Early start. With 7 games on the schedule.
Spurs @ NJ :
Suprised somewhat this open so high. Thought more like -3. Big sandwich spot here for SA with DET on deck. No matter how you slice it while SPurs are capable they simply dont have IT nite in , nite out. Jason Collins has been playing solid defense and he could keep TD in his rut. Now that NJ is back to its defensive ways I have to think UNDER 185 is extremely attractive . SA is now 4-7 away as road chalk recently and only the WASH team is remotely impressive in that stretch. While Wiz have stunk w/o Jamison so maybe not that impressive. NJ has 2 days rest and actually is playing consecutive home games while SA is in game 7 of an 8 game trip. (LEan : NJ +4.5 / Under 185)
Blazers @ Heat :
Portland is definetly strating to click and is on the rise. Little suprised with a 185 total but Miami did play some good DEF vs SA , its just a matter if they bring that intensity against an opponent like Portland. Not sure about this game but owud rather ride the dog here. This is Miamis last game before the break and they may go all out which seems to point to an over since Heat should around 100. Lean Blazers
Milw @ dallas :
Redd should return which hopefully makes the line shorter then it should be. WOuld entertain the Mavs if they are not double digit favs. Also look at the over...9 of 10 in the series have gone over.
NO @ Memphis :
The over 207 is cheap. Though the number is correct with NO as small road chalk , tough to see tha value in the Hornets as road chalk. Lean over & Memphis(sorry Cake I am addicted)
Raps @ Bulls:
The shorthanded Bulls have owned Tor (5-17ats past 22meetings). Nocioni was a big factor in the last meeting in CHI. Not sure what to think about the long road trip and no rest really. The total is spot on...so no decision yet..
Kings @ Houston :
The Rockets offense is clicking lately and especially at home. See no reason why they dont see 100 pts. Looking mostly at HOU team over ...Rockets have blown some teams out at home and who knows what will become of Sac w/o Miller. They are undersized for sure ...lean Houston
NYK @ LAL :
Lakers look to cheap here. If you recall before Kobe was announced OUT @ MSG they were something like -2.5 pt road favs. I cant believe Utah is better then LAL right now. LAL has played sound defense since Odom returned but the offense has suffered as well. Lakers have gone UNDER in 9 of 11. While NYK with OT avoided a 5th straight UNDER. This again seems low though cause it was around 208 in MSG. Its just hard to figure the Lakers out. I like NY here but am cautious. Thought we would have sen 7 here ....LAL was 6/6.5 vs Miami....
