[BJPLAYER]

hate to say chalk as i am usually a sucker for the points but can't you just see knicks,hou and gsw covering

contrarian would say knicks suck,gsw been playing a lot lately (i think) or giving the lake crew 7.5 at home but i'm not sure what keeps hou from covering

 

[divol]

I like the Knicks tonight. I know they suck, but they are trying. I know that Denver finally won, but still not sure you can say they are trying...

 

[CASH]

lean to milwaukee.. bad matchup for heat.

Gs plays 6 in 8 i think... but then has 5 days off..

 

[BJPLAYER]

Knicks 1 oclock for anyone interested....line looks off to me...how can anyone bet the nuggs here...small on knicks to finally win i think

Hou for sure

Played a lot of bb back in the day (i sucked) and 6 games in 8 days is a lot....i don't care how young you are....and then to give a team 7.5 at home..not me

Here's a stat tuck should like:

NBA

(701) DENVER @ (702) NEW YORK | 11/16/2014 - 1:05 PM
Play OVER DENVER on the total in Road games on Sunday games
The record is 12 Overs and 0 Unders for the last three seasons (+12.00 units)

Plus, the Knicks are 8-1 O/U their last 9 at home on Sunday. Having said that, as much as I rag on the Nuggets, the Knicks are an absolute abomination on offense. You'd pretty much need Denver to go off for at least 110, or Melo to go off for 40 and hope Hardaway and Shumpert can keep pace.

 

[Paulie The Vig]

Past earnings doesn't guarantee future earnings and as much as that trend is impressive it's a new year with two new coaches and two teams that are spiraling down a black hole this early season. Whatever happen to the trend about early Sunday morning games when you always took the Under. Good luck if you play for me just watching J.R Smith makes me puke.

Edit: Then again I haven't been setting the world on fire in the NBA.

No, I agree, but some guys are big on the day of the week stuff, so figured I'd post it. Plus, you've also got some push and pull type scenarios in this one like DEN 3rd in pace, NYK dead last. The one thing I would say is both teams are bottom tier in DEFF so far, and that might be the difference maker - Denver are indifferent to the point they're almost always out of position on defense, while the Knicks are so disorganized trying to set up the triangle which leaves them exposed against a team like the Nuggets that can kill them on the break. In other words, it might not have to be the quickest pace in the world to push this over.

Also helps that Shumpert is out in place of Smith in the starting lineup, so there are some favorable mismatches on defense.

I already went with the Nuggets 1H team total on account of my not trusting the Knicks, but we'll see what happens.

 

[Paulie The Vig]

The Nuggets do get around 10 more processions per game then the Knicks and they also take around 4 more 3 point attempts then the league avg while the knicks take 4 less. I see you went over 1st half on Denver and I do like that and I also was thinking team total Over 101 for Denver. I like the fact that Denver scored over 100 against Indy it was more impressive to me then scoring over 100 against the likes of Portland, Cleveland Sac faster paced teams then Indy. Two bad Defensive teams with the Knicks not playing any puts me on the Over 101 Team Total Denver. Good Luck.

 

[hugh613]

Wonder if the Knicks would consider trading Melo to the Nuggets for Chandler, Gallinari and Mozgov?

 

[divol]

No way!

 

[hugh613]

It was a joke divol. Still a horrible trade in my opinion, considering they probably would've signed him anyways in free agency. Plus, whenever I think of Melo, I think of this...

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/qQ-vzhSRTdI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Not the sucker punch, but the fact that he runs offs like a little pussy right afterwards...

My Nuggets bet lost the second Nate Robinson entered the game...

Have to think McHale's been giving it to them about how not to play down to the level of your opponents, and how it almost caught them coming out of the gate slow against the Sixers. Just not sure what the Thunder brings though...

 

[CASH]

Think okc shows up enough at home today..

 

[tuck321]

Speaking of days of the week Today is Sunday and the Heat are at home No idea how long this has gone on but 20 wins we know of 16-4 ATS LeBron gone, Wade out ??

 

[CASH]

nah. It's time for them to start losing more. They covered every home game until vs detroit. We know this roster is depleted, they're gonna drop soon.

I was referring to them doing their part in scoring for the 1st half

took heat tt under 98

 

[CASH]

going to be a butt clencher for the 1st h over in okc..

 

[CASH]

Or maybe not..
