January Discussion!

[B.A.R.]

Don't look now but those Detroit Pistons are 18-18 and right in the thick of things!

 

[B.A.R.]

Tough loss in OT for the Heat last night. They controlled that game throughout. For a team in turmoil coming off a tough stretch you have to wonder their mindset right now!

Boston lost the Finals preview on Sunday afternoon and head to Denver today. These are always fun games between the two teams. Sneaky excellent Tuesday in January match.

Jazz back home after a quick 3 game trip in the East. That included a back to back sunshine weekend. The Hawks have looked like trash out West so far. Three double digit losses on the trip.

I took Sactown last night for that very reason. Miami just seems like a team in chaos but they actually looked better than I thought. I got lucky to cash that one. I'm am watching the Heat closely now because I think there will be some opportunities to fade them.

Then Miami comes off a 2OT loss and crushes the Warriors on a B2B.

On Detroit tonight, hoping for good things. Watching the lineups for Wizards and 76ers.

We're getting to the point that these are the types of games Detroit should win.

Focus is key though.

The start of the Portland game was not what we're looking for. With that being said, the fight back and result creates incredible lessons learned for a young team as well.

I can't say enough about the job JB is doing.

thunder cavs terrific game tonight. lean okc +2.5

Talk to me

His fatness?

I didn't get to see this game until 103--102.

Interesting game.

Mitchell was godawful and they didn't even want to look for him late. .
Interesting.

Good win Cavs.

Nothing bad to take away for OKC imo.

You seem to be seeing the NBA well right now.

Good job with the Stons tonight.

 

[B.A.R.]

Sleepy game for Cleveland tonight??

Red Hot Detroit hosts the Dubs.

Solid card tonight but no games start after 9pm

Frustrating with the semis on...

 

[askias]

Suns tonight for me. We’ll see how it goes.

 

[B.A.R.]

You've had a nice week good hit there.

 

[B.A.R.]

Solid win for Detroit tonight.

Cade another triple double.

 

[B.A.R.]

Tracking that Suns and Hornets game tonight...

98-93 Hornets entering the 4th

I wanted to go UNDER if quick start to the 4th

Anyways, complete opposite happened.

Hornets up 108-101 with 5:39 left and I went to shovel the decks.

Somehow these turds lost 113-120

15 in the 4th

5 in the last 5.5 minutes.

We see this a lot in the NBA...3 quarters a shootout and then both or at least 1 team looks like hot trash in the 4th.

Anyways, found it funny.

 

[B.A.R.]

Cavs looked like they ran out of gas tonight.

That happens after such a great few months.

 

[KJ]

No trade deadline stuff yet but rumors are swirling here that something is in the works for Nurkic and 1-2 second rounders to Charlotte for Nick Richards which I'm 100% on board with. I still think talk of trying to move Beal is stupid and it's much more likely Durant gets moved to GS than anything regarding stars. No clue what we expect in return for him but he's obviously awesome yet the whole back to the basket iso game is so mundane as a fan.

 

[B.A.R.]

Nice little test for the Stons tonight with a road game at MSG.

Knicks absolutely cruised yesterday vs the Bucks.

Glad they got the 140+ outta their system!!.

Memphis and Houston could low key be a playoff preview.

Spread and Lakers a nice little nightcap.

 

[B.A.R.]

Looks like NBA cut back MLK this year ?

Odd.

Hopefully find some value in-game.

 

[askias]

I want to take Boston off the loss but waiting on Curry status.

[B.A.R.]

Already WTF start to the day

Have a middle of 219.5 through 227.5

210 scored with 3:03 left.

Cmon... Lost this on the LOW side

 

[twinkie13]

Y’all like ATL or Knicks?

Ice Tre gets em but….

 

[B.A.R.]

2h Detroit Houston should go over.

Ugly 2Q there but pace is there.

110 -105

 

[B.A.R.]

That's enough MLK for me lol

 

[B.A.R.]

Both teams under 20 in the 4th

I tend to like unders on these afternoons but that was too tempting.

Oh well.

 

[askias]

Only played the Celtics. Tomorrow maybe Lakers depending on lineups.

Great call.

Dominant.

I did play a live under there and won just barely. A lot of scoring late!

 

[B.A.R.]

Embiid missing a Denver game in Denver again.

Last time he played their, Brady was still a Patriot.

 

[B.A.R.]

Knicks with 3 points in first 9 minutes tonight of the 4th quarter.

Dog days of January have arrived!!

 

[twinkie13]

Bucks vs Pels postponed

 

[VirginiaCavs]

Why are the Bulls only +2 at Golden State?

Great question in retrospect

 

[B.A.R.]

Heckuva pace again in Paris.

Heckuva pace again in Paris.

With that being said, turnovers by Spurs hurt a lot.

Pacers big finish to the quarter.

 

[B.A.R.]

I knew something stupid would happen so you all get to hear about it.

I have Pacers and Spurs live over 236.5 for 2.5 Units

I have under 242.5 for 1.5 risked.

Anyways. Total is at 244.5 a few minutes into the 4th.

I only needed 30 points in the last 8 mins or so.

The Spurs had 86 points after 3 Quarters

Indiana scored 38 in the 4th

Spurs didn't crack 100. I lost thks get by 2.5 points.

I didn't think it was possible to lose on the low end, I guess I was wrong!

 

[B.A.R.]

The Spurs shored FOUR points in the last 9:24 seconds of the game.

FOUR.

 

[askias]

Boston 12-1 off a loss. Playing the trend even though they are clearly dealing with post title hangover.

I do feel the OT Wednesday night took a bit out of them.

Although no travel, they looked lethargic the next night in the LA double dip.

I always like champion teams off a loss vs a good team. Albeit Dallas has the motive as well.

 

[askias]

One of those, I don’t feel great about it, but I will hate myself more if it hits and I didn’t bet it. Plus I’m in Vegas with very little to do but gamble and attend the AVN convention.

Understood...

I was out there during 2016 AVN Convention and had no idea.

I actually bummed a smoke off some male actor at the little bar outside Caesars.

Nice guy, big hands

Nicely done

 

[B.A.R.]

Orlando 26-9 in 4th so far vs Detroit

Stons led by 2 entering.

JB just was given an early shower.

 

[Botanical]

Interesting card...

 

[askias]

Celts coming off a loss now 13-1 and incoming tomorrow.

 

[askias]

Celts trend just keeps on keeping on. Also the Wizards really want Cooper Flagg.
