Well, NBA is back. I truly am excited obviously for the capping but what I hope is a more pure NBA this season. I think there is plenty of intrigue and its going to be a wild season. Last year the regular season was great. Fine tuned a few things and pulled in over 100 units for the regular season. Playoffs was like kissing ones sister but thats fine. Lets have a secon great NBA yar at CTG and I look forward to some old faces as well as new ones.
Portland @ San Antonio
The line is currently at 13' at Bookmaker. The old fade a championship team on their ring ceremony night angle is here. Two years ago at SA Denver was up huge yet still didn't cover the +8. That was a horrid moose to start the year. Last year Chicago went into Miami and crushed them. Not really going to get involved with Portland games for awhile. They were a solid home bet for 2nd half last year. Need to see this team idetity and some injury concerns.
Houston @ LA Lakers
Do not just bet this game because its opening night and on TV. That not the way to get season started. Kobe could bring 50 or could be a dud. We have to see his mindset first and foremost. Houston is adjusting to a new system and I think they will struggle for the first month..at times. In the second half of the year though I see them firing on all cylinders.
Utah @ Golden State
As I said when this playoff series started last year. Its all about the rebounding. Jpicks will tell you the same thing. I think in this game the advantage will be even more present. Now, this is a playoff revenge game as well. I think this line is off though. This makes Utah a 1.5 favorite at home. Not buying it. Heavy lean on Utah right now. Will wath the line and get a little more information before moving forward.
So, if I have a play opening night it will be Utah. I also lean over in this affair. No thanks on the other two contests.
