      I think Miami is about to get hot. Miami and OKC are 2 teams I'm gonna be riding a lot these next couple weeks. OKC will win in Houston on Thursday then beat the Warriors back in Oklahoma the next day but we'll discuss those games later

      The Heat have had a rough stretch lately but this near 1 week stay in LA is where they find themselves. I don't see anymore "1 step forward 2 steps back" shit like we've seen so far this season from them, especially since they've finally had a prolonged stretch being healthy. There's no reason for this team not to contend in the East.

      Oh and the Lakers suck. Getting +2 here is gold. I don't care if that's what the books want me to think.

          re: MIA, are you a believer of
          A) they're SGAFL (still good after Lebron), or
          B) they're EBAFL (even better after Lebron)

            They're still good, but they're definitely not better. So I guess A but definitely not B. I'm not a huge huge LeBron guy and do sincerely believe he has a bit of a "loser" gene or at least definitely doesn't have a killer instinct, but he's still the best player in this league today.

            I do believe this is a team that still has 2 All-stars (real ones not frauds like Irving and Love), and a few other nice pieces and should be able to contend in the weaker East where no team is really proven. I mean think about it, the Raptors and Wizards are new to this whole playoff thing, the Hawks are still unproven as far as going past the second round and a lot of their players are new to the playoff landscape altogether. The Cavs are the Cavs, they basically need LeBron to carry them. The Bulls are still unproven in the playoffs as well.

            I just think they're in the mix. If they still had LeBron - they'd be 90% guaranteed to win the East.

              4 point line move on that game. I'm not gonna lie pal, I don't like Miami at all. Is the line move related to an injury?

                Seto i agree with you about OKC. I'm going to pound them Friday against GS, i'm guessing line will be something like OKC -3.5. Only thing that makes me a little scared is integrating Waiters, but shouldn't matter.

                  Laying the hammer here. This line is such a fukking joke. Miami is about to get hot.

                  Got the bet in as soon as pinny moved to 1.5, was no time to wait for reduced juice.
                  Wow -- good luck, buddy. You got a great #.

                                This game was a joke. A total joke. Even tho I had a PK on Miami, this game was a prime example that no - they're not getting hot. Lakers had the worst game of the season AND they didn't have any points for over 7 minutes (!!!), what happened? Miami won them by three.
                                108 missed shots combined.
                                LOL, just lol.

                                So what today? Wizards PK, Celtics Under 99?

                                  Getting hot does not mean scoring. It means winning games. The point is here that they found a way to win.

                                  You just said Lakers stayed close despite this and that...

                                  I can also spin it the other way and say that the Heat won, and led the game wire to wire despite Wade going down injured and Bosh shooting 4-17. Heat might win this one going away with Wade but we'll never know.

                                  The point is that they won the game and found ways even without their best player, and while the game was close down the stretch they lead it wire to wire. Now they just have to hope Wade doesn't miss more than 1 or 2 games so their rhythm doesn't get disrupted again.

                                    I wasn't on late yesterday - I actually had a random feeling Dallas would win and the Kings would cover.

                                    Now they could've easily lost their 3rd straight here, got away with one

                                        They've had 5 days off since their last game. That's one of the reasons I think they're gonna get hot - they've had time to figure this whole thing out. When I said a month ago the Bulls were about to get hot they were in the same situation having like 3 days off or something. Now I trust a guy like Thibs to figure it out more than a guy like Scott Brooks, but at the very least they've had time to get Waiters integrated better.

                                          I was originally convinced I was taking Chicago today but I'm starting to feel slightly uneasy about it for some reason. They really should win this game going away but something is bothering me here

                                            I know that.......
                                            And no - the real point is that they found a way to win against one of the worst teams in the league on their worst day of this season by 3 points.
                                            Thus they're not "getting hot". Warm against ice cold if anything.

                                            They're getting hot, I take it as in their next (let's say) 10 games they are gonna start to perform better.
                                            Well - no they aren't. I also hoped that FINALLY they have picked themselves up, but no, looks like Pelicans just had a bad day and now this game... If you still seriously think that they are "getting hot" then well - we have different opinions and that's it.
                                            Peace and love, peace and love!

                                              Thus they're not "getting hot". Warm against ice cold if anything.

                                              They're getting hot, I take it as in their next (let's say) 10 games they are gonna start to perform better.
                                              Well - no they aren't. I also hoped that FINALLY they have picked themselves up, but no, looks like Pelicans just had a bad day and now this game... If you still seriously think that they are "getting hot" then well - we have different opinions and that's it.
                                              Peace and love, peace and love!
                                              You're contradicting yourself there man. You said getting hot is playing well over their next 10 games and then you say that "no they aren't". I'd say over the last 2 games they have shown signs, and before we say that they're not getting hot we have to see what's going to happen over the next 8 games. They played their best game of the season and followed it up with a win which is all that matters.

                                              It's not much of an opinion, more of a prediction. I think that this team will improve a lot over the next days/weeks and that when we look back at when they started figuring it out we will look at this 2-0 trip to LA.

                                              Over a stretch where you're hot, 8-1, 10-2, 15-3, 20-5, whatever, there are gonna be ugly games. The point is to win them.

                                              You are making way too big a deal out of the fact that they didn't play that well today. It doesn't matter, trust me.

                                              Now obviously all this is put back into question if Wade misses time.

                                                Looking at their schedule the only game in the next 20 or so I have marked as an almost definite loss for them is the one when they come back home from their trip to play OKC. Tonight is probably a sure loss too but we'll see.

                                                Starting February they really have a pretty easy schedule.

                                                I predict 46 wins. So 29-15 over their remaining games for the guys who are into that. Perhaps a tad ambitious but we'll see. All about fukking Wade's health

                                                        Mavs ml +125 (paddy power) (risking 1x to win 1.25x)

                                                        Most guys will like Denver with the altitude back to back and overtime but my take here is Dallas played awful yesterday and still won, they can't possibly be as bad today and will be very aware they got away with one, and I expect them to give a focused effort. If they do they should be able to beat this joke of a Nuggets team. Still, the fact that this is a typical Denver spot means I can't go large.

                                                        Giving the Heat a try too. Not interested in taking the points in either game, if either is a home win I expect it to be a blowout.

                                                        Still looking at Chicago which might end up being my biggest play of the night and might end up as a no play. Gl guys.

                                                          When i saw the line moovement, do you know what i tought ??
                                                          Portland B2B vs Denver, and playing 4th game in 5 days. You know what happen right ??

                                                          Note: Dallas got lucky in OT, because Cousins fouls out, he was killing them.

They still had a chance to win though despite basically playing with 1 starter. 3 point game with a couple minutes left...
