DET -1 @ CHI................are you kidding me???

[Big Wave]

Am I missing something here????

I do not have the capping experience that many here do to know what the line "should be". All I do know is that this seems like a line that is designed to have a majority amount of action on the DETROIT PISTONS for TNT Thursday night.

Would DETROIT really only be a 5 point favourite to a winless team at home?? (assuming I have learned from B.A.R. that home court is worth 6 points).

Would love to hear thoughts on this and will continue to watch for B.A.R.'s take on this..............

GLTA :cheers:

it's probably due to the fact that the bulls "are due". haha. I'll be on detroit if the line is -1.

 

[slayer202]

I don't know, you would think the line is too low. either way, I am on detroit -1 already, before the line does move

 

[B.A.R.]

Opened at a PK

I see 1.5's right now

well playoff revenge has been key in the past, and Chicago revenge factor is huge. Although the matchups are in detroit's favor, Chicago will be winless, with playoff revenge, as a homedogg. scary pick

 

[xpression syst_m]

books usually open lines to get balanced action, this one defintely had me scratching my head, common sense would say pistons win this game considering the matchups, but who knows...not sure if the bulls have remedied all their problems with the kobe distractions, the dissention from the fans, etc.

Got -1 at Sportingbet.com.au

The past two days "are you kidding me plays"(Spurs vs Houston and New Orleans vs Portland) the home dog has won. I am not too keen on the "due for a win" angle but in a intense rivalry such as this game I think I am going to pass and look at the total. BOL to all.

This is the same Bulls team that many had finishing as a top seed in the regular season. Lets not count them out yet.

Slayer - How would you middle Bulls -1.5 and Pistons -1?
