CTG Regular
Hi all, I don't bet enough of these Nuba games to do a daily thread. There will be a few a week that stick out, and I'm jumping in full boar this year (yes, CollegeKingRex's original designation in the Covers days cerca 2001 was for college hoops but I am sidestepping doing the full-time work this year. No more doing research for 349 teams, of which maybe less than 200 you can bet every game until March. Too much work = not enough reward. Start calling me PKR in here if you want, I'll laugh and it'll be a good inside joke in March or April when I'm up 70 units in this shit, haha)...
First, the ones I'll sit out today.
Lean Pacers, no real big opinion, and can't lay four with this unit sans Lance, George and West.
Like Raptors to win but my gosh can they lay DD's? I mean they were a DD dog winner on the road there last year and took OKC to otot at home, different teams for sure.
Not sure how Knicks can be the favorite with new coach, system, and Wash beat them all 3 times covering all as well last year.
Both teams figure to play hard in Miami, rockets on a back-to-back, probably a bit better but miami as a small fave seems about right.
Orlando stinks but Bulls rarely cover big numbers the way they play under this coach.
Suns cheap, bad matchup for Lakers, hit 16 threes against them last week when winning by 20, would say favorite or no one until people adjust to how really bad these Lakers are.
To the two games I AM interested now:
Pelis seem very cheap tonight as I am a big fan of the way they've constructed their roster if they can stay healthy. Sure, Charlotte is improved and will be a threat to host a playoff series in the East this year. Still, the old Hornies are a much better team than the old-turned-new Hornies and should make the playoffs. Have to get them before everyone else catches up to them.
The play: Nawlins -3 medium 2u.
Wrong team favored in Portland, first trip out west for new Cleveland team; Portland doesn't play many guys but the ones who do play are all back from last year and they have good chemistry. Extra rest for Portland, first significant road trip for Cav newbies.
The play: Portland ML +120 medium 2u.
GL tonight and all month!
