This is a 10* COAST-TO-COAST TOTAL EXPRESS on the OVER between the Orlando Magic and the Phoenix Suns.
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 Orlando has seen the total go OVER the number in ten of its last 16 after playing three consecutive home games and in nine of its last 14 overall when the total in the contest is greater than or equal to 220, while Phoenix has seen the total go OVER the number in (not surprisingly!) 31 of its last 44 against good offensive teams which score 106 plus points per contest (including in three of four this season) and in 25 of its last 39 after scoring 115 points or more in its previous contest (just lost 126-115 at home to Miami, the Suns fourth straight setback.
The bottom line: After going 2-3 on a five game trip, the Suns have so far squandered this home stand by going 0-2. With three more games to go in this stand and with the Eric Bledsoe ordeal finally in the rear view mirror, Phoenix won't be lacking for motivation today. Orlando snapped a two game slide with a convincing 112-99 win over the Knicks and will be looking to start this extended road trip off on the "right foot." With both teams pushing the pace and taking into account all of the above strong O/U trends, all signs do indeed point to the OVER as the savvy move in this contest.
