I think you need to look at it more in terms of when you win BECAUSE you beat the closer. i.e. if you have a team +5, it closes +3.5 and it ends up a 4 pt game. Just because you beat the closer big doesn't mean it has any outcome on the game. In fact it's probably the opposite with such a huge middle.

#779I took the Jazz ML first half because I can't tell you how many times I took them +2 or +2.5 against teams like the Spurs, Heat, and Clippers and they're up double digits at halftime, up comfortably after three, and then end up losing by 4-5. I hope they don't penetrate you.
So far this is how they have scored by quarter:
- 30
- 29
- 25
- 6
Nice picks on the Kings total. You literally need 78 second half points.Comment -

#782Cool
Weird they let you - Im in Toronto and they suspended my account just for using an ip from a computer at work, said somehow it was registered as a US address.
Anyhow a good out to have, great for dog lines and the live betting is a gold mine.Comment -

#783I have under 104 for the 2nd half of the Kings/Cavs game. It was on pace to go way under until they scored 20 points in the final 2:12 of the third quarter and 11 points in the final 53 seconds.
I bet they score either 105 or 106. Probably on late free throws.Comment -

#7894-4, -5.5U tonight
92-103, -6.56U thread
Could've used either the Cavs cover (missed by the hook) or the Jazz 2H cover (missed by a point). Oh well.Comment -

#792I think they're a tough matchup for Philly. Hornets are finally healthy and, other than the Knicks meltdown the other day, playing good ball (four wins in a row before that). Will just kind of depend on if they can slow Holiday.
Sixers blew short-handed NO out by 15 back in November and the line is only -3/-3.5. I think the books are giving the Hornets respect here and hopefully it's justified.Comment -

Unreal. Wasn't even injury news that pushed it to close at -163, yet for the second straight night, I kill the closing number and it loses.
Thanks Chaz. At least the Hornets cashed.Comment -

#804I'm so glad I had LA -3 first half instead of over 107.5.
It was stuck on 107 for like the last 30 seconds, the Bucks missed three shots and then Monta Ellis missed both free throws at the end of half. Total stays under by .5.
Another sharp line.Comment -
