ROGERS' HUGE *10* TOTAL: 4-0 L4 NBA TOTALS!
(NBA) Boston vs. Milwaukee,
Total: 211.00 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Boston gave Game 5 away at home and now finds itself in a situation where it must beat Milwaukee two straight times. The Celtics were up by 14 in the fourth quarter on Wednesday, but could not hold and some really lousy play down the stretch cost them that game. The Bucks' last two wins in this series have been by five total points though and I don’t want to play them either tonight.

After Milwaukee’s first eight playoff games all went Under, the Over has been the winning bet in each of the last two games here. There were 224 and 217 points scored in those games. Look for less tonight. Jayson Tatum had 34 points in the last game for Boston. But he’s clearly been bothered by a wrist injury and won’t match that in Game 6.

It’s interesting that the two Overs in this series have come with Boston’s Robert Williams III on the bench. Williams could be back for Game 6. That would be huge for Boston to have one of its premier defenders back in the lineup. Remember though that the Celtics led the NBA in scoring defense during the regular season.

Milwaukee is averaging only 101.6 points per game in this series while shooting 42.7%. Pretty amazing that they are in a position to move on. Giannis Antetokounmpo can’t be counted on for 40 points every night though and Kris Middleton remains out.

Games in this series have averaged only 206 points. Take the Under.
