H2H TRENDS

  • Home team is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings.
  • Over is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings in Toronto.
  • Underdog is 9-3 ATS in the last 12 meetings.

THE RUB

  • Milwaukee sped out to a 10-point lead in Game 5 before falling at home 104-99. The Bucks out-rebounded the Raptors 58-52 and shot 45% from the field.
  • The Raptors have found a way to curb the Giannis Euro-Step, placing Gasol, Siakim and Ibaka (or other) as a trio in the paint, avoiding the left-right movement of  Giannis, and it’s working.
  • With Giannis unable to drive and score in the paint as per usual, the pressure is placed further on outside shooting, with Giannis reaching the trio and dishing to the three, forcing shooters to make shots. It’s making the shots that’s been the problem for the Bucks.
  • These are the top two rated teams in defensively this postseason so Unders is nice, with the Raptors keeping opponents points skinny at home.

GAME PICK  – Toronto ML – WIN & Under 212.5 – WIN

PLAYER PROP  –  GIANNIS UNDER 13.5 REBOUNDS (Result = 11 Rebounds) – WIN
