NBA Plays (Bubble Edition)...

[emkee]

Feel like I have to try again with Pelicans today.....also like Sixers even without Ben

Sixers without Ben should be better. Embiid will be out to prove Ben is the trade bait.

 

[emkee]

Joe Ingles - AVAILABLE (right foot soreness)

 

[emkee]

No Bryn Forbes for the Spurs which means they probably win and cover.

Kid is turribel.

You pulling the trigger and laying it?

 

[Ryno14]

Spurs up to 9

 

[Inspekdah]

I’m going to lay it. You won’t see a letdown in a must win for SAS. Jazz will play hard but there’s not a lot of shooting available. That’s what can be devastating.

 

[Inspekdah]

If Ingles has a sore foot they’re just throwing him out there for a little conditioning.

 

[emkee]

Stayed away from the Spurs because of 'where bullshit happens'. That was classic NBA.

 

[emkee]

adding...

76ers -4.5 (2 units)

Both teams basically locked into their playoff spots.

Sixers 0-2 vs the Tragic this season, gonna gamble on them not going 0-3 and putting a good game together especially on defense.

Sixers looked better when Ben left the game last time out.

 

[emkee]

Magic 7-28 SU and 13-21-1 ATS as a dog this season.

0-1 SU and ATS as a dog in the bubble.

Sixers 12-3 SU and 10-5 ATS last 15 games without Ben Simmons when favored.

Worth a roll of the dice.

 

[Inspekdah]

I think you’re good here. I passed after going 0-3 on those punks. Meaning they’ll cover.

 

[emkee]

Dunno, Sixers play dumb. Seeing it right now in the 1st quarter.

Bad fouls and bad jumpshots.

 

[emkee]

Embiid looks like he stayed up all night watching Netflix with his lazy ass play. This dude, man.

 

[emkee]

Tobias a solid 2-11 FG's right now.

 

[Ryno14]

Not bad to only be down 2 at half with how they played - I think we got this

 

[Ryno14]

Or not

 

[2daBank]

Embiid looks like he stayed up all night watching Netflix with his lazy ass play. This dude, man.

No disrespect but dunno why expect anything else? Team full of clowns with him being the biggest.

None taken. You bet hoping this team plays to their potential because if they did they'd be the best team in the East.

It's gambling.

They certainly have as much talent 1-6 as anyone. I just can’t stand them. Magic so short up front after what’s his face went down you outta be good. Gl

 

[emkee]

adding...

Celtics +2 (2 units)

:cheers3:

 

[OCD$]

Any reasoning behind the celts pick? Depth maybe?

 

[OCD$]

I am struggling with an angle on this tilt

 

[emkee]

Expecting a playoff type game. C's match up extremely well with Toronto.

 

[OCD$]

I always appreciate your insight.

 

[Big daddy naught]

Blazers/clippers tomorrow. Can dame keep rolling?

 

[emkee]

adding...

Trail Blazers +3 (2 units)

:cheers3:

 

[Knamelis]

Trail Blazers +3 (2 units)

:cheers3:

wow great #,my site has Por -1

 

[Big daddy naught]

It’s been dropping from +4 since last night

 

[emkee]

wow great #,my site has Por -1

Got in just before the move due to Kawhi sitting.

Blazers win SU regardless.

Flippers don't wanna make it easy for LAL by allowing the Grizz to get the 8 seed.

 

[Inspekdah]

When teams do this they often only play their other starters limited minutes. With PG being fully healthy no way he carried the load for 40 minutes today.

 

[Inspekdah]

Expect a lot of Lou Williams Lemon Pepper who is still out of shape and struggling. No PB. Defense will be atrocious.

 

[emkee]

No Bev, Trez or Ka-why?

[Knamelis]

Ahhh, ok. I slept on the overnights and by the time I got to my numbers, line already off board before move.

 

[Ryno14]

Been waiting to all morning for it to pop up. Had to lay the ML -140. GL to us

 

[emkee]

Offshores held the +3 forever.

Clowndrick Perkins called it hours ago...

https://twitter.com/x/status/1291896933880147970

 

[emkee]

Will get involved with the late games.

 

[Inspekdah]

Ouch.

Lilliard sits in 4th and they win easily

 

[pb278817]

The last 3 was late? Saw one ref count it. Not sure if they review it, unlike ncaab

 

[Noles4life]

Cant short 2 FT like that..... hope they miss playoffs now

 

[emkee]

Another ‘where bullshit happens’ moment.

Blazers with only 2 points in the final 3 minutes.

Get outshined by Shamet and McGruder.

Dame with the clutch bricked FT’s, smh.

 

[Inspekdah]

He looked emotionless. It was odd.

 

[Ryno14]

We going with the fighting LeBron’s tonight?

 

[emkee]

77-66-1 (+19.21)

Lean Suns and Mavs but will sit it out.

Too much bullshit today. Take a bow, NBA.

Cleaner games on tap tomorrow.

 

[Inspekdah]

Going to get sucked into another BS game with Suns... smh

 

[emkee]

Meat minus all their creators on offense. Unless Duncan Robinson goes for 81, you should be good.

This is the 'easiest' game left on the Suns seeding schedule and the Blazers lost today so they should remain motivated.

 

[emkee]

adding...

Suns ML +105 (live) for a pair.

 

[emkee]

Suns continue their run.

Team deserves a play-in but it's unlikely.

 

[Big daddy naught]

I’ll likely be on Toronto tomorrow looking for a strong effort after getting blasted by Boston. Rare for them to not show up twice in a row.

I’d like to be on blazers again as I have no faith in Philly but not sure u can after how they lost today.

spurs/pels prob most important game of the day

 

[emkee]

Ya, loser of Spurs v Pels leaves the resort.

 

[Big daddy naught]

Ya, loser of Spurs v Pels leaves the resort.

spurs are definitely playing with more effort, pels have more talent, but not sure they have the heart to compete, feel they’ve given up, sitting Zion the other night clear indicator of that

Of the teams competing to play the lakers the blazers are the most dangerous with dame and CJ, Melo, the 3 bigs, and now Trent making shots, and phx is prob playing the best behind booker, Ayton, Rubio, etc and while they could be fun don’t see them competing with LA, although they look pretty bad rn. Memphis and spurs no chance, pels and kings none either
