over 155.5 Chi/Atl 33 bags very similar to my write-up of the Indy game yesterday in that you can throw the past 2 games these teams played against each other out the window and coaches play a heavy hand in this outcome. I love the fact that when these teams met on July 25th and Aug 10th both games went under giving us this tasty total today. If you look closely at those meetings both teams were not at the level they are now: Atl was recently without their head coach and beggining their slide while Chi had no EDD nor VDS and the game went under, they met again when Atl was at the tail end of a brutal rd schedule having played 4 games in 6 days sending them from Phx, to LA, to Sea and then all the way to Chi makes me tired just thinking about it and the game went under. Now we get 2 healthier teams with scorers all over the floor, Atl hammering the rock down low and rebounding for 2nd chance points and Chi having sharp shooters and the great ability to get to the FT line. Like I said yesterday, this series does have a 72-63 game in it it's just not today. I was really waiting to see how the games played out yesterday b/c of this unusual condensed season that finished nearly a month earlier than normal, and what I saw is a ton of 2H points in both games as everyone realized the impact of a short 3 game playoff series so threw defense out the window and cranked up the offense 2H as going down 1-0 is almost a death sentence. The clincher for me is Atl is going to be blacked out and rocking as they really haven't had a big home game in a long time b/c they were either on the rd or playing at the Georgia Tech arena AND most importantly is Michael Cooper as he has preached conditioning and running all season long so that his team can simply wear down any other team in the 2H b/c they will try to run you out of the building, I love that fact for this over b/c I feel even if we get the typical slow going 70pt 1H we surely can get the 90pt 2H with the 50+pt 4th qtr  to secure the win. This is dicey for me b/c I built my empire on unders and will switch very soon in these playoffs but I cannot ignore the past results having no true indication, the pace of the game the coaches will set, the proclivity of early games being defined by offensive rhythm at some point and the amount of good shooters all over the floor and once again this low attainable total. I'd be shocked if this was a 74-70 grinder and it would cost me if it is but my money says we get a game that goes over with 2 minutes left in the 4th and Hayes will be the reason. GL peeps
