SMB is expected to bounce back in Game 2 with the current lines:
SMB -5.5, moneyline at 1.44
Total is set at 184.5, which is quite low compared to the previous game’s 192.5.
What’s your take on this one? Do you see SMB evening the series and covering the spread?
And for the total, are we looking at another low-scoring affair? Last game both teams only combined for 144, way under the line.
Whether Ginebra wasn't able to make a rally and lost Game 1 instead, it will be a tough pick for me to put a bet on SMB -5.5 this Game 2. The possibility of SMB bouncing back at Game 2 is surely possible with a high chance (that's why bookies' algorithm put around 1.44-1.45 odds on them at Moneyline), but I expect again a close game. Ginebra is a team known to always make a big rally at the end.
How about a parlay?
