Sports and physics sometimes come together in a strange sort of way. Some call it mojo, momentum, or the hot hand. In any case, when Newton's law meets teams in the NBA playoffs, proves the theory that an object in motion tends to stay in motion. We have seen that with the Cleveland Cavaliers in their series vs. Boston. Through two games in the West, Golden State has looked equally unstoppable, posting 136 points in their last game. When a pair of teams meet in the NBA playoffs after beating the total in their previous series meeting by 20 points or more, but fewer than 50 points, and playing at home (using home so double value for each game is eliminated), they are 85-50-3 O/U in their next contest. There is a subset of this, which is 24-2 O/U also active in this contest. Take the OVER.
