Jazz UNDER 183
Bucks OVER 195
Some snippets from Covers:
Under is 7-2 in Utah's last 9
Under is 5-2 in the last 7 meetings
Under is 10-3 in Seattle's last 13
Jazz and Sonics both allowing 90 or less average last 5. Sonics are scoring 101 a game in their last 5 but there are 2 games against Atlanta and Orlando where they scored 233 points combined (considering neither one of those 2 knows what defense is...I lean to the Jazz D being able to hold up their end of the bargain and keep Seattle in check). Utah is also 5-0 ATS L5 against the Sonics including a W in Seattle on Feb 25th. The Jazz played last night but they are above .500 on 0 days rest and the Sonics are just 4-7 ATS on 2 days rest so I figure the Sonics won't be the ones dictating the pace of the game.
As for the Bucks/Warriors...more snippets from Covers:
Over is 23-8 overall L31 for the Bucks
Under is 10-3-1 in GS's L14 overall
OK so the Warriors tend to trend under as of late but Milwaukee is an over magnet. Look at thesee recent scores: 112-101, 103-104, 111-123, 99-100, 100-103, 111-117 ALL in their last 6 games. They're averaging 105 and giving up 106. Golden State is 4-0 L4 ATS holding opponents in the 80's but against a team I compare to the Bucks defensively (Orlando) they were able to put up 110 on the board and to my knowledge the Magic were without McGrady for that game. The Warriors are also averaging 95.4 a game L5 and two of those games were against San Antonio and Houston, two teams known for low scoring affairs. I see a track meet tonight in this one.
Any opinions appreciated...I may even jump on the Jazz +6 but with Seattle's recent success ATS I may pass. Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone tonight.
