, more minutes to support this under hitting.

Get into the total well with me. You know you want to. Three straight overs in this series ... both overs barely hitting yesterday (which was fuckin bullshit) ...  we are due for an under to go our way. LGN and BOL if tailing.
