I am 2-0 (sort of) on Scottie Barnes bets posted here.

Here comes #3.   Barnes over/under on 2.5 assists.   Take the over at -155.    I really wish they would have set the over at 3.5 because it would have been over +100 and I would have been all over that (Not an official recommendation but strongly consider betting on him at the 5 assist milestone tonight at +350. )

Why?

Barnes was getting tons of assists in preseason and college, but Nick Nurse has been riding  FVV hard at over 38 minutes a game and he has been handling the ball a lot.   The Raps don’t really play a backup point in their rotation.  Tonight FVV is out and since Toronto is playing Detroit I think Nurse will be using Barnes more as a facilitator.

Also to be considered is Dwayne Casey always had a hard on to stick it to Toronto each time they play.   He will want to shut down Barnes to help Cade win ROY.   Expect Barnes to get doubled a lot tonight and he will find people.

*** I say 2-0 sort of, because my first recommendation — Barnes ROY at +600 is now paying out as the odds have fell to +250.   My regret is that I waited 3 games into the season to get +600.   He was +1200 to start and +800 after his strong second game.
