L.James o7.5 Rebs-111

We have a Western Conference Finals Rematch and of course we have an angle for betting LeBron James. LeBron has plenty of rest prior to this game and in the two playoff games he had 3 days of rest last season he recorded 11 and 12 boards respectively. He generally gets more aggressive on the glass and dips into the reserve tank in the Playoffs. Since he joined the Lakers he has never averaged more than 8.5 rebounds per game during the regular season, but in the Playoffs he has averaged a collective 9.9 per game. His line is set at 7.5 for Game 1, a number he has exceeded in 3 of 4 against Denver during the WCF with the lone miss at 7 and in 14 of 17 Playoff games last season. I’ll be taking the over in Game 1 where I expect him to dial up the effort and exceed 7.5 Rebounds.

Running this back until Brow can show me he can hit a 3. Since the All-Star Break, Davis has only hit a 3PT in 8/26 games (30%).
