Might be a idiotic question but just wondering why today for example bulls total is 202.5 and wizards is 212.5 and yet both 1st halves are 101.5???? I see this a lot where a game total is waaay below 1/2 on first half??? Anyone with some knowledge on this to help me understand would be great thanks...

some teams are known to foul ALOT at the end of the game to try and get a shot at a win..sooooooooooooooo, with all the extra foul shots/points the 2h over is usually higher than the 1h over...

Bomb and foul near the end of the game plus the potential for overtime plus it's a playoff game. Teams rarely give up, even down 10 with 12 seconds. Hope that helps Owens.

Owens....I'm thinking the discrepancy in the totals of the two games, even though both first half totals are pretty even, might be due to the fact that a team's (or both teams) tends to score more points or tends to score less points in the 2nd half, whichever the case may be. But what the heck do I know.......I'm like 1-11 on my last dozen totals bets in baseball!

Thanks guys for the replies..Like I said I've seen it a lot but usually the first half totals are higher than half of the game... Total 220. 1st half is 113.... Wizards game is 212.5 and 1st half is 102 same as bulls game with a 202 total.. Good luck all tonight
