Result: Loss
This is a 10* play on the OVER between the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.

This particular play is based primarily on strong and relevant O/U ATS statistics:

As note that Boston has seen the total go OVER the number in four of its last six after playing to three or more consecutive UNDERs, while Minnesota has seen the total go OVER in 13 of its last 18 off an upset loss as a favorite.

The bottom line: We're expecting these two offensively talented clubs to finally put some points on the board and look for this one to go OVER as the game comes down the stretch.
