The NBA playoffs are a war of attrition. Teams wear down, they get tired, and in the worst-case scenarios, they often get hurt as we saw from Milwaukee Bucks swingman Khris Middleton who tore his MCL in the first round of the playoffs.
We’ve reached Game 6 of the Eastern Conference semifinals between the Bucks and Boston Celtics and the adjustments are all but done. The only thing left to do is out-execute one another, far from easy when you’re looking at a matchup between two of the NBA’s top defenses.David Butler II/USA TODAY Sports
The Bucks have the NBA’s best playoff defense , while the Celtics were the league’s best defense during the regular season . Predictably, this hasn’t been a high-scoring series and we should expect that to continue in Game 6. Unders have been historically profitable in the NBA postseason, going 81 for the last 144 . That gives bettors a big enough edge to break the 52.38% threshold needed to make a profit.
In a crucial Game 6, I’ll take the Under 211.5 in what should be a low-scoring war with the Bucks looking to close out the series and the Celtics looking to keep their season alive.
