this game will be close as the spread suggests...rasheed wallace will be suspended after his first day back for his 16th technical...although everything points to the over which is set at 187...i see more value in the under....i only have 3 reasons for this -
1-det will be playing their 4th game in 5 days on a back 2back which means that normally the game would go over becuz once fatigue kicks in less defense will be played...but since this is only hamilton's 3rd game back as well as iversons second game back....it will still be some fresh legs on the court .
2- earlier this year the total was set to 191 which went over the total 8points as the score ended up nj winning 103-96. So the ? That stands out is why drop the total from 191 to 187 when the number went way over the total in the first game by damn near 10points...betting over 187 will be too easy and has less value....
3-the total is already dropping in my favor from 187 to 186.5
pick- under 188.5 with a lil insurance(2 point buy)
