This is an 8* TOP TOTAL on the UNDER between the Brooklyn Nets and the Orlando Magic.

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 always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

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

As note that Brooklyn has seen the total go UNDER the number in nine of its last 15 after a win by ten points or more (just beat the Hawks 116-104), while Orlando has seen the total go UNDER the number in interestingly 25 of its last 44 against poor defensive teams which allow 106-plus points per contest.

The bottom line: With a game at home against the Cavaliers tomorrow night, we think the Nets' focus on tonight's contest will be less than 100%. Orlando could easily be caught looking ahead here as well with two whole nights off before a game at home against San Antonio. The situation and the numbers do both indeed point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
