why is denver so heavy favourite over portland??

Mocknroll · 12-20-12, 03:38 AM

Depth and form.

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 03:44 AM

ok..will look into more depth later..just first glance..depth/form vs homecourt/team spirit...

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 04:08 AM

screw him, i will tell you the winner! do you want it?

MTM · 12-20-12, 04:14 AM

Watch a Denver match 3 weeks ago. Watch a Denver match this week. Getting contributions from everywhere and gallinari starting to shoot the ball well.

Portland really struggling to get consistent performances from anyone outside of Batum, lillard, lma, Hickson, Matthews.

But yes home court is an advantage

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 04:24 AM

so what is the winner? or do you want me to give it to you?

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 04:25 AM

also what is the spread for the game?

vasilli07 · 12-20-12, 04:25 AM

Aldridge will be out tomorrow.

MTM · 12-20-12, 04:41 AM

I haven't seen the spread yet. I reckon I would go for Denver if it's 6 or less. I won't touch Portland ATS personally.

I like all the square plays tomorrow.

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 04:44 AM

why aldridge out vasilli??

Ankle? injury very late in the game against the Hornets.

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 04:52 AM

yep no aldridge ..in moon boot..thatsthe reason heavyfavouritesdenver

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 05:32 AM

what is the spread?

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 06:25 AM

you'd be fairly optimistic no aldridge no matthews portland

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 06:26 AM

Minnesota the better dog i think.

MTM · 12-20-12, 06:29 AM

Isn't mathews 50/50? Might be part of the reason I can't get a spread on this game yet.

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 01:56 PM

here is the free bail out play portland plus points 3rd quarter 10 dimes! gl

Reign Man · 12-20-12, 02:14 PM

didn't see Aldridge was out but even with him out I think Portland still puts up a fight, they're tough at home while Denver on the road is not. leaning towards taking the under

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 02:25 PM

going to be a dog fight..one dog going to win..portland or timber hounds

innovation · 12-20-12, 02:27 PM

Denver plays at Clippers on chrimbo day.

They best take care of business against a less than par Portland team.

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 02:36 PM

BOL Ino..one dog will win or go very close ..minno or port

phillybadboy · 12-20-12, 02:44 PM

just take my free play you will not lose

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 02:50 PM

i can only get 1st half market and 1st qtr market philly..what are u saying philly? + points 3rd qtr time portlan?..hard to get that type of market

vaas187 · 12-20-12, 02:53 PM

denver is probably the only solid spread tonight.

ppl act as if vegas set the line low hoping for money on the other side. its over 80% on MIA and OKC....maybe one hits and they profit still but cant see it. MIN ML and MIA ML are prob the best bets but fukk juice in the nba

shimeon40 · 12-20-12, 02:56 PM

see this is a good thread because people are prepared to discuss thoughts..eventually someone might settle on a winner based on what they have read..just discussion..no snide smart ass comments like on other threads.

shimeon40 · 12-21-12, 12:31 AM

ML & points in Minny and Port.

MTM · 12-21-12, 01:28 AM

Yea you called it right. I think I have an over inflated opinion of okc. Timberwolves looked really good, especially front court I didn't think kirilenko and pekovic would do so well

Eagles27 · 12-21-12, 01:30 AM

All I have to say is 0-22, 1 jump shot made the entire game. Unbelievable.

shimeon40 · 12-21-12, 02:41 AM

hope someone won something..thats the general idea..help 1 another..teamwork.
