This is why I gamble on sports, the numbers aspect.
I'm a numbers geek, always have been since a kid.
I make my living also crunching numbers, it's who I am, it's what I do.
OK, this is what I found, and I am going to share.
The Bucks are dead last in the NBA is o-rating, Bucks are 29th in the league in scoring, and are averaging only 84.8 points in their last five games.
The Bucks are playing the Raptors in their building.
The Raptors are the sixth best team in d-rating, the Raptors are 4th in the NBA in points allowed (as in fewest), and in their last nine games the Raptors have allowed on the average 87.9 points.
The TT for the Bucks at 5Dimes currently sits at 88.5
Once again, the Bucks are the shittiest (one of) teams shooting and scoring. They have been averaging 84.8 lately. The Raptors are one of the best teams in the league in defense, and they are giving up just 87.9 lately, and that 87.9 is to average teams, the Bucks are below average.
Knowing everything I just told you, tell me why (too late I already did) I should not hammer the TT under Bucks 88.5 (and if you say the Bucks are due, I will smack you.)
Good luck with all your plays, you can tail this info, you can fade this info, or you can pass.
It's all rock and roll to me.
