[B.A.R.]

Think we might have something here, will check in later today...

 

[divol]

I like both favorites. Cleveland so far got their revenge on all the teams that won them so far and now it's GSW's turn. Cleveland is playing better and better, while GSW plays not as good as they did in December - January.
Thunder are 1 - 4 ATS the last 5 games against the Suns (last season and a half), but Suns are playing poorly at the moment (and no, beating Denver means nothing in my eyes) and Thunder play amazingly well.
Maybe Over in both games as well.
Cleveland and Warriors can win via defense and via offense, but when two such great offenses meet, I would expect both to score 105+ points.
As for the game in Phoenix, 4 - 1 in favor of the Over the last 5 games between them, averaging almost 230 points a game...

 

[tuck321]

Put it another way. GS has lost their defense and their Juice. Suns have considerable talent but have never developed any defense this year which should be fatal vs the best and deepest OKC team I can remember.


NBA > (501) GOLDEN STATE@ (502) CLEVELAND | 02/26/2015 - 08:05 PM
Play AGAINST GOLDEN STATE using the money line in Road games after allowing 105 points or more
The record is 1 Wins and 5 Losses for the this season (-13.2 units


NBA > (503) OKLAHOMA CITY@ (504) PHOENIX | 02/26/2015 - 10:35 PM
Play AGAINST PHOENIX using the money line in All games in February games
The record is 1 Wins and 7 Losses for the this season (-11.15 units)

 

[tuck321]

Just glanced at the refs in the Suns game
10-5 for the home dog
11-5 for the home dog
8-5 for the home dog
Doubt it matters but a conservative ml parlay or a Cleveland spread and OKC ml might be reasonable. Still doubt it matters

[Gorgolon Lives]

Cavs

 

[BJPLAYER]

I agree with Divol's analysis here as both Cleve and especially OKC are in really good current form.....Westbrook is playing like a BB player (finally) and looked better than I have ever seen in his last game...Slight regression with GSW recently although this matchup may snap them out of it. And the Suns have looked pretty bad for a while....Looking forward to the Cavs/Warriors

GS $$$ coming in. Cavs now -3

 

[CASH]

GS $$$ coming in. Cavs now -3

It was the 88 guests from last night all loading up on GS..

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Well it's Cavs ML for me...Risking 5u on this

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Bout to get underway, One of the most anticipated games of the season.

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Still cant fathom why GS paid Iggy when they had Barnes. One of the worst salaries in recent memory in NBA

 

[CASH]

Iggy at the time was considered a top defender for multiple positions..

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Right a defender. Not a 12mil / yr player

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

15 points in 2 mins

 

[CASH]

He used to score as well now doesn't look for offense

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

No one can guard Bron tonight. He's gonna go off

 

[CASH]

Running the globetrotter weave..

 

[CASH]

Entertaing qtr

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Lebron vs. the world tonight. Crazy quarter for sure. Not impressed by Cavs, which has generally been decent lately

 

[CASH]

Need to get love going..

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

King James

 

[CASH]

That was worth 12 mil..

 

[emkee]

2nd quarter so key in this game.

 

[emkee]

Gherkins comes in and immediately kills the flow.

 

[CASH]

So many missed easy shots near the rim this qtr

 

[Lareux]

He used to score as well now doesn't look for offense

Right, he doesn't need to now, which is why the Warriors were just fine giving him $12M/yr...he fits into that team as exactly the type of player they need with Steph, Klay, etc. He can still slash and score, and can shoot the 3 much better now than earlier in his career...and, as you said, he's a top notch defender at multiple positions.

 

[Lareux]

Per 100 possessions, Iggy's +/- has been off the charts since he's been in GS. He was +13.8 last year, and is +12.1 this season. Those #s are well above any of his previous #s (his career best was his 1 season in Denver at +6.7). He fits in perfectly with GS is the takeaway from that, I think.

 

[Engineer]

Perkins is a disease

 

[emkee]

Believe the Dubs have lost every game this season that they've been outscored in the 2nd quarter.

 

[Lareux]

Perkins is a disease

OKC had to be thrilled to be able to get rid of him.

 

[emkee]

Believe the Dubs have lost every game this season that they've been outscored in the 2nd quarter.

Will check, not sure of the validity of this one.

 

[emkee]

Steve Kerr gonna kill a ref soon.

 

[CASH]

Need green and iggy to be benched...
put in spreights and barbosa...

Was really hoping for a lee prop , think he will be very involved ..
