Warriors are promising payback on the Bucks... At least Klay is...

Some good looking lines there, but will look closer tomorrow.

Wonder what is the status on Lillard...

 

[emkee]

Big play brewing.

 

[Frank Costanza]

Sorta sounds like Milwaukee may get Golden State's A game....

OAKLAND, Calif. -- After the Bucks ended the Warriors' 28-game winning streak Saturday, handing them their lone loss of the season, Golden State did not take kindly to how Milwaukee celebrated the victory.

Ahead of their Friday hosting of the Bucks, the Warriors are expressing that, and sharing some other pointed words about their next opponent, doing everything just short of openly threatening the Bucks -- pro-wrestler style.

"Oh, it was a nice celebration. We do remember that stuff," reigning MVP Stephen Curry said Wednesday night after a 128-103 win over the Phoenix Suns. "We were kind of laughing at some of the stuff going on. It was a big game for them. Friday will be a big game for us."

"Michael Carter-Williams getting a dunk at the end of the game and looking at our bench like, 'Dude you lost your spot,'" Green said of Carter-Williams losing his job as a starter. "So, it's not quite common that you should be looking toward someone's bench yelling. You've got some ground to make up."

Klay Thompson agreed the rematch with the Bucks was "going to be fun."

[nbafan88]

This would be an awful situational spot for the Warriors. But the motivational angle is huge. A team like this with extra motivation is scary. FG ATS, FG TT over 1H ATS and 1h TT over are all solid

 

[nbafan88]

I had a feeling this would happen.

@SportsInsights: Three road friendly ATS refs in tonight's Bucks at Warriors (-19) game


Tony Brothers 282-207
David Guthrie 236-214
Haywoode Workman 203-184



I'm off the game. Good luck

 

[Owster]

I think the over is the way to go. Warriors to score 120+, the only question is how many points the Bucks will put up on the board.

 

[nbafan88]

Tony brothers is the worst ref to have against you if you're on the home team. Granted tonight it should not matter but I could see him putting Green into foul trouble early

 

[divol]

I like TT Under on the Bucks there. Monroe is out, MCW is back playing big minutes and GSW's revenge should come on defense, since they bring it on offense anyway...

I like going over with Golden State's team total here. I would be hesitant going under with Milwaukee. Even though they rarely top 96 points, with how many points Golden State scores, it almost doesn't matter to them how many points they allow. If they win this game 130 to 110, that's as good as 100 to 80. And, Golden State certainly isn't a defense of force to be reckoned with regardless.

 

[emkee]

First time I've seen so many peeps willing to load up on a 19-point favorite.

Internet is abuzz.

Really. Like this is some kind of statement game or something. Anyone who thinks that doesn't understand pro sports.

Will wait for the line to settle.

#lightbulb

I'm not going near 19 points spread, no matter in what league and no matter on what team, but I do see the reasoning for that. I'm pretty sure that aside for games against Clips, this is probably the one that caught the most attention from Dubs so far this season (till 25/12).

 

[nbafan88]

Really. Like this is some kind of statement game or something. Anyone who thinks that doesn't understand pro sports.

Its not very often you know exactly the intentions of players or a team going into the game. You'd have to be a fool to bet on the Bucks after reading what the Warriors players said. They could easily win by 40+. It's Warriors or stay away because of Brothers IMO.

 

[emkee]

Agree it's Dubs or nothing, they should cover with points to spare but when Mike Wilbon is saying a team is gonna win by 40+ you have to be weary.

 

[nbafan88]

Kinda miss watching ESPN talking heads being on vacation. Kind of....

 

[edou1x]

like SAC-MIN U213, but perhaps to easy to be good i mean 1st meeting this season went 192 pts, 22 pts below tonight total

 

[JBsNuggets]

like SAC-MIN U213, but perhaps to easy to be good i mean 1st meeting this season went 192 pts, 22 pts below tonight total

That high of a total should tell you something then shouldn't it? Cards like this frustrate the hell out of me because there are so many plays I like. It's especially frustration tonight because the public are on so many of the sides I like; IND, NY, DET, SAC, SAS, GSW

Also like under total in; BKN/IND, TOR/MIA, MEM/DAL. And over in SAC/MIN

 

[edou1x]

A and P:L and P:U and -3<=line<=-1 and total >205 and 2007<=season

well if my query is good concerning SAC-MIN, i might stay away from this total since O/U is 70%

 

[nbafan88]

All this attention on the Warriors.... I forgot about the clippers spurs revenge....

 

[JBsNuggets]

Man, I haven't watched the gsw game, but just checked the box score. Yall weren't kidding about the refs favoring the road team, 27 fouls vs 19 for the Warriors through 3

 

[nbafan88]

Never ever fuck around with Tony Brothers. He loves getting the home crowd riled up by favoring the road team. It's not a self fulfilling prophecy. Refs are really good at being able to control momentum in more ways than just obvious free throw discrepancy.

Road team has covered 57.7% of TB's last 490 games officiated
