This is an 8* TOTAL EXPRESS on the UNDER between the Portland Trailblazers and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.
This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics and common sense:
As note that Portland has seen the total go UNDER the number in six of eight already this year after playing three consecutive road games and interestingly in 12 of 21 against good offensive teams which score 106 plus points per contest, while Minnesota has seen the total go UNDER the number in ten of 15 against clubs with winning records this season and in five of eight after three or more consecutive SU victories.
The bottom line: The Blazers will be hungry here, they've lost two straight and they also play with revenge after dropping the first in this series in December. The Wolves could have a letdown here after four straight victories. When you add it all up and take into account the above O/U trends, all signs do indeed point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
