Toronto Raptors at Detroit Pistons - Over 206.5 points @ 1.91 (WillHill) Two struggling teams face each other in what should be a high-scoring affair. Both teams have struggled defensively often giving up over 100 points, in particular Detroit who gave up 131 points to Denver in their last game. In each teams last five games they've given up plenty of points (108.4 ppg for Toronto, 112.8 ppg for Detroit) as well as scoring plenty (106.2 ppg for Toronto, 103.4 ppg for Detroit) and I feel both teams can score above 100 points here. With both teams ranking 28th and 29th for defensive efficiency, this should be a very offensive high scoring game.

Re: NBA - 16th March Picks Cleveland Cavaliers at Sacramento Kings - Under 212.5 points @ 1.952 (Pinnacle) The Cavaliers lost a low-scoring game against Oklahoma in their last game, only mustering 75 points in a 95-75 match-up. In contrast, Sacramento beat the Golden State Warriors 129-119 in a very high-scoring game. Cleveland have been playing terribly offensively, not getting over 90 points in their last 4 games, and they've managed to keep the games low-scoring, against some very high-scoring sides (Oklahoma, Golden State). While the Kings have gone over in their last 7 games, I think with Cleveland shooting badly, it will keep the score down. While it is to be noticed that both teams are pretty bad defensively, it should also be noted that they are both very poor offensively, ranking 28th (Cavaliers) and 25th (Kings) in offensive efficiency in the NBA, as well as both teams averaging less that 100 points per game. Also, both are below average in FG % and 3 point %. With all this, I expect the game to stay under the massive total.
