Leans for Friday 3/6/09

[The_Kid]

Bobcats look damn good!

I should have taken them for the 1Q too..

[djpremier36]

Why did Toronto's coach take Bosh out with 2:23 left in the 1st quarter? I don't get it. The guy can't run for a whole quarter?

I believe the coach was trying to send a message to Bosh. He's back in now.

Toronto 1Q

[cocknocker]

Cha-ching! Toronto 1st quarter cashes!

[pho3nix32]

this is great phoenix. i am definitely playing this as well. line's moved from 203 to 201 and 200 in a few books. what do you think about the suns/rockets game? and about amare being out for the playoffs?? devastating news..

no play for me on the suns game. id rather have the suns in the lottery than facing the lakers in the first round. they have a whole lot of work to do for their future.

[peetlui]

I think they got a chance at the 8th seed in the East. Trading J-rich for Diaw/Bell was brilliant.

Thx for the correction Peet...I got my signals crossed

Good luck to you bro.

[peetlui]

Damn if Orl/NJ don't slow it up at this pace the under is gonna be toast.

[cocknocker]

Yale 1st half cashes the ticket!

[The_Kid]

Damn if Orl/NJ don't slow it up at this pace the under is gonna be toast.

Don't worry, peet. Still a long ways to go. NJ won't shoot over 60% for the game.

[cocknocker]

I'm gonna take Tennessee-Martin 2nd half if the score stays the way it is. You already know that they are gonna make a push in the 2nd half with all of that talent. I had them pegged to win this game by 4....

Looking to go reasonably big on a money line

Hi everyone long time lurker, occaisonal poster

I am looking for a Points Spread to go on reasonably large to make up some of my recent losses from the last few weeks.

I am thinking probably the Spurs -12 but wanted some last minute opinions as to if we are sure they will cash

[pho3nix32]

CK and Pho3nix,

I'm taking Lakers/Timberwolves UNDER 215. 59% of money is on the OVER, but the OVER/UNDER remain at 215. It seems like Lakes will lose interest somewhere in the game, knowing that they already defeated the puppies 3 times this season. And Minny could bring on their best defense to try to get a win. What you guys think?

if i were to play this game, i would take the under. the wolves need telfair in their running attack. if telfair does not play today, the wise play is the under.

[peetlui]

Don't worry, peet. Still a long ways to go. NJ won't shoot over 60% for the game.

Got my fingers crossed Kid....this is my largest bet of the day/night. Thanks.... gl to you

[ManBearPig]

Just got GS at +10.5 so bought the 2 pts to 12.5 for a solid JM play tonight

[cocknocker]

Took Tennessee-Martin-3.5 2nd half

[The_Kid]

Got my fingers crossed Kid....this is my largest bet of the day/night. Thanks.... gl to you

I also doubt Howard goes another 9-9 from the stripe in the 2H of this game too.

[woodyman]

Just got GS at +10.5 so bought the 2 pts to 12.5 for a solid JM play tonight

be glad you waited... i got it at 9. grr.. so had to buy 3 to get to 12

[google99]

I'm gonna take Tennessee-Martin 2nd half if the score stays the way it is. You already know that they are gonna make a push in the 2nd half with all of that talent. I had them pegged to win this game by 4....

30-24 morehead halftime,

i like the call here Tenn -3.5 2H

[CP Thrizzle]

wow GS up to +11 now

[google99]

Jackson is not playing thats why

[redbull]

play or not , gs speed too fast for piston
-10.5 will not clear

hit on birthday boy
pho all in !

[suckatmyjob]

man my part time job at this restuarant is taking up my weekend capping when it's busy

[peetlui]

I'm with you CK, Tenn Martin -4 2nd 1/2.

[ManBearPig]

Well at this pace the ORL/NJ is gonna blow the under out the water by the start of the 4th quarter...they need to slow this dam thing down!

[RoagBettor]

The NJ/Orl under is dead.

[ManBearPig]

I don't expect both teams to be 50+% from 3 and NJ to continue shooting 60% for the game. I'm remaining hopeful that the 3rd is a much slower paced qtr.

[ram1502]

We might need the Flames to score a goal or two if we want this game to go over.
EDIT: Just as I type that, the Hurricanes make it 5-0. Man, they score in bunches. They are on fire tonight.

[AussieDave]

Booked:

Suns / Rockets U116.5 @ the half

AD

[Dexter]

austin peay +2.5

[ram1502]

What the hell is going on in the Canadiens/Thrashers game? 6 penalties at once? Huge brawl or what?

[cocknocker]

Piss on Tennessee-Martin. I had them pegged as a bracket buster, now they may not even make it to the NCAA Tournament

[cocknocker]

But Yale cashed the ticket though!

[RoagBettor]

Piss on Orlando also

[Dexter]

yeah, barely there bud - my dartmouth geeks had it down to 8 with a minute left! lol

[pho3nix32]

line: njn@om 203
pick: 203 under

Trends:

- The under for New Jersey is 10-6 after scoring 105 or more in the previous game this season.
- The under for Orlando is 15-10 after scoring 105 or more in the previous game this season.
- The under for Orlando is 8-3 after 2 days rest this season.
- The under for Orlando is 18-11 at home this season.
- The under for Orlando is 27-20 as favorites this season.
- Head to head, the under is 7-2 in meetings in the last 3 seasons.
- Head to head, the under is 4-1 in meetings in Orlando for the last 3 seasons.

Keys to an under total:

1. Quoting CK, "The Nets will be playing their 4th game in 5 days". No legs on outside shots = bricks.
2. Superman.
3. Orlando gives up only 90 ppg at home. New Jersey gives up 100 ppg on the road. You guys do the math here.

sorry for those who tailed me...both teams scoring like there's no tomorrow...orlando is really different without nelson
