Knicks/Bucks over 197

[Covy]

Any way this doesnt hit?

If knicks decide to play D for once it wont hit, I think there in the works to try something different because what there doing isnt working. They already showed they can play good D and if they do it goes under. If they play there normal game then it will go way over.

I can see a bigger offensive outburst from NY but not too much D..Melo and Amare aren't know for it plus D'Antoni doesn't even know what defense stands for

They played each other a few days ago on the 20th and the total was 195...just as a heads up

Yea and bucks were home and bucks won by 5 ,100-95

I'm predicting 194-195 around there. I'd stay away from this game. Anything with Knicks, I'm scared now.

LOL

Seems like the books are basing the total off their game earlier this week where it went 195

Knicks and Magic combined for 210 on Wednesday

This is the same Bucks team that failed to reach 40 points in a half twice in one week. And the Magic are far superior offensively and statistically they arent all that much better on D.

65% of MIL games go under and NY is actually 50% (believe it or not) so I would assume that this will go over just because they are playing NY. This line is fairly sharp and I've got a projected total of about 196 with these two averaging 192 between the two in the last five. Another number that I generate that is based purely on pace has it at 194 and also takes into account who's the home/away. Finally I generate a number of the avg total for these teams going back at least 5 games...avg total is 195 and this line opened at 196 so I don't think this is a bad line. It's right on to what they lines makers expect the pace to be.

Does this mean that this game is going to go under 100%...no, but people need to be careful in assuming that because the line is so low it must be an easy over, I remember the CHI/MIL game a couple weeks ago that was set so low that everyone was calling an over. I think it closed at 177 and the total was 174, so buyer beware.

And with that, everybody who had the under is in a state of shock.
