Celtics +3 @ Bucks
The Celtics had a great response to Rivers' soft comments and I think that mentality will carry over to today'c game. With both teams being fairly equal in ranking and talent, I have to take the pissed off team and the points.

TIE!!! Boston came out on fire and were up 17-0. This was probably the worst thing that could happen to them as they looked complacent from that point forward. Oh well, I'll gladly take a push over a loss, any day. I guess that line was sharp as phuckk!
Clippers appear to be hitting their stride, again. Billups has brought a little lift to the Clip show and conversely, the Jazz appear to be cooling off. I think the Jazz success at home has slightly deflated this line. Over the last few games, the Jazz have been horrid on the defensive end. Facing one of the top scoring teams in the association won't help the Jazz reverse that trend.

LOSER!We had this game in the bag and Matt Barnes couldn't sink one of two free-throws. The Clippers give up a meaningless 3-ball and we lose by a half a phucking point. Overall this game was a HUGE disappointment and not just because we failed to cover. The Clippers bench was phenomenal the entire game, while the Clippers starters lolligagged and played with a thumb up their ass for 75% of the contest. The Clippers could've won by 5, but failed to sink key free throws or implement proper strategy down the stretch. They were lucky to win at all. Instead of inbounding the ball properly, the Clippers lobbed it up and Utah had a final three at the buzzer that would've won it for them. Oh well, not the worst loss of the season. I swear to God the Clippers have cost me more money, this season, than any other team. We will get 'em tomorrow.

Suns +10.5 @ Grizzlies
The Suns have lost 3 in a row, one of which was a HUGE blowout loss to the lowly Pistons. Though I don't see the Suns winning this game, I do see them playing a competitive contest as they try to close out their road trip on a high note. 10.5 points are too many to pass up. After losing to the Knicks, Beasley brought up the fact that the Suns have a tendency to fall behind early and claw their way back into the game, only to come up short. I think the Suns come out motivated to end their losing streak and close their road trip on a high note. This game may be ripe for a backdoor cover.

Whats worse is that I was on tilt after this game so I took Orlando +8 and the over in the 2H @ 99. I was confident about it going over and Magic covering so i after taking the Magic +8 and Over I parlayed both as well. End up losing by a pt smdh!

Matt Barnes really phucked us over. I believe the Clippers were up 4 and he bricked two free throws. If he makes just one of those, it alters the strategy of the Jazz. Very disappointing result based on the events that took place.

Yeah he sure did that phucker. Then in that magic game, as the time rolls down you expect GS to foul and they don't even foul wtf! They just let the clock run down from like 30 seconds it was the most annoying thing ever.

Doesn't that piss you off? Basic late game strategy is lost on these morons. I'm amazed at how incompetent some of these teams are during crunch time. They shit the bed and then complain that it stinks.

WINNER!!! This game was utter phucking bullsh!t and should not have been this close at the end! The Suns literally led for the first 45 minutes of this game and covered for the first 48 minutes before going into overtime. Of course OT was the worst thing that could happen to a team finishing off a long road trip and the Suns collapsed. We were very fortunate to win by a half point. I thought this game was all but wrapped up as the closing minutes counted down in regulation, only to watch the Suns miss key free throws that would have sealed the game. Oh well, at least we won.
SIDE NOTE: I forgot to put how much I was wagering in my initial post, but if you notice, I bet 3% of my bankroll on each game. The record below reflects tonight's win using the 3% that I wagered. It was $173.85 to win $158.05

Thanks.
The game played out as I expected. The Suns came out and gave great effort for the first 48 minutes. Unfortunately, overtime happened and they appeared to run out of steam. I feel robbed by overtime and blessed to cover by a half point. See you guys tomorrow.

Yeah, it happens. What do you think about the T-Wolves/Celtics under and the Portland/Indiana under? The latter looks really good.

I'm steering clear of totals for awhile.
Did you at least push on the Suns play?
Text me in the morning and I'll text you back who I like once I've capped.

To be honest, I lean over on the T-Wolves @ Celtics @ 189.
Rondo will be back and I have a feeling he will be ready to prove something. I'd rather take the UNDER on the Portland @ Indiana contest @ 187. Pacers coming off of a HUGE rivalry win over Chicago. My only worry is how poorly Portland plays defense. Out of the two, I like the Indiana game better.

Word, that is a good point on Rondo and the Celtics. I'm hoping that the b2b games for the T-Wolves means some players just go through the motions (like the Heat last night) and the few games missed by Rondo has a negative impact on his performance. As I write this I can't help but feel shame for just saying that about Rondo, I live in Boston and the Celtics are my favorite NBA team.
