After the first 3 games of the series stayed below the total, the offenses came to life in Game 4. The teams combined for 115 points in the first half and 227 for the game. That result didn't cause the total to climb. This total is still much lower than the totals at the start of the series.

The total is much lower than the games these teams have been playing all season. Clipper games average 226.8 points. Maverick games average 232.1 points. The Mavericks are 9-6 to the over off an upset loss as a favorite and the Clippers are 4-2 to the over off an upset win as an underdog. Go with the Over!
