Back to Back Altitude Alert : January 18th and 19th

[B.A.R.]

The Cavs will be doing the Denver/Utah B2B at the end of this road trip.

This road trip started with a home game vs Indiana on the 8th and then the 9th at New Orleans.

Utah and Denver will be games 5 and 6 of the road trip before heading back East.

Overall, 7 games in 12 days.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Utah will be in the middle of 8 out of 9 games at home with two days off after the Cleveland game.

Denver will be on the 4th of a 4 game home stand. They then have 3 days off until their next game.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is an added element to this, can anyone spot it? It almost makes for another great spot but cross-referencing the schedules shows the flaw.

The next game for cavs being at 1 et. Remember you pointed a game out last year (I think, if not, the year before) Miami was coming to Detroit in a very similar time slot situation after altitude game and decent west coast trip. Game was close first half but the Miami fell apart 2h. (I’ll try to find the thread).

Flaw cavs vs Chicago - Chicago is playing in their own (almost) super situation spot.
Which team is in a worse spot? Chicago being in the eastern time zone for a couple days prior might help a bit?

Very well done. And GREAT memory.

Miami 6 game road trip (note starting time to end trip)

Nov 3 @ Denver Nuggets 9:00 PM
Nov 5 @ Los Angeles Clippers 3:30 PM
Nov 6 @ Golden State Warriors 10:30 PM
Nov 8 @ Phoenix Suns 9:00 PM
Nov 10 @ Utah Jazz 9:00 PM
Nov 12 @ Detroit Pistons 4:00 PM

This was the situation last year. Similar as the game before coming back east was in altitude.
The game back east was 4et compared to 1et this time around

 

[pb278817]

Very well done. And GREAT memory.

Wouldn’t have a clue if not for many years of lurking. Thanks for always pointing out the good spots in the league

I’m impressed with his memory on that as well. Wow.

 

[VirginiaCavs]

Known zilch about NBA except that Pistons with Hamilton and Wallace and that great D can win it all but love a good spot bet. Thanks!

 

[pb278817]

I’m impressed with his memory on that as well. Wow.

Haha it was one of, if not my highest regular season bet I’ve ever made. Easy to remember

 

[emkee]

Good stuff fellas.

Had Cavs at Nuggz circled since the sched dropped.

 

[B.A.R.]

Yes, and that first half was driving me nuts. I couldn't fathom how Miami was just draining jumpers on those tired legs.

 

[B.A.R.]

This weekend...

The nice thing here is that they got a win on this trip (at LA Lakers).

 

[B.A.R.]

The thing is now, how the heck do we attack these spots? The lines will obviously be ridiculous.

 

[luvthemcowboys]

Don’t hit at first double up ?

 

[pb278817]

Don’t hit at first double up ?

Ya, gotta think one of the 2 will be 20+ pt beat down. If first doesn’t hit, likely to double down on 2nd

 

[luvthemcowboys]

I agree like Denver the best hope they lose tonight

 

[pb278817]

2nd half lines will be worth a good look too.

 

[B.A.R.]

2nd half lines will be worth a good look too.

Yes indeed ..

 

[tuck321]

Celtics again today

 

[Marsski]

Utah -15.5...this is factored into spread, no? Not a NBA bettor so have no idea whether this line is inflated...

 

[jdoggoakley]

Utah -15-1/2 tonight and Nuggz -16-1/2 tomorrow night, available on BM

 

[B.A.R.]

Utah -15.5...this is factored into spread, no? Not a NBA bettor so have no idea whether this line is inflated...

I wouldn't say too much. This is standard. The Cavs were 14, 14 and 15 vs Port, Hou and NOLA recently.

 

[B.A.R.]

I'll be tracking tonight live myself. Good luck all.

 

[VirginiaCavs]

So whats the big play?

 

[austinhous]

Do you have anything I can parlay that with?

 

[B.A.R.]

Tomorrow?

 

[B.A.R.]

This game getting ugly already.

 

[pb278817]

Oh my does Cleveland suck. Can’t see tomorrow’s game being any closer

 

[B.A.R.]

Oh my does Cleveland suck. Can’t see tomorrow’s game being any closer

Nope, line will prolly reopen about 17.5.

 

[B.A.R.]

Well, this was one time to play if off the rip.

 

[B.A.R.]

Lead is 35.

 

[B.A.R.]

Um...

 

[Gandolf]

Routine

 

[B.A.R.]

Hope no one had a heart palpitation there at the end.

 

[Gandolf]

We can laugh about it now. So NBA.

 

[B.A.R.]

And hopefully nobody played this way to late and pushed... That's still a crazy 4th...

 

[pb278817]

Think I got a 200 bpm before niang hit the last 3. Unreal it came that close

 

[B.A.R.]

I know a book or two went briefly to 16.5 twenty minutes before. Most were 16 the last hour or so before.

 

[B.A.R.]

That's why I just folded for the night. Nothing ever came avail to me. One time live betting early I saw a 14, that's it. Hence why I think it is tougher than ever to bet sides... Wild shit happens in the new NBA.

 

[KJ]

Didn't play but wtf was that

 

[emkee]

Got to have multiple shops more-so than ever now in Silver's league.

The swings are extreme.

 

[emkee]

Not as fun as Stern's league, that's for sure.

 

[B.A.R.]

We do have two other altitude spots to look at this season by the way...

This set was the best though of the three.

 

[B.A.R.]

Currently at 17.5

 

[B.A.R.]

Currently at 17.5

Few 17s available too.

Washington late March and ??

 

[B.A.R.]

I should define this better. It is when teams play consecutive games in Utah/Denver (or in opposite order).

 

[B.A.R.]

In two weeks the Rockets start a trip with those two teams. I wouldn't call it strong.

 

[pb278817]

Thanks. Do you or anyone know where to find travel info or if it is available? Bunch of snow coming into Cleveland tonight, see how it’ll effect the travel home if any for the Monday matinee?

Not off hand. I'd just look for local feeds on that. Excellent thinking though! Even if it delays them a bit, that could help things on Monday.

. For what it’s worth I think this storm is very over exaggerated. Was saying it’s the worse storm in decades expect for 30inches. Now latest I seen was like 6-10... Doesn’t change the fact we suck though!!!!! On my way to Casino as we speak to pound Denver
