Boston are 4th worst in the league for 3 pt % allowed...their perimeter defense is terrible (Ricky Davis!) and the Kings will take full advantage.

Det @ NYK under 180.5
No real trends here (Actually some pretty strong trends that favour the over), but don't see either of these teams reaching 90 tonight.
The last meeting in NY totalled 157 in OT!!! I realise this was before the trade, and Marbury/Hardaway have definately brought more scoring, but Houston is out, and Okur is out for Det. These 2 players went 14-25 combined for 34 points. Detroit know that to get back on the winning track they have to do it with their defense.
Had a change of heart on Milwaukee. Not playing them. The whole trade and lack of defense thing is scaring me off, but here are the trends I was looking at if anyone's interested.
League: 11-21-2 (Av. loss 10.4) away 5+ dog off 15+ ats loss as home 4- fav. [Orl]
6-13 (Av. loss 10.8) if opp off ats loss.
1-7-2 (Av. loss 12.6) if opp were last dogs.
1-5 (Av. loss 14.8) if opp lost ats as dogs.
