3/17/2015 10:35 PM NBA Basketball 534 Los Angeles Clippers* -5½ -115 vs Charlotte Hornets for 1st Half *5 UNITS*
*My own fault for not buying out at the half when I saw how fast that game was being played. Just assumed with a double digit lead and a back to back on the road, Joerger would have them clamp down and play some defense instead of running around like the Showtime Lakers. Fool me once... Anyways, I'm either hitting both or neither in this Clippers game (natural assumption would be that the Hornets bounce back, but they've been making a habit of trailing at the half over the past week. Plus, Staples has been a house of horrors for them the past few seasons).
Thanks CASH and Fondy - @ CASH (no worries - the position's already filled ; )

*T-Wolves have given up 55, 60, and 67 in the 1H the past three games, so between the likely accelerated pace, the constant Minnesota turnovers, no big men available in the middle from the looks of it, three refs in the upper half of fouls called per game, and a Raptors team coming off two straight above average shooting nights, don't see why the trend doesn't continue in this one.

*Kings had 39 when I left to go out last night. Somehow managed to score 14 the last 1:40 of the fourth quarter... Anyways, both teams offensive numbers dip on back to backs (there's a trend over at scoresandodds that has Indiana 7-27 O/U 1H the last two seasons on B2B), and the fact that the Nets went triple OT should help this out even more. Plus, and this is just me speculating, but having watched the way Lionel Hollins coached during his time at Memphis, seriously doubt he wants this to turn into a track meet, especially with playoff positioning on the line. Scoring might still be there, to an extent, but don't think the tempo will be.

*It sickens me a bit to play this, but... I think I have to. In the 13 games he's played against the Spurs since joining the Mavericks, Ellis has hit 20+ in 10 of those games for an average of 22.5. And judging from Rick Carlisle's comments the other night, he's just going to keep letting Ellis shoot, shoot, and shoot some more. At the very least, Ellis should come in with some confidence knowing he can take on the San Antonio guards, and that alone might be able to push this one over the top.

Suppose you could make an argument for the spread as well but a) I'm terrible with sides (not that I'm much better with totals, but still...) and b) Indiana has been a pain in my ass all season long, so why chance it. Added bonus of the Pacers sending guys to the line in droves the past few games, so this one should have life right up until the end (of course, that's what I thought about the Blazers last night, and they put up 12 in the 1st quarter, so who knows...)

*Alright, well, even though there's still a few weeks left, I'm going to call an end to this season of insanity. Was still holding out hope to get to 20 units, but that dream died last night and, quite frankly, the way this season's gone, I could just as easily be down 20 by the end of the weekend, so... And, besides, when I was down close to 40 just a little over a month ago (SMH), I always said that if I ever managed to get back to 10, I'd call it, so there you go.
Anyways, thanks to all those who stopped by during the regular season. Wish things could have gone a little smoother (understatement of the year right there), but welcome to my life here at CTG...
