Pelicans 1H +4 -110 (1.5x); ML +170 (0.5x)
Pelicans/Raptors 1H Over 118 (1.5x)
I’m on the fence about taking New Orleans for the full game. My read is that the Pelicans start strong and get a lot of quick buckets in the first half. They like to push the tempo and my guess is they won’t meet much resistance from Toronto early on. I see the game tightening up and slowing down in the second half. My gut tells me the Pelicans go cold late and the Raptors pull away for an opening night win.
As for the late game, not sure I have much interest in betting it. It looks like the Lakers will get the job done.
