Stephen Nover's NBA Early Game Discount Casher - 89% NBA Hot Streak!
(NBA) Brooklyn vs. Toronto,
Total: 226.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
The oddsmaker has reacted to the Raptors' 134-110 Game 1 victory against the Nets by adjusting the total four points. 
I don't believe that's warranted. 
The Raptors rank either first or second in the NBA in fewest points allowed, defensive field goal percentage and 3-point defense. This is the best defense in the NBA and the scrappy, but scrub-type Nets aren't going to be able to dent it. 
The Nets know they have to play more intense defense. It was too much culture shock for them going from just playing the Trail Blazers to the Raptors' tight defense. I think they will be better prepared. I also don't expect Fred Van Vleet to put up a career playoff-best 30 points when he hit 8 3-pointers against the Nets in the opening game. 
The Raptors-Nets met four times during the regular season. The total never was this high in any of those games. The teams averaged 216 points in those games.
