I keep taking them. Not sure why....

They look fine and then the wheels fall off in the 4th quarter and it doesn't seem like they score again.

Bucks we know are awful though. Nets occasionally show a glimpse of an ok team. Cut it to 62-58 and then bam down 25.

Nets are awful too.

Lopez is their best player imo and they don't even go through him.

Well SBR's resident nba expert picked them as a title contender so when they win in 2028 you can be damn sure he will be here to say "I told you so."

I do kind of like Toronto tonight. The Warriors haven't been playing their best of late. Lost 2 of 4 on the road trip but easily could have lost all 4.

**t-wizzle** · 12-03-13, 10:05 PM

Raptors +8 -105 (2x); ML +305 (.5x)

Raptors 1H +4.5 -115 (.5x)

Hey T-wizzle...First off good luck with all your bets today! Second, Do you see that raptors/warrior game going over or under? I already bet the over because Golden state can easily put up 110 at home and I think that the Raptors have enough scorers to get to 100... Anyway just wanted to know what you thought. GL again.

Thanks for the wishes. Man I'm sorry but I'd be better off flipping a coin. I rarely ever touch totals.

**Butterface** · 12-03-13, 10:28 PM

No worries man. Thanks!

**t-wizzle** · 12-03-13, 11:47 PM

Raptors 2H +9.5 -110 (1x)

This will be the play that loses because I got greedy but I do not think Warriors will come back in this game. A run or two but lose by 10+.

**Butterface** · 12-03-13, 11:50 PM

I don't see the warriors winning at all.... GL on your play...

**t-wizzle** · 12-04-13, 07:44 AM

I thought the final score was just a bad dream. Wow.

Raptors are cursed. how the hell do you blow a 27 lead and then lose by 9? U can't cap this kinda performance.

**t-wizzle** · 12-04-13, 06:41 PM

Cavaliers +3.5 -102 (6x); ML +150 (3x)

Hawks +2.5 -105 (2x)

Pelicans ML -135 (2x)

Bucks +4.5 -105 (2x)

Timberwolves +4.5 -108 (3x)

Sorry no time for write-ups. Decided to start fading Nuggets last night. Cavs time to turn it around.

**t-wizzle** · 12-04-13, 10:05 PM

Thunder +2.5 -109 (2x); ML +120 (1x)

**BigDofBA** · 12-04-13, 10:09 PM

Fade OKC next game against New Orleans.

It's a horrible spot. Third game of the road trip sandwiched between Portland and Indiana.

I do like them tonight but Portland is a tough place to play and I think the Blazers are for real.

**Speedy88** · 12-04-13, 10:09 PM

G/L Wiz. Obviously a Thunder line.

**t-wizzle** · 12-04-13, 11:17 PM

Thanks hopefully okc hangs on. I think Portland has to be drained.

**Seto** · 12-05-13, 02:46 AM

You like the card tomorrow? I actually like all 3 games quite a bit.

Nets look like the play in the battle of the neighbour losers being the home team and the one that's at least shown flashes (I don't think the Knicks will improve until they fire Woody or Chandler comes back), Bulls look ok vs the Heat and especially like the Clippers against the Grizz even though it's well documented the Clippers always fukk me.

**t-wizzle** · 12-05-13, 01:33 PM

I don't really like the 3 games seto. Not sure if I will bet any of them. Bulls should give great effort but tough to take them right now.

**t-wizzle** · 12-05-13, 08:05 PM

Clippers +1 -110 (4x)

**t-wizzle** · 12-05-13, 08:32 PM

Bulls +4.5 -107 (2.5x)

**Tommy Karate** · 12-05-13, 10:35 PM

you square up and stay sharp beautifully...too many folks are extreme either way.

Haha because of Clippers? Yea you know how it is TK. Gotta just try and find the right side and forget the other stuff.

you always seem to mix it up, but yes, obviously these 2 plays stuck out. i went the risky route tonight and chased the sharp play.

**t-wizzle** · 12-06-13, 08:20 AM

Celtics +5 -108 (10); ML +170 (3x)

Cavaliers +6 -105 (4x); ML +220 (1x)

I will try to post a brief writeup on s game at some point today.

**Seto** · 12-06-13, 09:48 AM

Like both plays (and potentially the craptors) but not really feeling anything big tonight. GL

**t-wizzle** · 12-06-13, 10:05 AM

Raptors +4 -108 (3x); ML +165 (1x)

Raptors have had plenty of time to think about that shitshow from Tuesday night. Suns in letdown spot after the big win over Houston.

**Seto** · 12-06-13, 10:17 AM

Looks like we like the same things. Any idea why the Raptors line moved from -4.5 to -3.5? Seems like a lot of movement for a game that you would think would be pretty low-profile for the public. Movement was progressive too so I don't think it's due to any injuries which would move the line all of a sudden.

**t-wizzle** · 12-06-13, 11:15 AM

Lines always move around 10 am eastern time seto. That's when a lot of sharp money seems to move lines.

**t-wizzle** · 12-06-13, 06:18 PM

Boston has a pretty bad roster on paper but you can't say they haven't played hard this year. I've said since Day 1 that I do not think Denver is a good team this year. I really think they will struggle to make the playoffs out West when they've been a staple of those playoffs for years now. The thing about the Nuggets is that they've always been a hot and cold team. They'll go on a run and win like 10 of 11 games and then lose 4 of 5. I think they are coming back to earth now following the loss to Cleveland the other night and think they should be a decent fade over the next week or two.

This is a huge game for the Celtics. You'd have to think they won't be getting any other national tv games this year so this is their one game to shine. I expect an energy-filled Garden and inspired effort from Boston tonight.

Other notes:

- I think Cavs are about to go on a decent little run. They aren't that great but they aren't as bad as they've looked early on either. Atlanta is giving too many points in this one.

- Raptors might be dicey but I think they win this game tonight after what happened in the meltdown on Tuesday.

- Kind of like the Thunder but not going to bet that one.

- Golden State/Houston intrigues me but no play as of yet. Are there injuries??

**t-wizzle** · 12-06-13, 09:09 PM

Jazz +11 -105 (2x)

**Tommy Karate** · 12-06-13, 11:46 PM

i had high expectations for the cavs, but they are horrible - and it all starts with kyrie irving who is a bum.

I hear you. Fukk them.

Bad night after hitting my big play.

**t-wizzle** · 12-07-13, 06:33 PM

Spurs -3.5 -109 (5x)

Pacers have slowed down a bit while San Antonio has had some extra time to prepare for this game tonight and rest those old men.

Agreed. Pacers are good, but they have overachieved up to this point. They are good, but they are not 17-2 good. They are coming back down to earth. Pinny just moved Spurs to -4, good sign.

Any idea what Portland is only -5 tonight? I still think that game is Portland or pass.
