4/19/2014 12:30 PM NBA Basketball 702 Toronto Raptors* Over 48½ -120 vs Brooklyn Nets for 1st Half

*Kind of sad to realize I made more during the pre-season than I did during the regular season (of course, it wasn't always like that - no, it wasn't always like that at all *SMH*), but I digress... Anyways, all this talk of 'playoff experience' or lack thereof being a detriment to the Raptors is totally bogus, if you ask me. If they were starting on the road against teams with storied playoff traditions like the Heat, Knicks, or Celtics, ok, maybe the nerves might show a bit, but at home against the Nets? I don't think so... I do think this series ends up going the distance but, in the meantime, the advantage (to start this game) most definitely goes to the Raptors.

From a practical standpoint, the Nets have been switched off for almost a week now (whether or not on purpose, only Jason Kidd knows for sure), so that most definitely works as a detriment to start the game, at least. Meanwhile, the Raptors have been steamrolling teams at home to start games the last little while (6-1 SU, 53.4 PF, 47.6 PA). Admittedly, a few of those games were against the bottom feeders of the Eastern Conference (MIL, PHI, BOS), but the others were against the likes of playoff bound teams such as OKC, IND, HOU, so not sure why a rather pedestrian road team like the Nets should pose much of a problem (47.1 PF, 50.6 PA 1H in their road contests this season). Plus, the Raptors never had much of a problem scoring against the Nets to start games this season (3-1 SU, 51.5 PF, 50.8 PA), so I don't see why that would change just because it's the "playoffs".

As far as matchups go, well, most of you know I'm not really an x's and o's kind of handicapper, but I will say the Raptors have the decided advantage inside (between Valanciunas and Hansborough, put backs and second chance opportunities should be abound), so let's hope for a good start to the game for the Raptors and take it from there.

Thanks braves - my condolences regarding the Lakers but hey, on the bright side, only a little bit longer til Kevin Love arrives... : )

1H Handicap -4.5 for 1st Half -105

*Easy to make the argument the Bobcats come out strong in front of their home fans facing elimination but, at the same time, the Heat are +9.7 1H through the first three games... and that doesn't just happen.

:cheers:

p.s. In the spirit of full disclosure, I actually am terrible at sides, but y'know.. I have a really hard time believing Lebron and the Heat don't come out swinging to break Charlotte's spirit...
