more of an instinct play here than anything - i'm going to side with the better defensive team, and play the cavs plus my projected line of 3.5.

the suns finally get back home after an up and down 6 game east coast trip. spurs have won 3 of 5 su in phx, and should be catching about 4 here.

Orlando/Cav-under 196.

[vassman86]

Dexter,

You are absolutely right: the Raptors are going to be a big play tomorrow. This is mostly due to the Bucks' star, Redd's, absence from the line-up as they find a way to replace his scoring and on-court presence. To make matters worse for the ailing Bucks, Ridnour will likely miss a few games due to a concussion sustained against the Pacers. Bogut is also questionable.
This is a game that the Raptors should absolutely dominate as they're finally playing in form. Calderon's recent return is also beneficial.

[vassman86]

CK's SP's for today pending on the filters before game-time of course:


Charleston -9.5 1st Half 7:00 pm EST
Santa Clara -10 1st Half 10:00 pm EST

Just thought I'd fill in anyone that doesn't know about it.

[vassman86]

I won't be betting on any games today. I'll take a break and wait it out until tomorrow when there is more variety (11 games for Friday).

Orlando plays well at home. After a huge game against the champs to prove they weren't invincible, they brought that "ok, we are that good" mentality to play the Heat and got stunned in front of the Miami crowd as a 5 point road fave, losing all of the first 3 quarters. Surely Stan Van Gundy was not pleased and after 3 days off they were able to come back home, get their heads back in focus and rout the Pacers 135-115. Next up, the Cavs, and they're comin' to OUR house. The Cavs have not been playing the rock solid brand of basketball we had been accustomed to seeing them play ever since they lost Delonte West (clearly an underrated piece to the puzzle out there in Cleveland). They slowed down over the course of their recent road trip and returned home to an unspectacular performance against the Kings. It was a perfect example of where they at right now, because Lebron and Mo both had massive games (Lebron triple double, Williams 43, 11 and 8) and they still only beat the Kings by 7 at home. Without Delonte or Z, they only have 2 consistent players on their team. They are running into the Magic at the wrong time and will pay the price. Love the fact that this is a national TV game, therefore drawing much more public betting and Cavs backers.

Orlando -4

Where your guys heads at?

Couldnt agree more.... Im backing the Magic big tonight

[Dexter]

wow, was thinking of playing the lakers tomorrow off of a su loss - but they are only 2-6 ats off a loss this year.

dont forget about the cavs though - if they lose my money tonight, i will get it back tomorrow with them. we all know the numbers with that squad off a su loss.

[Devon]

Mafia, checkout the system post on page three over at Ck's thread on the ncaab board today. It's a refined innovation of ck's secret plays. Hits a very high percentage of times.

Anyway, I crunched the numbers and Cleveland St 1h is a play, if gt fails martingale it.

Just thought I should let the others know who missed it.

[jtnguyen79]

thanks vassman for ck sp play man i hate filtering thru all the boards just trying to find it

my leans today

Orlando and under
San Antonio and Under

best of luck to you Sam

[SamsNCharge99]

i still don't know..I like how Orlando line is moving 1/2 point or point. Maybe by the end it could be 5 or 5.5 and I'll tease the cavs to +15...along w/ 3 NCAA.

As for Suns..Spurs game...I have to go w/ the Suns here. Small play 100%..at most for me will be $55 to win $50 which is small play. Both teams playing well, Suns a little better in my opinion. Teams have split their first 2 meeting this year...road team winning both, But Spurs won by 1 point on Xmas on last second 3. Tonight, Suns by 1.5 or 2, I'll take them for a small wager.

[LUNT101]

Locked in: Orlando -3.5 (half pt buy)

Everyone's raving about Cav's defense but they are giving up an avg of 103 ppg in their last 5. Also, Mickael Pietrus quietly scored 27 in his first game back since missing 12 games their last time out.

[LUNT101]

Locked in: Spurs ML +105

Was leaning this way ever since I saw the line, and I think this line from an azcentral.com article says exactly how I feel about the Suns:

"The Suns' issues can be traced to one source: a roster of offensive players - an offensive hybrid that is not quite a floor model. It's a starting lineup of former go-to players asked to share the ball and play consistent defense."

Their inconsistency will lead to their downfall in this game between 2 teams with a lot of recent history. The Spurs will be ready.

Hi bettors
Hope you're well....so let's to take NBA betting action tonights...
You watch all the games and pre-game shows, you play in a Fantasy league, you know your stuff - you would think that your knowledge of the teams, the stats, and the injury reports would put you in a sweet position to clean up, Not true,There is a better way...
Ok, Let's to consider next picks:
Orlando Magic -4½ -200 -(Orlando is averaging 101.6 points a contest - eighth most in the league - and following a pair of losses that saw the team scored 80 and 97 points, respectively, it got back on track Tuesday with a 135-111 drubbing of the Indiana Pacers)
San Antonio Spurs +2 +110-(San Antonio will have to contain O'Neal if it plans on earning
its sixth win in seven games.)
P.s. Good luck if you betting...

Orlando have the upper hand in the H2Hs and went 3-1 against Cleveland last year, but an interesting note is if Cleveland win then coach Mike Brown will become the Eastern Conferences head coach for the 2009 All Star game, which gives them another incentive.
