Game Analysis
OMEGA's independent line (-4.0 / 37.5) brackets the market: the spread agrees within a half point but the total runs 2.0 points under the posted 39.5. Pittsburgh's 3-0 home mark and EWMA form edge (22.4 vs 19.2) support the side, but -3.5 is only worth a half-unit because it just leaps the key number 3. No prop plays — roster data unavailable and certainty bar unmet.
