Bets we’re taking now, more detailed explanation coming later.
- Hawks/Heat 1Q under 56, 1.5 units
- There’s little to no reason for me to believe this game will “start fast.” The Heat are comfortable playing their style of basketball and they absolutely locked down Trae last time. Trae will do better in Game 2 but this should still tipoff with another cautious, defense-oriented feel.
- Timberwolves +7, 1 units
- Minnesota just matches up too well with Memphis and they’re 3 point shooting can keep them in any contest. Scary team – I think they keep it close or win again.
