Phoenix +5 2nd H -105
We have a Houston team shooting 51.9% yet still down at HT. They are down because of the solid defense Phoenix is playing.
The Mercury are shooting only 38.2% but as I said are playing good defense, have 3 less turnovers, & have a 2 pt advantage with points in the paint.
I expect them to keep up the stiff defense as they held the Comets to only 27 shots in the 1st H & push their shooting % up as they were coming on late in the half as they went on a run to get the lead.
They also have the depth advantage here as the Comets have only gone 7 deep so far while the Mercury have gone 11 deep with scoring from 8 of the 11.
I also like:
Over 68.5 Houston-Phoenix 2nd H.
They have 65 pts with one team not shooting that good. I see Houston staying between the 45%-50% range & Phoenix increasing their shooting a tad. I think this one gets around 73 in the 2nd H.
