Yes there will be four superstars on the court so perhaps the oddsmaker is justified in putting out a total this large.

But this also is a playoff game, with defense and intensity at its highest, plus there is a rust factor. The Bucks haven't played in a week. The Nets last played five days ago. 

Milwaukee had the fifth-best defensive field goal percentage in the league. The Bucks held Miami to 96 points per game during their four-game sweep. That's 12 points below what the Heat averaged during the regular season. Jrue Holiday is an ace defender. He can neutralize James Harden. 

The Nets won't have Jeff Green. Sure Green isn't Harden, Kyrie Irving or Kevin Durant. Still, he's Brooklyn's fourth-leading scorer. Green provides continuity having played in 68 games, second-most on the Nets, and versatility. Green's absence could mean minutes for DeAndre Jordan, who is an Under bettor's best friend. Jordan is a tremendous shot-blocker who has no offensive game. His shooting range is about two feet. 

The Nets have stiffened their defense lately, holding foes to 109 points or fewer in five of the past seven games.
