I tell you, this has been just like stealing, and I see no change tonight.
Maybe the bookies have no choice in the way they post 1st half lines, but these are so wrong, it's not even funny. All season, the Bucks have pounded the total "over" in the first half. Then, they fall off in the second half, bringing the game total closer to it's projected number.
Although they play the lowly Cavs tonight, recent history shows that Cleveland plays the Bucks well. Cleveland hasn't put up a tremendous amount of points this season, but as I stated, they come to play in Milwaukee.
I expect another high output in the first half, going over the 91' by a few baskets. It was a nice test on Monday, as the Bucks played without Ray Allen, and I think they did okay. The scoring did fall off, but not by much, and that will improve tonight.
Also, I would recommend staying off the game line, and playing the 1st half, if you favor the Bucks tonight. You gan get them for 3, or 3', and that is a nice play. (I actually think the Bucks have a better shot at covering the game spread in the first half, than they do overall!
Staying with small unit plays with Allen out, I have the following:
(All plays 1st half)
Cle/Mil over 91'--------1 unit
Mil -3'------- 2 units
Mil 52 Cle 43
Also, if the 1st half total is within 4 points of the spread, either way, and the second half total is more than 90, take the under!
