First thoughts are Thunder and Clippers TT Over, as long as it will be 108 or lower
 
Without knowing the lines for tomorrow's games, it's of interest to me to note that each of the four games involves at least one team that cares not one iota about playing defense currently.
 
Lean OKC too, 30-4 home team confident they win SU. Not sure if they cover as DEN is hot right now but coming off OT last night.
 
Obviously some value with Orlando. Far too late at night for me to make decisions but simple facts are
Indiana is playing worst 5 in 7
Orlando has covered their last 6 road games playing at
Memphis covering by 8 points
Philadelphia su as an 8.5 dog
NO su as an 8.5 dog
At Heat losing by 1 as a 15.5 dog
At OKC getting 17 and losing by 14
At Bucks leading most of the game and losing by 6 getting 9
In No, Miami and OKC they were down a lot at first but came back strong in the second half in the other 3 they were ether leading or covering after the first half'.
Need to sleep now.
Hard to sleep.
Indiana at home b-b
Teams were
Kings Indiana covered in OT
Washington Did not cover
Portland covered
Atlanta covered
In all 4 games Indiana did not cover in the first quarter
This is the worst spot 5-7 they have been in by far
Think they dislike Orlando because of past domination
Orlnado has covered last 2 and have only covered 3 in a row 3 times this year
First thoughts are to hit Orlando first quarter and if it works walk off the game.
If not make a decision at half time.

Orlando can cover big numbers and play well overall, they proved it many times. The problem is, that they also proved that they can just as easily fall a part.
Indiana pretty pissed at the moment and that is their first home game, since the loss to the Lakers.
Can see here Pacers winning by 30 just as easily as a very even game...
 
Indiana is pissed. True, lost 2 of last 3 games. Nothing obvious but that 0-4 in the first quarter still interests me.
 
Interesting that last time that the teams met in Oklahoma this season, the line was -9, just like today and Thunder played off day's rest after a win and Denver played B2B after OT, just like today and Thunder won by 20 points.
 
Indiana last 10 at home

[h=2]MAGIC AT PACERS, 7 P.M. ET[/h] March 19, 2013 · 6:17PM
TV: League Pass

  • David West will miss his second consecutive game with a lower-back sprain sustained Saturday in Philadelphia, but the Pacers hope he can return Friday. “It’s viewed as a short-term thing,” Coach Frank Vogel said. With West out, Tyler Hansbrough will start at power forward. In two starts this season, Hansbrough has racked up 37 points and 21 rebounds on 14-for-25 shooting.

  • Danny Granger has been cleared to resume full activity but won’t play tonight, and is unlikely to play in the weekend games Friday and Saturday, Vogel said. The Pacers want to see how his left knee responds to individual workouts and practices before putting him back in uniform. “If his knee responds well,” Vogel said, “We’ll try to get him back in there as soon as we can.” Granger missed the first 55 games with left knee tendinosis, returned to play five off the bench but knee pain returned and he has been back on the shelf since March 3.

  • With Granger’s comeback slowed, the Pacers have turned to Gerald Green for a spark off the bench. Green, out of the rotation the past two months, returned with a bang Monday, scoring 20 points with six rebounds in the Pacers’ 111-90 victory in Cleveland. “His ability to shoot the basketball separates him, along with his athleticism,” said Vogel. “That’s a big weapon to have off the bench.”

  • Orlando has gotten a nice lift from newcomer Tobias Harris, a second-year forward obtained from Milwaukee in the J.J. Redick deal. The 6-8, 226-pound Harris has averaged 14.4 points and 8.8 rebounds in five starts for the Magic. “We’re trying to get a grasp of seeing what he can do for us now and in the future,” said Coach Jacque Vaughn. “I’m not big on labeling guys as point guards, shooting guards, small forwards, power forwards. I think the game has really become interchangeable and having versatility is a premium.”

Inflated line in OKC (revenge, Nuggs on a B2B, OT) gun to head - Denver, purely on their bench vs the weak 'pine' of the Thunder...
 
I mentioned what I saw as Houston's nature of registering total results a few discussion threads back, and the King's seem to have the same kind of deal going...

started the season a nicely balanced O/U 10-10-1 but then promptly fell into an all-or-nothing rhythm, with their next 17 games going 14-3 to Over, then their next 12 games going 10-2 to Under, and finally their latest 17 games have gone 14-3 to Over. (While the heavy Under streak did see 75% of its games played on the road, this latest Over streak has seen more than 50% of its games played on the road, so if away venues were to *blame* for that heavy Under run, then this latest run would surely feature more Under results given the similarly solid present of away fixtures.)

Seems to me that it won't be long before the Kings total's *tide* once again turns and Unders make a re-turn.
 
Damn should have paid more attention to the lean. Worse than losing a bet is not playing a winner. Small tickle on the ML but still annoyed...
