strictlywinners · 01-09-09, 11:29 AM

Yea I could use a rebound day, down from 35k to 23k, really I should just stop and take what I'm up going into next week but thats not really my style. I will have ATlanta and the moneyline. Oklahoma is really bothering me, I forgot Bob Stoops is terrible big game coach.

dont know where you play but Greek has the LA total at 225. 2 points might help

NBA Hero · 01-09-09, 11:41 AM

but dallas is not the same anymore.

Yes I know Total did drop to 225 lucky for me I didn't take it yet, I usually wait on putting my games in, but I've been trying to post what I like as soon as I see it. I saw it early this morning at 227 so thats what I posted it at, if you can get it at better number then number posted, I like it even more.

NBA Hero
Yes I know Dallas isn't the same anymore and this is now up to 5.5 which is exactly what I saw happening. Phoenix is coming off bad loss to Pacers, everyone and there mother still thinks its Dantoni's phoenix that was a good team, well its not it is Terry Porters Suns, and while I like him, he really is not a good coach. Phoenix will come out trying to play a good game but they won't

Oklahoma Pisses Me Off

I lost everything I made during the bowl season on Stoops' stupid coaching skills. Like you probably, I lost out on both the game and the over/under. Oklahoma's offense was overrated after all and it cost me big to learn that lesson.

Dana, got to move pass the losses quick or they will multiply with bad decisions. Just like the wins, forget them and move on. Whats the opinion on Mia 4.5 after a tough loss to Den? Wade is playing lights out, I wish the line was a little smaller.

I also think that D Wade prefers the Friday night spotlight to showcase his talent.

Atlanta +5
This one is pretty easy Orlando just beat them at their place, now they travel to Orlando, the Hawks coaching staff will make the proper adjustments to make sure they leave Orlando with a win.

Cavs vs. Celtics Under 183.5
Love the under in this spot Celtics keep on losing, they need to start playing defense again, for whatever reason they have chosen not to, probably because they were 29-2 and got bored. Big game for them they will come to play, Lebron and Cavs win on defensive side of the ball, they also will be playing lock down D.

Lakers vs. Pacers Over 227
Ok we have a good offensive team that doesn't now how to play Defense in the Pacers, then we have an amazing offensive team that doesn't like to play Defense, this = big over. Scoring is fun for the players they will both have a blast scoring lots and lots of points.

Dallas +4.5
I like the Suns but they are lost right now, yes even more lost then Dallas, and I know its hard to believe. They can't decide whether they want to run, play half court set or what. Until they find their identity it is a good thing to be going against them.

as I just saw the line go up to +5.5. Phoenix defense is atrocious and I just can't trust that defense. Dallas defense is atrocious as well and both teams seem to have a problem against young quick teams. Those types of teams gives both teams troubles at the end of games. I don't think Phoenix should be getting more than 3 points spread against this young atlethic Dallas team. Dallas got blew out by Memphis on the road but Memphis athleticism killed Dallas. Both Dallas and Phoenix likes to play from behind. I think this game will go down to the wire and I'm playing Dallas at +7.0. I think they keep this close or possibly win this as well.

Wilforth · 01-09-09, 12:56 PM

I think Dallas/Phoenix 1H Over should cash. Both teams will score freely especially in the 1H.

Adding Detroit +4
At first I didn't like this one bit, because as I have said before, I feel Denver is a much better team without Carmello Anthony, the ball movement is better people hustle more and the ball doesn't fall into the black hole that is Carmello ANthony. That being said why would I like Detroit, heres why, Billups was the leader of Detroit for a long long time. Here's the thing about having a leader that you listen to, you learn alot about him and his tendencies, you know what he will try to do under curtain circumstances. Detroits players are smart enough to use this is their advantage. Denver on the other hand is not such a bright team, JR Smith probably the most talented player in the league, yes thats right, I think JR SMITH is the most talented player in the league, but he is also the worst decision maker in the league. He will make bad decisions tonight and turn the ball over. Pistons should win outright.

Celtics +4
Fadethepublic apparently has some inside info. on this game. I don't know about all of that but who knows, but I do thank him for bringing this game back into my radar. I love the Celtics now that I thought about it. Here is the reason, Celtics are great team right? How many of you have lost alot of money betting on them over the last 2 weeks?My guess is alot, now bettors are starting to fall out of love with the Celtics, they are angry at them for losing them money, now they play a team that actually should beat them, bettors will jump all over the Cavs and then the Celtics will win, thats just the way it goes. Celtics +4 is my play.

Wow I couldn't have been anymore wrong on this atlanta game. 0-1 start hopefully that means the winners are coming.
