[nbafan88]

nets again



although i worry that kyrie will have another monster game in NY

 

[tuck321]

Suns are playing b-b. Not a pick yet but hard to get around that record.
GS has appeal as does Indiana but not ready to bet them

 

[divol]

Memphis will probably be a bet for me. Denver off two big wins against good rivals (at least on paper), Memphis off two losses. Obviously 7 points is a lot, but it's Denver's 4th game in 5 nights and while Denver is not a team to mess with in B2B spots (6 - 1 ATS), situation dictates a play I think.
Any thoughts on this one?

 

[divol]

Gordon returns to Hornes, but I think that they can't be trusted as road favorites. On the other hand, Charlotte sucks so badly it's sickening.

Wizards can be a play in Chicago. Chicago at home plays simply awful. The line will be in the sky and I'm not sure that Chicago can beat up any team at the moment. Wizards are 4 - 1 in second leg in B2B spots.
Bulls are 2 - 10 as home favorites, while Wizards are decent road dogs.

 

[divol]

Nets get the same line against Cleveland as they did against Charlotte? What am I missing. Nets will win, no doubt I believe, but can they cover?
Maybe Brooklyn first half TT Over is the best way to go here...

 

[divol]

Over in GSW sounds good. Boston first leg in B2B = Over.

 

[divol]

Portland are horrible favorites. 3 - 7 ATS record as favorites.

 

[divol]

Tomorrow's is LeBron's birthday and Bucks as home underdog are 0 - 4 ATS this season.

 

[tuck321]

The Timberwolves are 0-12 ATS (-11.5 ppg) since January 24, 2006 with at least one day of rest off a loss as a favorite in which they led by 10+ points.SDQL TEXT: team=Timberwolves and 0<rest
DAY:
The Trailblazers are 11-0 ATS (12.0 ppg) since March 23, 2007 with no rest after a game on the road in which their field goal attempt per turnover ratio was at least eight.

 

[wadegarrett]

Port/Phi over n Philly plus PTs.

 

[twinkie13]

Gordon returns to Hornes, but I think that they can't be trusted as road favorites. On the other hand, Charlotte sucks so badly it's sickening.

Wizards can be a play in Chicago. Chicago at home plays simply awful. The line will be in the sky and I'm not sure that Chicago can beat up any team at the moment. Wizards are 4 - 1 in second leg in B2B spots.
Bulls are 2 - 10 as home favorites, while Wizards are decent road dogs.

How is he gonna fit in?

Currently seeing it differently. Washington off a win and Chicago off a loss looks like chicago.

 

[tuck321]

Currently only bet is GS minus 3
Still looking at Minn and possibly Portland. Regarding Portland this team does tend to play much better at home off a loss and getting spanked by the Lakers is like Serious.

 

[divol]

Chicago get back both Rip and Deng - so I won't be taking Wizards here for sure...
But Chicago as favorites...

 

[divol]

How is he gonna fit in?

Good question, but I think he can help the team, especially with the young Rivers carryng all the load at SG position...

Was just about to ask about gs, I like them here as well

 

[divol]

I like Memphis a lot, also Minny and Brooklyn - took them as parlay to win SU - see no reason for this one to lose...

Will probably be on them ATS as well...

 

[divol]

Obviously Over in Oakland looks too good to be true...

 

[nbafan88]

I don't understand why Minnesota is such a big favorite. The team doesn't know how to put teams away

[barmeezee]

So u playin gs???

 

[barmeezee]

Just never know what Boston team will show

 

[Retburj13]

So u playin gs???

no C's...gut play

 

[barmeezee]

Line jump to 5

 

[Retburj13]

Celtics have zero energy....its like the drubbing they took from clips was ok

pierce is passin up shots...they have no legs shooting...young buck GSW showing them up

...looks like they figure the sacto game tomm is more winnable...embarrassment

this team is rudderless right now...

bad call...i figured they would show some heart

 

[divol]

18% from three pointer 31.9% from the field and Green missed his FT causing my HT Over bet to lose...

Tomorrow I will take the Under on Boston and then of course, they will shoot the lights out...

 

[Retburj13]

Green is just not playing

....too timid...too inconsistent....hes the best athlete on the team but only shows flashes of the slasher this team needs....too much settles forthe jumoer and whne he has a poor nite he usually packs it in instead of pushin thru it.....not sure if Doc is not playin to his strenghths or what but this team needs him more than anyone else

 

[braves]

Teams are just running at celts and lakers, and having good success

 

[Retburj13]

Teams are just running at celts and lakers, and having good success

yup old legs

example: barnes gets def rebound...KG is 10 feet ahead of him up court but Harrison blows past him on the dribble and if not for bouncin ball off his foot had an easy layup

 

[braves]

Celts very much alive
