Bucks vs. Raptors
UNDER 212½
Toronto is on the brink of making their first NBA Finals appearance. While that is a big story, those betting basketball have lowered the total from 213 to 211.5 (now 212.5). If not for the double OT in Game 3, the Under would be 3-2 in the series. While I agree with the idea that if the Raptors are to win, the game would probably need to be an Under, look for both to go all out. Milwaukee is 13-4 OVER playing with triple revenge and Toronto is 13-5 OVER at home after three or more straight wins.

SPORTS DATA QUERY GROUP
Event: (511) Milwaukee Bucks at (512) Toronto Raptors
Sport/League: NBA
Date/Time: May 25, 2019 8PM EDT
Play: Total Under 212.0 (-110)
The Bucks are off two bad losses and are facing elimination. The linesmakers rate the game a virtual toss-up. Milwaukee is 0-9-1 OU with rest when they are off two double-digit ATS losses and the line is within three-points of pick. The lone push was an overtime game, so this should really be 0-10 OU.
Milwaukee is also 0-6 OU (-12.33 ppg) as a road dog with rest off a loss as a favorite in which they led at the end of each of the first three quarters, 0-6 OU (-14.58 ppg) on the road off a home game in which Khris Middleton shot worse than 33 percent from the field, and 0-6 OU when the line is within 3 of pick and they are seeking same-season revenge for a home loss, staying UNDER by an average of a whopping 20.25 ppg.
The Raptors were behind 32-22 at the end of the first quarter in Thursday’s game five, but they outscored the Bucks 33-24 in the final quarter to grab the 105-99 win. This qualifies them for a playoff-only system that has not lost since the 2008-09 season.
In the playoffs, home teams with less than two days rest are 0-23 OU when they are off a game in which they trailed at the end of the third quarter and then scored greater than eight points more in the fourth quarter than they did in the first quarter while recording more than a dozen assists.
The average OU margin in these 23 games is minus 15.59 ppg. Since the start of last season’s playoffs, this system has been active three times and the games have stayed under by 26.5, 24 and 18 points respectively. Note that two of the three games involved the Bucks.
As a team, the Raptors are 0-11 OU (-12.00 ppg) when the line is within three of pick with rest off a win as a dog in which they were outscored in the paint by double digits, 0-10 OU (-12.95 ppg) at home when the line is within three of pick off a road win in which they made fewer field goals than their opponent, 0-7 OU (-14.00 ppg) as a favorite off a win as a road dog and Kyle Lowry attempted more three pointers than two pointers, and 0-7 OU as a favorite off a road game in which Kawhi Leonard shot under 50 percent was their high scorer, staying UNDERb by an average of 19.50 ppg.
The last time this one was active was game seven of their series vs the 76ers - a 92-90 win with the OU line at 208. That’s a 26-point UNDER.
We are on the UNDER.

Event: (923) Texas Rangers at (924) Los Angeles Angels
Sport/League: MLB
Date/Time: May 25, 2019 10PM EDT
Play: Texas Rangers +117
As usual, early money on the Angels at home. This has been a constant all season. In this instance, I think it's misplaced. Mike Minor outgrades Tyler Skaggs for both the season to date and on recent form. Skaggs is tough at home but Minor has been just fine on the road and I see him owning an edge here. The Halos continue to perform very poorly against lefties, and are now 4-13 for the season following the loss on Friday evening. About the only plus for the Angels here is that Texas has been a bad road team. But the Rangers are playing much better ball right now and I see them having considerable value as a decently priced underdog here.
