Indiana Fever vs. Toronto Tempo Prediction

I’m on the over in this game. It’s a big number for the Fever to lay but I’d lay it if I was on the side, but the Tempo have shown ability to cover bigger numbers in spots, the defense is just an issue but we’ve seen Toronto chip in points in spots as well to be able to get us up and over the total in a lot of these games. All in all, I think the two combine for an over here so give me the over.
