Denver at Portland
(NCAAB) Pioneers (DEN) vs. Pilots (PORT),
Total: 148.50 | -105.00 Under
Result: Loss
While we're not sure either can escape the gravity pull of the other, we have to wonder if there is enough scoring punch on the floor for these sides to approach 150 on the "totals" side. In the case of the Pioneers, they don't hit the Chiles Center with much momentum, just blown out by CS Northridge and Utah Tech in the Montana tourney. Offense only 57 ppg across those two; for the season, very modest offensive numbers, including 42.4% from the floor and 32.3% triples. The Pilots don't seem much better, scoring only at 68.1 ppg, shooting a mere 41% from the floor and 31.8% from deep, making it hard for Shantay Legans to implement the uptempo style he desires.
