    cn leaf, you're about to laugh at this one. Greek has taken the Utah/Miami game OFF the board altogether @ 11:47 am pst! And now the consensus is 50% to 50%

    Is the Utah game off the board everywhere. I went to eat and came back to put my play and it was gone?

    im new to all of this, and i may say that predictions are awsome...though tell me something is miami going to win or utah? im only learning by reading all your spreads..but still trying to work out the "-" thing and "+" thing as i usual bet on o's and unders, or hd/hd.

    they adjust NOR line to -8.5. Shaq should be rested tonite. It can be the same situation for UTA. someone is coming out to play for UTA.

    nick2060,

    the linemaker has realized that he has made a mistake and has been notified by certain books that he has done so, and the games wer taken off the board while he is trying to appease the books outrage at the amount of bettors placing their money on a certain side that was thought to be the secret or the books side. I know that me and the peope that I associate with privately pounded Utah immediately when the line went down to 3.5, buying a point to make our spreads 2.5. Linesmaker Sportbook had it at 3.5 the longest (30 minutes), Greek had it up for only 15 minutes or so. Then it became hard to pull up their site altogether for a minute.

    Hopefully the line doesn't come back on the board as Utah -6.5 for the CK mafia types that didn't log on earlier. 6 is perfect, but 6.5 is 8 in basketball wagering. So if so, a hook should be bought to make it 6, as that is around where i had this game pegged from the giddy.

    Hey Ck. You still like LA -9 and Bos -14? And What about the Cavs? I say Lebron and team should have their way with the knicks?

    cs11787,

    I would either buy a point for Boston to take it straight, or tease both of them together (Boston-9, Lakers-5) and shorten your bet amount. Boston-13 is basically the same as -12, as it would take a 14 point win to cash the ticket. If you make the Lakers-8. It still takes a 9 point win to cash your ticket. So you might as well take the 9. All that that means is that the Lakers must win by 10 in order to make everyone happy.

    Thanks you too. Still no thoughts on the knicks cavs game guys? Knicks had a good run last night just like the pacers did (except knicks ended up losing). Now theyre going to Cleveland. Sounds like it should be a blowout no?

    Nash is doubtful because of flu like symptoms. He didn't even participate in the morning shootaround, so it looks like he won't be playing. They are calling Wade a game time decision though the Coach said he is feeling better than yesterday.

    I would definitely play the under if anything... no way the sixers score more than 90 and the lakers will happily sit on 108... the sixers have nothing but jump shooters and a few drivers, but the lakers won't let people in the lane, using their overwhelming size advantage over the sixers, and after getting burned by jump shooters last night, there's no way they let a group of less talented jump shooters burn them tonight. From what i've seen the sixers just aren't good enough to hang with the lakers, athleticism, shooting, and definitely down low.. plus i will ALWAYS pound the lakers coming off a loss. Phil straightens them up good and gets them coming out much better and more professionally dominant, especially defensively speaking... they will d the hell up as they have been doing this year, and philly just doesn't have the talent that the pacers have to compete. lakers get pissed after losing and you don't want to piss the lakers off... they just might slaughter you.

    MIL -4

    michael redd is coming back tonight, and ordinarily i'd prefer to fade for minute mixing purposes, but the bulls are tired after an emotional OT loss last night and are facing an angry bucks squad who has gotten slapped around last two and still remembers losing to chicago on opening day, so add revenge to the mix and i can't see the bucks NOT covering tonight...

    any thoughts CK?

    and damn... still can't get UTAH on sportsbook... lame.

    Bogut has been great for the Bucks this year, wang.

    Do you reckon he will play considering his knee? Something to think about when taking the Bucks but they do look good.

    Milwaukee Bucks status date
    Andrew Bogut Day-to-Day Dec 2
    Comment: Bogut (knee) is expected to practice on Tuesday and could be back in action for the first time since getting hurt on Nov. 24, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Ya I already took LA -8.5. They will be pissed and fired up tonight. Both teams played last night too and I believe Lakers have more stamina. Also, is it luck I just got Utah -3.5 from a local that didnt have a clue what was going on?

    Lakers 1st half tonight is bank

    Take the lakers 1st half -5 heavy. The players are pissed off, the coaches are pissed off, there is no way the lakers wont be up by double digits by half time. LOCK IT!
