2/17 picking wizards to win tomorrow at home

[jerseykai]

the two main point contributors for the wizards are expected to be jamison and butler.

for the t-wolves, who knows?

wizards tend to dominate wolves in previous meetings, without al jefferson and craig smith the team is doing fine, but can they get over the wizard's hump away without jefferson? i predict no.
wizards are missing a lot of people also, but just like the timberwolves, they are used to playing on without everyone else, as long as they have butler and jamison contributing at least 20 a piece, wizards should win at home. i hope the rest does some good for the wizards, and i hope that it screws up the chemistry the t-wolves have so far. this game is a tossup, because i can't really judge how well each team will come out playing.

-9.5?

-9.5?

yes it opened at -9.5 for the wizards spread and now it is at -3

Dude, it didn't open at -9.5!

Both sbrlines and thespread.com say it opened at Wizards -3.

[jerseykai]

maybe it did open at -3. i don't know why covers shows it at -9.5. here is the link
covers.com/pageloader/pageLoader.aspx?page=/data/nba/matchups/g5_summary_3.html

that also lists the opening over/under as 139.5. definitely the wrong game, and wrong league at that.

Lol for sure that's just a typo unless Jamison and Butler are out and the Mascot takes their place. With all that said, I like the wizards also. I feel the Timberwolves were red hot in January and will continue to cool off in the second half of the season. Foye is playing nothing like he had been and without jefferson, jamison and butler should be enough for a win. GL.

Yeah covers is wrong there...just went through line history on SI with all the major books and it opened at 3. Minny not the same team without Jefferson.

I tend to think the Wiz are able to win at home... But I have learned two things while on this form. 1- Don't fade the T-wolves in 2009. 2- Don't fade Ck very often. I will be staying away, but best of luck.
