Mavs/Celts Total

[Hoo Train]

Quick question:

Any reason this game should not go over the 197 that I see this game listed at?

Boston does not have the type of team to try and play the slow down game it takes to get the MAVS out of rythem. Nor are they disciplined enough to begin with. I see Boston trying to play run and gun with the MAVS, thus a high scoring affair.

The Mavs at home, with some new enthusiasm b/c of the frenchman singing (they needed a mental lift with all the injuries they have endured), should come out of the gates fast and create an uptempo game that Boston will feed into.

Any opinions as this one seems to be a solid play?

Like the OVER, but 6 of the last 10 have gone under. Including the last 4.

the under seems to be the trend here when they are at dallas....plus the fact that boston is among the dead last in field goal percentage (shoot a lot of threes) and dallas zoned them up last time i saw them play at boston...if boston dont hit the threes the total is in jeopardy...when they played at boston there was a great pace for the over but the game went under and i think but decent margin....cooz

really like Dallas to run Celtics & their short bench tonight. No opinion on total.
