NBA Friday

[bozzers corner]

Another total for you Jock 8o Washington/Atlanta total is 210.....they played a week ago and went for 138-124....freak result....average in the last 9 games except that one is 183.....they have had totals of 156 and 203 this year when playing each....take the freak result out and you's be looking at 15 points lower for the total :ok

Re: NBA Friday Think we'll have to agree to disagree here, Bozzer. Put on a bet this morning: Washington Wizards v Atlanta Hawks Over [email protected] (Bet365) Wizards went (more or less) comfortably over the posted total in last 4 (no OTs) scoring on average 112.50 pts and allowing 117.75 per game. Pressure is off and entire team is in good shape averaging 49.50% shooting from the field (last 4). Hawks went over posted total in 3 of last 4 (no OTs). That one trendbreaker was against Toronto whose totals are usually in the 165-175pts area. Atlanta's scoring average (last 4) is 107.50 pts per game while allowing on average 113.25 pts per game against them. They've averaged 47.75% shooting from the field (last 4). --------------- Rarely bet over, but in this case neither Hawks nor Wizards have anything but pride and pleasure to play for anymore - and it shows. Not least when they met just one week ago and scored a whopping 262 pts (138:124) combined! Expect another fastpaced game with lots of accurate shots, where defense will be the last thing players from either team will be thinking about.
