Pretty much a regular
ML dogs: 17-31, 35.42%, -1.265 units
I have been redefining bad luck with several games lost in the last few minutes...and even more in the 4th quarter. I am not like other cappers. If I keep losing at something, Then I stop and do something else. If this shit continues, then I'm going to stop playing ML dogs like this.
At any rate...all teams should be well rested, though I have no idea how tryptophan might affect nba players. It's been looking like the books have generally been trying to account some for the situational plays, anyway. Though they just couldn't put a line high enough for the Spurs vs Heat on Wednesday...
For America's national moronic shopping day...
Knicks @ Celtics
I won't like the Knicks very often this year, but the Celtics are another shit team, and I think the Knicks matchup well. The biggest thing I think NYK has in their favor is the energy coming off the bench. While Marbury and Francis are too busy scratching themselves to give a damn about the game, Robinson and Crawford come in and eagerly blow the fuck out of whoever they're playing. Robinson loves nothing more than to scramble his 3 foot ass to the hoop and drop it in. The young guys on the Knicks love to play team ball with a lot of solid ball movement to get a good bucket in the paint. They even put in some good minutes on defense, but that isn't so much their strength...
The Celtics live and die with Paul Pierce. If Wally is hitting his shots, then it's a slower death, but they cannot live off of Wally alone. This team is too disoriented and too often the others, even Telfair more often than I would expect, just give the ball to Paul and hope. He's good, and at this rate he may wind up hitting 30ppg as an average this season. He better hope he doesn't if he wants to win more than 20 games. Anyway, with a team leaning completely on one guy, I tend to think that team is going to hit fold. That guy can't play 48 minutes every night. The Celtics have a game at Milwaukee Saturday night, so it's not like the guy can rest tomorrow...
Line is at Celtics -4.5 right now, and I expect a reasonably good ML on it tomorrow. 160 or 170 is more than enough, imo, for this team looks to me to have at least a 40% chance to win...if not 45-50%.
By the way, as quirk of history, the word Celt has a hard C in it...it sounds like a K. Feel free to call this basketball team the sell ticks all you want, but if you are thinking of the germanic people who settled in NW Great Britain, then they are the CELTS with a K. Not with an S like the moronic announcer I heard the other nights.
