Phoenix @ Atlanta under 218.5
The first meeting b/w these teams ended 112-82...admittedly they shot a combined 42% which isn't great (although Phoenix shot 50.6%), but Atlanta just don't score enough to warrant this kind of number.
Only 3 Atlanta home games all season have gone over this number...Two of them were OT games!...LA 108-114 Atlanta was a 'normal' game until a 39-35 last 1/4!
Even in their last home game, Washington hit 122, shot 59.7%, 8-12 3's, 39 FT's and a 62 point last 1/4...and even that game didn't go over this number!
Are Phoenix capable of putting up these numbers?...Of course they are, but given the game threatens to be a blow-out, it's not likely there will be much scoring in the last 3-4 minutes of this game.
Atlanta score only 87.9 ppg on no rest this season, their games av. only 186.1.
