NBA Season Thread With Matchup Analysis

[davopnz]

why do you always panic so early? relax.

i have cavs +8.5. i'm just saying in general the pacers are filth

[Byrone09]

damn. I always miss these 2nd half plays! Have to keep checking in with GM!

[Catchn_Picks]

Me too Byrone...nice call Goat. Great read.

[Catchn_Picks]

No. If you can get +125 I'd go for it. Don't see how Noah won't score 15 at least tonight as long as he can get 10-12 shot attempts which he should against this small Philly team.

Catchin_Picks, not sure what you mean. Love played in the first meeting.

My bad...

[t-wizzle]

Two days away Goat but how do we not hammer Indiana -whatever Friday night against Philly?

Sixers have no answer for their size and Pacers have the perimeter defenders to guard the Sixers shooters.

Wow. Denver turns it over at the complete worst time in the game only down 3 with a chance to tie. huge swing there. Might get fukked by a point here.

Bro you're lucky it's even close right now. Game should have been over. Btw that was a bad foul call there to give Galinari two free throws.

[davopnz]

jazz tonight?

[Catchn_Picks]

Denver covers!

Goat v. The World...Goat wins!

I'm lucky? LOL JJ Barea dropped 15 8 dimes and 5 boards and the wolves shot 82% from the the line and barely won the game with denver having 19 turnovers and shooting less than 60% from the line. I told you guys in Sando's thread last night that Kevin Love is not the same player he was. There's something wrong with him. I'm surprised Denver did not win this game. If it wasn't a b2b i'm 100% sure they would have won. You took the wolves in the same spot earlier this year at +3. Save your money on the wolves for when they get Roy and Rubio.

Dude are you kidding me? 11 point game with under 2 minutes to go. Just admit you got lucky.

Incredible.

[BigDofBA]

He wasn't lucky when Portland came from 17 down in the 4th quarter to cover against the Bobcats either. It was just good capping.

Don't hate.

PLAY 103: AL JEFFERSON OVER 17.5 POINTS (-125) RISK $37.5 FOR 30

Just a fun play here as I always love seeing Jeff and Duncan go at it. Jefferson loves to play against Tim Duncan, and Duncan usually plays him well but just too much size here for Jefferson and I expect Jazz to go to that matchup early and often throughout the game.

[spippen]

A win is a win.

You don't win in gambling without luck.

So were you lucky with Denver or weren't you?

[Goat Milk]

So were you lucky with Denver or weren't you?

No. Denver was the right call. The stats prove it as well.

[davopnz]

do you fancy the jazz' chances?

[DOM-Ganador]

So were you lucky with Denver or weren't you?

NC, cmon, really.Bad Luck, good luck, Bad Beat, yadayada..
Win or Lose.
Stay in the game.
Don`t spend the grocery $.

PLAY 104: SPURS 1ST HALF -2 -105 RISK $52.5 FOR 50

Jazz are slow starters at home and the Spurs are red hot going into this game. I expect the size of the Jazz to wear out San antonio down the stretch of this game perhaps.

[Goat Milk]

do you fancy the jazz' chances?

I like the Jazz 2nd half if they go down a good amount. Their size might bother SA in the 4th quarter of this game when legs start getting tired.

[bodybag]

No. Denver was the right call. The stats prove it as well.

haters gonna hater...at the end of the day a win is win...Not GM fault that they waited til the last 2 mins to get it together. All that matters is they did which means money in the bank!!!

You have to be fvcking kidding me.

Jefferson dominating early. I hope to be a part of an nba organization down the line, whether a film coordinator, assistant, something. I love this game.

Because Jefferson is the ultimate iso forward/center. Give it to him on the block and let him go to work. He's very effective because he is so good at facing up and knocking down the 15 footer.

[Goat Milk]

You can tell by my initial thoughts I like Utah in this game but after watching this first half how can I not bet the spurs 2nd half?

Parker and Ginobli are getting these guys to collapse everytime they drive.

[davopnz]

dont do it...

[t-wizzle]

Goat you get my comment about Pacers on friday?

[jimmy007oc]

?? spurs 2nd half

[Goat Milk]

PLAY 105: SPURS -5 2ND HALF (-115) (HERITAGE). RISK $115 TO WIN $100

After thinking Jazz to win this game and watching the first half, I really think the Spurs will come back and win this game. Utah size is an obvious problem for SA, but Parker and Ginobli are driving the ball at will and getting the entire D to collapse. I see quite a few 3s from SA in the 2nd half and for this game to come down to the wire. Duncan is dominating in the post and that's always a good sign. This just feels like one of those games where the Spurs will execute to perfection 2nd half. The pick and roll with Duncan and Parker has been money in the first half and look for them to use that a lot more in the 2nd.

[Goat Milk]

Are sixers home or on the road?

Road.

[Catchn_Picks]

Gotta say that I was very impressed with DEN's late run...playing at altitude after beating DET last night...they are showing the signs of a playoff team with potential to get better.

Great job by Karl early in the season to bring this team together. I expected DEN to fold late and they did the opposite so in my mind they have jumped to a higher level team.
