This is a 10* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the OVER between the Chicago Bulls and the Boston Celtics.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant O/U ATS statistics:

As note that Chicago has seen the total go OVER the number in two of its last three after playing to three or more consecutive UNDERS, while Boston has seen the total go OVER the number in three of its last four after playing to five or more consecutive UNDERs.

The bottom line: Depending on where you got the line, Boston has seen the total go UNDER the number in ten straight. Chicago comes in having seen the total fall below the posted number in five straight. When these teams met on February 16th, the total also stay below the posted number in the Bulls 104-103 victory. Chicago has lost four straight and the Celtics have lost three of four. We're expecting these teams to push the pace from start to finish and for this one to fly OVER the number once it's all said and done.
