Premium Pick

In the second round of the NBA Playoffs, the OVER is 88-44 when the total is 210 to 219.5. Portland likes to run with its electric backcourt that is sixth in the NBA scoring, #12 in shooting, and eighth in three-point shooting. This, while the defense is #14 in points allowed. Portland is 11-5-1 OVER the total following a spread loss. Denver is on a 5-2 run OVER, scoring plenty of points despite playing a San Antonio squad that was #12 in points allowed. The total has sailed OVER the last four meetings between these teams, including 6-2 OVER on this court. And when the total is over 200 in the second round of the playoffs, Game 1 goes OVER at a 36-12 clip. Play the OVER.
