Sunday afternoon: Please remember I tend to be patient when making plays attempting to get the best line.
Indiana Pacers +2 {10units}
This season Chicago is 5-12-1 as road chalk including 2-6 last 8 in that situation. Last time they played @ Indy before Pacers starting falling apart they were +2 and lost SU. So we have some value here IMO thanks to the fact Indy fell apart with injuries and resulting poor performances. This tends to be a series that is home orientated.
That quirky trend pops up again here seeing CHI go 5-12 SU on 2 days rest with an 4-12-1 ATS record in that situation. The Bulls have played three 1 point games in four now and Indy has won its last 2 home games by 20 + points. Indy is still 20-14 at home compared to 14-21 away for Chi.
The Pacers are now alive in the playoff hunt again taking the 8th spot but remember NJ won tonite. "We're in a fight for a playoff spot," Granger said. "Every game has to have that playoff intensity. If we take that approach, we'll come out on top. We definitely don't want to be that team that ends (the playoff) streak. Regardless of what's been going on this year, we don't want to end that streak." They're aware the franchise has reached the playoffs in nine consecutive seasons and 16 of the past 17 and don't want to be the group that breaks form.

Last 5 games you can see CHI not playing it's best defense. Lean 1st Half Under here.
Milwaukee Bucks +5.5 {4units}
Bogut and Villanueva are done for the year leaving MILW thin in the middle starting Jared Reiner of Iowa fame. Both teams should welcome back backup PG's in Boykins and Hunter. However Rasheed Wallace is OUT due to suspension from another technical. Webber hasnt done much past 6 games scoring more then 10 pts just once .
Think after two tough games in SA and Houston they walk into a tough spot due to the extra rest afforded MILW here. The Bucks are 1 pt away from being 3-0 at home with there new coach. Also Det has a game with Denver ondeck.
Warriors +3.5 {4units} ML +140 {1unit} 1st Half +2 {2units}
The Lakers cannot simply rely on Kobe to score 50 everynite. they have had success vs GSW but the last meeting Baron Davis was out. The prior meeting LAL needed to pull away in the 4th quarter. A healthy GSW has impressed me of late . Lakers hav struggled to win 4 straight vs struggling teams like Port , Minny ,Memphis and NO. As crazy as it sounds GSW is playing betteron both offense and yes DEFENSE the past 5 games for both.
Lakers are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite. Road team is 6-1-1 ATS past 8 meetings
Looking closely at Houston. Thinking about simple ML parlay for Suns -250 , Dallas -550 and SA -360. Note the SUNS ML is extremely soft...point difference bewteen that and SA and $110 difference which is odd so be cautious and patient with that...
Thats what I have so far:cheers:
