Advice and prediction
Preseason games are hard to gain much useful information on, but the Pelicans did treat both the games much more like regular season contests than normal.
Van Gundy and the Pelicans have preached defense all preseason and given the shortened training camps and the limited player availabilities throughout, under 229.5 seems like the best bet on the board.
Prediction: Raptors 114, Pelicans 110
