[divol]

Took Thunder small for now... will follow the line.
Warriors can destroy any team and they proven it many times this season already.
Still... can see Thunder hanging in there, as long as we want see a rain of three pointers from Curry...

Thunder lost by more than 8 points only twice. In Chicago and in NY, against the Nets, when the snow storm changed the time of the game and Thunder players were forced to stay in the hotel and so on...

 

[divol]

In the last 3 seasons, 9 - 9 is the ATS record for teams that have winning percentage of 70% or higher and get 7.5 points or more. I would assume that at least in half of those cases, some big star was out...
1 - 4 ATS though against the Warriors (three this season)...

 

[Eric8923]

I feel like the Thunder are far better than their ATS record. They just do enough to get the win. They've also heard the comments about Curry predicting the win. I'm sure they'll be all in. I may take the ML as well.

 

[divol]

Getting ahead a bit here, but really looking forward to Sunday and the very nice Unders that should be easy money there...

 

[divol]

Draft picks wise, what's best for the Sixers, to win the game, keeping Nets within proximity of the Lakers, hoping that Lakers will go up a spot and Sixers will have a shot at their pick or lose the game and almost secure one of the last two places in the league or both teams will just come out and try to give it their best?

 

[edou1x]

GS is 6-3ATS this season vs >60%WP teams like spurs/cavs,etc. they tend to play very hard vs good teams. 8.5 points is not enough. you should get DD points to think about a OKC bet to my mind. GS never lost on 2 day rest this season and they outscore by 18 pts good teams >60:WP

 

[edou1x]

don't know what to think about this 230 pts total in GS-OKC :some conflicting trends.

 

[nbafan88]

Butler out tonight


I really wanted to play Minnesota today. They've been playing well. Still a lean

 

[divol]

Cleveland off two losses, playing Pels that beat them in OT earlier this season, but need a win badly...
Gordon and Evans still out...

 

[hugh613]

Cleveland off two losses, playing Pels that beat them in OT earlier this season, but need a win badly...
Gordon and Evans still out...

Might want to make sure of Love's status first - he went down pretty hard last night.

 

[divol]

I doubt I will come near that game anyway, but yeah, Love's status might be worth checking...

 

[laopadak]

Played under 209.5 in Charlotte and Suns +6.5. GL on your plays

 

[divol]

Played Under 205 in Indiana as main bet. Took also Suns +6.5 and Portland +5 small bets.
Like the Thunder, but still thinking about it... It's so hard to cap how a team can handle the Warriors...

Interesting thing about Portland. We talked about how poorly teams play before and after the game against the Warriors. Rockets play Portland tonight, then Warriors and then Portland again... Portland should win at least one of the two imo...

 

[nbafan88]

Love is out


awful spot for houston with the unusual start time... completely missed it


like the hornets tonight, have no love for the wiz defense whatsoever

 

[pip2]

It's really tempting to think that it can't be that hard to climb into the squirrelly heads of the Rocket players and correctly predict when they are going to botch a game. This time I keyed off of the next game being vs Warriors, and as of half time that seems to be working. Might be the first time I have correctly predicted this team, or maybe it's just that after about ten tries, the law of averages allowed me a win...Maybe All-Star game malaise is a factor as well..

 

[cogenman]

Dubs miss Ezele for his rebounding. When Bogut went out earlier, OKC got 6 straight points off offensive rebounds with Speights in.

 

[divol]

Billy Donovan is horrible, just horrible. GSW made a big run and you pull out both RW and KD? I honestly don't get this...
Not to mention that Singler just lost there, terrible on offense and wonders around on defense. He should have been taken out after a minute.

 

[cogenman]

Mo buckets playing well offensively

 

[cogenman]

Thank god for Livingston. Such a luxury to have him.

 

[cogenman]

What a game

 

[cogenman]

Warriors can't get an open 3 off. Okc perimeter defense a lot better 2H.

 

[divol]

Won my Thunder bet by half a point, but will take it... Yeah, good game after all with Thunder managing to close the gap and tie the game...
