I think that teasing Pacers, Thunder and Suns should be easy money. Don't know if they all will win by double digits, but doubt one of them will lose or that one of the games will be decided in the final minute.

 

[nbafan88]

Will be on the bulls if less than DD....tony Parker should be coming back tomorrow. Advantage mavs I think. Will also be on okc since it's a Sunday home game

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Pacers are 12-4 to Over in their last 16 SU wins, after going 22-7 to Under in their initial 29 SU wins.

 

[BetCrimes1984]

Atlanta is 31-3 to Over when they score at least 100 pts, and 20-3 to Under when they score 99 pts or less.

 

[CASH]

had been waiting for this Suns game -their tt is going to be a big number might scare me off...

 

[nbafan88]

It's going to be around 112

 

[nbafan88]

The last 20 Sunday home games, the spurs are 17-3 SU, 12-6-2 ATS winning on average 103.6-89.8
The Last 10 Sunday home games, the spurs are 9-1 SU, 7-2 ATS winning on average 108.2-89.2

 

[CASH]

It's going to be around 112

1st half is the thought... 56ish

 

[nbafan88]

56.5 on 5D

 

[nbafan88]

Locked in

bulls -7 -101

the Knicks are turrible

Religious angle for okc..... Amen ....

 

[nbafan88]

Yes.

Maybe jazz +12

Jazz have some bigs to bang..

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

The Bulls opener seems low.

 

[tuck321]

OKC is 7-5 ATS at home on Sunday through 11-03-2013
They are also 2-5-1 ATS last 8 at home. By the way I do not go to church

Lol are you seriously going to play that card? Going to pick a random amount of games to go back

 

[nbafan88]

7-2 ATS last 9

13-7 last 20 winning on average 107.5-96.5

 

[nbafan88]

The Bulls opener seems low.

Yes it does. Melo is playing against the team that he could very well be on next season. I'm thinking to hedge my bulls wager with a melo point prop

 

[nbafan88]

And if it wasn't for tuck, I wouldn't have ever known about day of the week information!

 

[Lexington 125]

Bulls line looks like they are begging for home loot. Knicks lost 5 in a row, 21 of last 24 @Chicago, and are playing horrible basketball. How is it not -8? Additionally, last two meetings totaled 161 & 162, lined at 186 right now. I would have guessed it to come out at 182... even with the recent non existent defense for NY.

got cut short. Have Suns as best bet.

 

[tuck321]

Very simply to me current form is key. Not saying that is everything but OKC does not seem a team I want to back right now. Bobcats? The crazy end last game bothers me so I will think about it but Bobcats off a SU loss are a very good argument.

 

[nbafan88]

yes i understand that okc's current form isnt that good but its only going to get better as westbrook plays more and more, it cant get worse

and shumpert and amare are playing for the knicks today...

[h=2]KNICKS AT BULLS, 1 P.M. ET[/h] March 2, 2014 · 12:21PM
TV: ABC

• New York coach Mike Woodson mocked reporters before the game when they asked about Carmelo Anthony’s availability. Anthony banged his shooting hand twice against Golden State, but Woodson said Anthony was ready to play against the Bulls. “You know something I don’t know? He got it hit a couple of times but he is ready to go.” The Knicks are also getting Iman Shumpert back after an extended absence with a sprained left knee, and Woodson said Shumpert would return to the starting lineup this afternoon. “We are going to see how he is early and go from there,’’ he said. Shumpert averages 6.9 points per game with 4.5 rebounds.
  Former Sacramento Kings guard Jimmer Fredette joined the Bulls Sunday, getting into town Sunday morning in time to get to the United Center for the game against the New York Knicks. Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said Fredette could play “if there is a need, like if we have an injury or foul trouble.” Thibodeau said he would not “pre-judge’’ Fredette’s ability to play defense, and is looking forward to his offensive contributions. “He has a skill. We need shooting. The challenge is to get him up to speed as quickly as we can.” In 41 games with the Kings this season, Fredette averaged 5.9 points and shot 49.3 percent from 3-point range.
  There is no official push yet, but the Bulls expect power forward Taj Gibson to get some notice for Sixth Man of the Year. Coming off the bench Friday in a win over Dallas, Gibson led the team with 20 points and 15 rebounds, only the third player in the last 35 years to have at least 20 and 15 off the bench for the Bulls (Donyell Marshall and Marcus Fizer were the others). Over his last 10 games, Gibson has averaged 18.4 points and 8.7 rebounds. For the season, he is averaging 13.3 points and 6.8 rebounds. He has also stated eight games for the team this season.
  
• The Bulls have won eight of their last nine games. The Knicks have lost five straight. The Bulls and Toronto Raptors are tied for the third playoff position in the Eastern Conference at 32-26.

[GatorsLeafsBills]

Oh for sure. Trust me I know its awful. As a Raptors fan this team should be a 9th/10th place team yet we are 3rd haha. But when you talk "MVP" dude has to be on the list.

[nbafan88]

[GatorsLeafsBills]

Noah going for a triple double today

Just pointing this out

 

[divol]

I took Thunder as well.

I think that Thunder are "due" to give a good beating and what rival can be better than decent team that didn't cover once in Oklahoma in all their short history?

Also, I really think that Westbrook & Ibaka can do a decent job against Walker and Jefferson.

Clips also started out poorly the first two games with CP3, losing both, but played very well since.

Thunder lost three in a row, but won against Memphis and covered (for those that took the early lines of -5 and -5.5) and I think will cover the next two games as well (tonight and against the Sixers).
