Been on my best run of the NBA year so far. There are a few more spots coming up this week with playoff hopes and seeds on the line. 2 Western Conference teams have stepped their game up right now: Houston & Denver. The East still sucks, and no one appears to want to win EXCEPT the Toronto Raptors. Avoid betting against these 3 teams down the stretch. Tomorrow's card is the worst in a while. One stands out for tomorrow:
Indiana ML -145 (5 Units) (L)
Indiana ML -150 (5 Units) -- Iguodala downgraded to Doubtful (L)
Pacers 2H -3.5 (5 units) (L)
Bulls 2H -2.5 (3 Units) (W)

I’m thinking the line will be about Indy -1 here. My unit size will depend on the line and the %'s of the wagers. Tinsley is QUES, but it won’t affect the play either way because Keith Mcleod has filled in nicely, and honestly Tinsely just doesn’t fit with this new team. The Pacers is still in the playoff race. They are 1.5 games back from Orlando for the 8<sup>th</sup> seed. Orlando still has road games at Detroit and Washington, and a home game the final game of the year vs. Miami. Indiana still has tough games at Miami and home games vs. Washington and New Jersey. So, this 8<sup>th</sup> seed is totally up for grabs. Indiana leads the season series 2-1. Their previous game, O’Neal was OUT and Indiana blew a 10pt lead to lose SU at home. Philly is coming off an emotional OT win vs. Atlanta, which they came back down double digits at home. Philly’s season is over. They are officially OUT of the playoff race, and Cheeks HAS acknowledged this by stating he will play his younger players more, especially in crucial situations no matter what the situation is. Guys like Lou Williams, Rod Carney, and Bobby Jones will be playing in crunch time. Philly has had success down this stretch w/ a dual big man system: starting 7ft’ers in Dalembert and Hunter. These guys are mainly good off the ball defenders, but they simply CANNOT guard anyone straight up, especially bigs that can step out and shoot the jumper. Well, tonight, they will be facing 2 of the best shooting bigs in the game: O’Neal and Murphy. These guys should have their way with Philly all night long, and put the Philly bigs in foul trouble. This is a good spot, and Philly’s public love right now should give this play some value on Indy at a short line.
Key Stat: Indiana has out-rebounded Philadelphia by an average of 11 rebounds per game in the 3 meetings this year. The only losing effort came WITHOUT Center O'Neal.
Mutherfuckin' play or fade!
