I may have gone down in flames with the Nuggets/Kings game so I had to move on-on one hand the Kings had a big comeback and are traveling to altitude to play Nuggets-but the matchup is a good one player for player. now I can watch in peace and hopefully the game doesn't end with Nuggets winning by exactly 8 LOL

**atthehalf** · 01-23-25, 10:26 PM

Nuggets-3.5 2nd half

**atthehalf** · 01-24-25, 07:18 AM

Nuggets=Pissers

I thought that they would keep the pedal to the metal last night-but instead they started resting starters in the 4th quarter and damn near almost fell on that 8 which would have cost me my arbitrage move and lose both of the original game spreads for both sides. Well it was a thrilling end to say the least and my 2nd half move went down in flames.

Today it looks like the Hornets may possibly be the move with the Blazers having been buttered up a bit by beating 2 top defensive teams in a row. the Hornets have a pace that is much higher since the return of LaMelo Ball. He is listed as questionable for tonight's game however with a wrist sprain.

The only way that i make a move for the Pelicans is in the vent that they are lined at +12.5 for this evening vs the Grizzlies.

The Cavs are already within the buy in zone for me-just need to stay between -9.5 to -11 come game time

**atthehalf** · 01-24-25, 08:53 AM

Warning! Do not blast away on the Cavs should they get to -11.5 to-12.5. Those are good numbers for the Sixers. And given the fact that there are only 3 games this has the look of fool's gold

Boy do those Rockets look mighty tasty priced at +4 to +5. I may try my hand at some totals today-specifically the totals for the Bucks/Clips and the Celtics/Mavs.

Gasparilla is going on out here and I am actually backloaded with a ton of subpoenas and summons and complaints to deliver today so I guess this year will be one on the couch. The Commish and his Krewe are already out and about-although at last I heard they are on land still and haven't boarded-which is crazy considering the amount of traffic on the Hillsborough River today. It's so cold that I can't see why anyone would put that type of pressure on their body, but that's me!

The Lakers are not in their best role folks and there are all sorts of landmines surrounding their assigned number.

The Hawks aren't playing good hoop lately and their number reflects that.

Rockets also have a good number today-and there's a chance at revenge vs the Celtics. At this point, with their speed and athleticism I don't think that they are 6.5 points worse than any team in the league.

Also i think that the Grizzlies are up against it today. The Knicks have what they don't face most nights and that's guard that makes Ja Morant have to work both ends of the floor-and they also can counter at any and every position on the floor. I have the Knicks winning by a margin of 9 so the -3.5 looks good to go on a ML move.

The Jazz have no answer for Giannis in the paint. He averages almost 32 PPG. Bryce Sensabaugh is 6'5" and John Collins is listed as questionable; and even he is 6'9"and 226 lbs. I do believe that I am going to go with a prop for Giannis tonight vs the Jazz. Gotta get on board fast-there are some out there who know what I know

**atthehalf** · 01-27-25, 11:56 AM

Ok so I just snaped up some (Bucks) Giannis OVER 30.5 points -130

Had to get my moves off early since our runner had to get to the Hard Rock earlier than usual. I may get some Jazz if they are priced at +8.5 on the app later on...I won't pass up a good number out of fear of the deer LOL!

**atthehalf** · 01-27-25, 12:39 PM

Also I slotted Jonathan Cannon (Pale Hose) as a 8-8 QS with an 18.3% for K's and 8.1% BB with 143 frames; and Martin Perez at 17.4% K's and 8.2% BB and 150 frames.

All I need from these guys are to string together 5 frames with the valued 3-1 K/W ratio and I think that i will get it more often than not over the course of the season.

I snapped up Noah Schultz SP, Braden Montgomery OF, Hagen Smith SP, Edgar Quero C, Colson Montgomery SS, Kyle Teel C, Chase Meidroth INF, George Wolkow OF, Caleb Bonemer INF, Jairo Iriarte SP, Grant Taylor SP, Jacob Gonzalez SS, Bryan Ramos 3B, Nick McLain OF, Wikelman Gonzalez SP, and flyers on Nick Nastrini SP(struggled a bit on the callup with the Dodgers-but if they had him he's good to go), Mason Adams SP, Seth Keener SP, Alexander Albertus 3B (part of the Kopech trade)

So now I am set on any potential callups for the Pale Hose with a front row seat to cash in on decent production. Noah Schultz is a gift from the Gods standing at 6'9" with a 3/4 delivery with a mid 90's fastball and a wipeout slider that starts in the left handers batting box and ends up clipping corners. He's been able to walk less than 2.5 batters per 9 frames with a flyball rate of 25.6% and only 5.8% of those went over the fence. I am so on this guy-and when he makes his MLB debut I stand to make a grip because most won't have any idea who he is or where he's from. I have visions of getting a 98% share payout because with that also comes the look of the average uninformed of "it's the Pale Hose" and bet against him in knee jerk fashion. Then he goes out there and outduels someone and the Commish smiles upon me because it's basically only him and i that will split the purse for that game!

You already know what this is leading up to. Once Spring Training is over I will be on the Pale Hose to go OVER their expected wins this season along with the Athletics and Red Sox

Dang-the thought hadn't occurred to me until now-Giannis may rest a big portion of the 2nd half with a game against Blazers tomorrow if the Bucks are up by too large of a margin. Need the Jazz to make a game of it and keep him in a normal rotation!

**atthehalf** · 01-27-25, 10:12 PM

I haven't made a move against the Rockets this season but this overtime win over the Celtics sets up a good profile for the Hawks already getting a good number and then facing an overtime road favorite winner with that win coming over the defending champions and on the back end of a back to back.

With only 4 games tomorrow I am sure that the buy in price of the hawks will go right to where I need it to be

**atthehalf** · 01-27-25, 10:18 PM

Darn. The Magic have seemingly run out of steam here in 2 OT! #collateraldamage

**atthehalf** · 01-27-25, 11:08 PM

This was the weirdest 4-3 day ever-the moves that I made were good numbers so no issue with that-the overtime was a pisser for the Magic and the T-Wolves started missing free throws early in the 4th and cost me that money darnnit!

Grab the points now with the Sixers-again this is not the best role for the Lakers

Not really feeling the Hawks injury report...and the number is not in my buy in range either. The only other move that may materialize could possibly be the Blazers if they get to +7
