Portland +5.5

[hawley]

Am I the only one who likes this play?

I'm not quite sold on the Rockets. Can see the Blazers easily winning this one SU.

[brainfreeze0]

I'm on the Rockets.. Harden's on a roll

[Bbr]

i just put 250 on rockets -5.5 :S OPening up the NBA season with two road wins is not an easy thing to do.

First home game for the rockets and theyll want to show there home fans what they are made off. They will go for portlands necks.

[Bbr]

lin, harden and asik is working. Blazers dunt really have a hustler to shut down lin/harden. Harden may go nuts again just like westbrook today.

Westbrook penetrated the paint on numerous occasions. Rockets will look at the tape.

[hawley]

Maybe I am reading it wrong. I didn't see either of the games today to be fair.

Will Harden score 40 again?

[hawley]

Can Lin guard Lillard?

[Bbr]

Lin has been working on his defensive game. Looking sharp this season. Nice hustling for boards too

[Bbr]

Hawley! celts/wizards under 192.5???

[hawley]

Ok ill get on league pass tonight and check out the Rockets and Blazers games from today.

LMA shot the ball pretty bad today from the looks of it?

Hawley! celts/wizards under 192.5???

Any word on Nene or Booker?

[Bbr]

Any word on Nene or Booker?

Not sure atm. Total goes under regardless i reckon.

[brainfreeze0]

Washington lost their last game in Cleveland and will be fighting at home. Boston lost their last 2 and got stomped tonight. Think it will be a fight. To iffy and will prolly pass on game entirely with or without Nene or Booker

[brainfreeze0]

On a different note I took Bobcats +9 1/2 against Dallas

[hawley]

Boston on a b2b will not be pushing the tempo

[brainfreeze0]

Boston on a b2b will not be pushing the tempo

This early in the season b2b's are not a factor. What is a major factor is being 0-2 and 0-1

[hawley]

In that case I see Boston really trying to lock down on D.

Exactly. C's will lock down on D. There D has not been too flash this season but I think against the wizards they will get there mojo back. Wizards are trash, they will find it difficult to penetrate the paint, especially with wall out. Last time they played C's were thin in the back court and still managed to win- This was with booker and wall healthy as well. Wizards are just bad.

[LT Profits]

I think Houston line is inflated considering Portland may be better at 4 of the 5 starting positions. And Matthews will make Harden work defensively too.

[Bbr]

Boston under Cash money!!!!

Hawley looking good so far on your blazers pick, the jury is still out on Houston after their impressive start to the season. I for one am not sold on them at all and don't expec them to make the playoffs

me neither. this game could be a reality check.

[sportsfanatic]

it's over, down 8 pts, 1:23 LEFT

[hawley]

I thought this was going to be a classic case of the dog covering then getting rolled and blowing the cover in OT.


Rockets are overrated IMO. Come on now a starting unit including Paterson, Asik and Parsons is not good.

Happy to see Lillard getting it done down the stretch. Guy is a very talented kid with a cool story.

[Bbr]

well called hawley. props

[The Giant]

Nice call, buddy.

[Louisvillekid1]

Nice hit...

[therealdealau]

Cash it my dude
