3:00pm ET / DETROIT PISTONS @ CLEVELAND CAVALIERS
Play on: OVER THE TOTAL
This play almost made it to KING CREOLE's Saturday GAMEDAY service
based on some tremendous OU Systems in the first game of the NBA
Playoffs. But with an extremely LOW series history in terms of total
points, we'll pass on the Late-Phone service... and just leave it up as
a slight OPINION Play. The first game of the first round is abbreviated
as the "1/1" game.
9-2 O/U since 2003: All 1/1 games in which the #1 SEED is favored by 12
< points (CAVS).... and 7-1 O/U when the OU Line is 190 < points.
Speaking of OU line, today's game between these Central Division rivals
is extremely low at only 175 points. What are the previous tendencies
with an OU line in the 170's?
13-5 O/U since 1990: All 1/1 game with an OU line of 178 or less
points.... 9-3 O/U since 1999.. and a PERFECT 3-0 O/U vs teams from the
SAME division.
NBA teams who went into their last game of the regular season on a
ROLL.... and LOST that last game have shown high-scoring tendencies in
their first Playoff game. That's the case for the Cavaliers, who lost
at home to Philly 111-110 in their last game.
6-1 O/U last 5 years: All 1/1 tems playing off a SU loss... and 3 or more SU wins before that (CAVS).
That SU loss (BUT and ATS win) also puts Cleveland in high-scoring company.
5-0 O/U since 1996: All 1/1 teams playing off a SU loss BUT an ATS win (CAVS)... when the OU line is 194 < points.
Thanks to all sharps who ROCKED with the KING on Wednesday night in Pro Basketball. Our 3*** NBA GAME OF THE YEAR was on the PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS... who beat up on Denver by 28 frickin points!
In last season's NBA PLAYOFFS, the handicapping team at KING CREOLE SPORTS finished a very PROFITABLE 32-19 ATS (63%).
