Rising Stars Challenge Game

[easyliving]

shaq's team 5 point favs while the total is at 282. I remember last year Shaq's team was heavy favorites and Chuck's team played great and won with ease. The over is the first thing that catches my eye as I think they will score at least 285 here. Anyone else betting this thing?

call me crazy np but i hit this game almost every year..luck or skill ill take it..Drummond is out for Team Shaq...pretty big deal..but this will be a track meet and the big guys usually dont matter very much..all that said i like the points with team chuck and this one really looks like a track meet with over 300 points scored not out of the question..Rubio may have 20 assists in this game with ten going to hi lobs to the manamal Faried!

I really liked Team Shaq when the teams first came out. Drummond not playing seems like it is a big deal, and Faried would scare me a bit. One year Dejuan Blair seemed like he was playing twice as hard as everyone else and really F'd things up for us on the other side.

Still, how do you go against those guards on Team Shaq in a game like this? Once you are convinced Kyree is going to play significant minutes, hammer away. This game boils down to nerve. Have guards that don't mind taking the ball to the rim time after time is what it is all about.

PS - Klay Thompson worries me a bit if he shoots a lot of jumpers. That is not what you want out of your all-star side.

Good Luck.

you guys realize it is only 40 minutes? I think this is too many points

[Pick'nParlays]

40 minutes of scoring...

[WAR BUCKS]

3 words WALKER and IRVING whos stopping them rubio or beal or 4'9 thomas

3 words WALKER and IRVING whos stopping them rubio or beal or 4'9 thomas

You're forgetting that irving is gonna be limited on minutes. Its an exhibition game. Irving has the 3point contest and the all-star game. Team Chuck all day.

[mojojo]

Easiest prop Faried +4.5 over kyrie in total of points,rebounds, and assists.

[easyliving]

wasn't aware that its 40 minutes regretting my over play already, should I hedge out?

[shookid]

ride it out. if it loses double up on all star game over. they scored 279 in this same type of game last year.

[mojojo]

last year it ended 146-133. It gonna be close

[mtc44380]

My line has moved from 282 to 285.5... I was going to bet the under when it was 282, but I saw it was ticking up all day... now I just get a 3.5pt cushion.
I think the winning team will have between 130-137pts, I am also thinking it will be close, 129-134 team SHAQ comes out ahead.

[meader99]

In a track meet, I will take the guards..... Kyrie, Klay, Lillard, Walker, Waiters and Barnes. Big guys can't rebound when they are taking it out of the net all day.

[TCU]

It's a coin toss game, might as well take the dog at ML. At least I can team for somebody then.

My thoughts exactly. Too fast in transition.

[Speedy88]

Everyone will play team Shaq because he has the "better" roster. Skill has nothing to do with this game. It comes down to which team tries harder, and which team plays more defense. Chuck's roster is full of hustle players who will play defense. I'll happily take the 6 points with team Chuck. Can't even believe I'm betting on this, but there isn't much in college today.

[OaksPK]

On chuck +6

[GoeGurt]

u see how davis reacted when he was picked haha it was like the oakland raiders where picking him so disappointed

And these guards are good 3 points shooters too. The Chuck bigs will be forced to defend them further from the basket too.

[WAR BUCKS]

lol at ppl trying to cap this game good luck with that going with better team easy as that team SHAQ

Everyone should take this into consideration. Only people who knows the game thinks like this.

[panik]

I just saw the coach saying they are ging to break records... Shulda went with the over dammit

[Mac4Lyfe]

I hammered the over as soon as I heard that...

I cant believe I missed it.... Damn SIA closed the lines way too early fu c k

[mtc44380]

Well, that was a high scoring half, I guess I underestimated how lazy this game was going to be.
Oh well, live and learn. Maybe the D will pick up in the 2nd half. hahaha. (good joke)

[Spoon19xx]

I feel stupid for taking shaq ml

[Mac4Lyfe]

284.5

Hope they keep this up...

What was the closing #?

[mtc44380]

Am I the only poor soul who took the under.
My closing line was 285.5

[easyliving]

Is shaq -7 for the 2nd half the play? gotta think they at least make a run.

Who cares about Kyrie Irving, Damian Lillard. If they were actually trying like the MLB all star game, then i'd possibly think about taking Shaq -6. But always go with the weaker team in these type of games.

[easyliving]

easy cash with the over.
