    an OMG wtf is Vegas thinking, LOCK
    Raptors -3.5

    I know I know, the Raptors suck...

    But they are a completely different team at home, this is a joke, should be -6 or -7, Indiana is a horrible road team, and 2 ex-Raptors (TJ Ford, and Nesterovich) will be returning.

    Expect the ACC to give them a "warm welcome"

    Raps role in this one...

    Was feeling this one too for some strange reason. Really feel Raptors are due and this game is the start of it. Even with all that said they are not that different at home with a 4-5 record lol.

        The Raptors are better than what their record indicates, and heres why:

        1) the Raptors have the 2nd hardest schedule in the NBA (so far)
        2) the Raptors are a VERY good home team, they should have beaten the Blazers last home game, they gave the Celtics a run for their money, and they care of business against a solid Atlanta team in their last 3 home games.
        3) Coaching changes are still taking effect, the players will adjust soon
        4) Injuries to Calderon and Oneal have thrown off the chemistry of this team, but they will get it back @ Home tomorrow.

                    i hope granger will not have a good shoting day. parker should be able to shut down either daniels or granger.

                    the only prob is the position of murphy at the 3 area. difficult to defend.

                        all said and done, the raptors are a weak ass team.

                        their defense is horrible, expect granger to light it up, as well as daniels.

                        tj will have a chip on his shoulder, he wants to show me calderon and the raps organization.

                        so with that said, i would tease the pacers if anything

                            Just be careful with betting on the Raptors. They seem totally lost and awkward. On the first look it seems like Raptors should take care of business at home. TJ might be too excited to stick it to his old team and it might play in to Raptors hands. But Raptors are struggling quite a bit that u can’t really take them with confidence. I would pass on this game, but if u r going to bet, tread carefully.

                                  the pacers are going to win outright, no1 can cover danny granger and he might go for 30+ and the bobcats have a 0% chance of winning IN new orleans

                                      i think it was -5, so its been bet down. The public loves Indiana plus the points

                                        the public doesn't love Indiana, its reverse line movement. Unless i'm seeing some wrong numbers, but i see 64 percent on Toronto

                                              if you watched all the raptors games this season, you should see that the raps defense is brutal...

                                              this is how it goes: calderon gets beat by opponent PG's penetration, the help comes inside the paint, kickout for the 3 pointer, SWISH.

                                              also, i think rasho can atleast contain jermaine, but i dont know about bosh. (hes been struggling lately though). pacers have gotten a couple good rebounders in rasho, murphy, and FOSTER.

                                              also, bargnani is matched up against granger, guess who has the advantage ?
                                              and once kapono comes off the bench, and moon :S

                                                Dont forget that Oneal will also be playing his old team...

                                                You know how the ACC gets on Ex-Raptors (ie. Vince Carter)

                                                Ford is too fragile to take that kind of abuse from the fans.

                                                  If you feel the pacers will cover, then by all means take them. But I have confidence in the Raps, especially at home.

                                                    Under SBR scoreboard/matchup it states Indiana should be a 5pt favorite and they have the edge. So I ask myself the question. Why is a team that should be a favorite the underdog?

                                                      I'm not tryin to bash your pick but im sure you realize vince carter is like public enemy number one, he gave up on the team and couldn't play through any pain, and in Canada where hockey is the national sport really, not being a wuss is highly expected, so yea they hate vince carter but i really dont think theres any harsh feelings towards tj ford or nesterovich, with that said im not sure i trust the pacers enough to win either, just think you exagerated with your wtf is vegas thinking, lock statement

                                                        live in indiana. pacers beat the lakers, almost beat the celtics twice, last was in overtime... very seldom get smoked!! I like the pacers to come out with alot of energy, and hang around all game.... 105-104 raptors

                                                            raptors are garbage
                                                            until they do something worthwhile, dont bet them, not as faves anyhow
