It's an action-packed Sunday in the NBA Playoffs today with 8 teams hitting the hardwood. I've selected a total of 3 games for my Mega Parlay, with one slightly controversial pick. Continue reading below to see it.
Be sure to also check our NBA predictions page for picks on the Spread and Total for all 4 games being played, but without wasting any more time let's jump into my Parlay now.
Under 237 Total Points in Kings @ Warriors (-108)
The Kings and Warriors were both top 10 teams in terms of offensive rating during the regular season and were both 14th or worse in defensive rating. Therefore, this series was slated to be an offensive clinic but turns out it's been the complete opposite. Through the first 3 games of the series, the last 2 have gone under the total by an average of 24.5 points. I believe the series will continue to trend in the direction of lower scoring affairs, especially if the Kings continue their 3-point shooting woes. After shooting 37.5% from downtown in Game 1, Sacramento followed up with games of 23.7% and 23.4%. They aren't shying away from their approach either as their attempts increased from 32 to 38 to 47 in Game 3. The Kings may have been the most efficient team on offense during the regular season, but the playoffs are another animal. Look for the Warriors to put the clamps on the Kings defensively.
