Rex's All-Star game lines and discussion...

[CollegeKingRex]

Sophomores traditionally own the rookies. With these rosters, looks like it could be more of the same. I look forward to watching this game more than I do the one on Sunday.

Make the Sophmores 11 and 248.

In the Sunday game, make the West 7 and 264.

Opinions?

:cheers:

Loving the West on Sunday CKR

Def lean the West here myself guys.

East will have Dwight Howard and Sheed for defense. Thats it. That is not going to cut it. The Kidd Factor too. West has the truer PG's that will keep the gameflow going. Kobe plays....then he is going to win this for West anyway. He is the best All-star showman since Magic, Isiah and MJ.

 

[CollegeKingRex]

Injury news is slim: I'm getting reports that Kobe is QUESTIONABLE for the West... and if Kidd's trade goes through, he's ineligible to play for the East. So of course, this game would be in a circle right now if I were offering it as the actual line (I'm not sure anyone has released the line yet, but I expect it to be close to what I make it)...

 

[B.A.R.]

Kobe was going to doctor this morning....so hopefully we'll know that news by later this afternoon. That would work well if he DOESN't play because that opens up a spot right away fro Kidd...just what the West needs..another PG. LOL

Like the Sophomores in the game tonight...by looking at the rosters they should dominate

[CollegeKingRex]

Still not seeing any lines anywhere, but I'm like you... the Sophomores have been dominant in the last five years; none of the games was ever really close at the end... But remember, these freshmen aren't your stereotypical, 18-year old rookies. Each of them all played in college for a year or are from overseas, which gives them more experience.

I see the line is now 5.5 any idea why?

 

[smo1a]

most of the public is on the East, however, not sure it would move the line this much. It was 7 with my book this morning.

 

[Terpman92]

Over Under is at 262. Was at 261. Trying to come up with a logical wager here.

 

[Greencastle]

taking the over myself.

all that talent and some lackluster defense should produce a big number tonite.

 

[aplous]

East ML.

In a game that is such a toss up and means little to any of these guys, why not get +200

Look at the guys West usually has in dominating these over the years.....Marion, Parker, McGrady, GARNETT, Allen

 

[Joe Public]

I heard on the radio that they're going to force Kobe to start the game, that being the NBA. But then it's kind of an all bets are off thing of how long he stays in and how much he plays.
