ASA top play on 10* UNDER 209.5 Dallas Mavericks at Minnesota Timberwolves, 8:30 PM ET - We admittedly were wrong on our last Total bet on this series as they Over never came close, but one critical aspect of that game has us on the Under here. Both teams made a conscious effort to play at a very slow pace as they combined for only 155 field goal attempts. To put that into perspective, the league average was 177 during the regular season. Minnesota had a great shooting performance at 53%, the Mavs were well below expectations at 42%. We are betting these two teams slow the tempo in this elimination game and when they shoot near their series averages of 48.8% (Mavericks) and 46.5% (Wolves) this game easily stays Under. In the first two games of this series these two teams combined for 176 and 169 field goal attempts and totaled 213 and 217 points. We like a low scoring game here.
