    Yea hope so.. I threw down a little bet on them before I even knew they were out. I guess at least the line makes more sense now, certainly not as strange as I 1st thought..

      On bright side that made it feel far less trappy cause -3 seemed like stealing when I 1st saw it. Luckily I didn't unload but did put a play in on spurs..

        Someone explain to be why the Hornets opened as a fave vs. Phoenix.

        Are the Suns regressing that much this year? Haven't watched them play a whole lot.

            Also lean Charlotte -- waiting for a better number.

              The line move might be because of Dragic.

              They've lost 6 in a row... They've played decent teams and had a couple heartbreaker buzzer beaters but that's still pretty bad. Both teams are nowhere near their form of the 2nd half of last year.

                True. Still don't see why they'd be a dog at Charlotte, though.

                I'm adding 2U to Denver.

                4.2 to win 4 now.

                  Where are you seeing hem as a dog?

                  Shows me the line opened at Suns -1.5 and is at -2.5 now.

                  Also Dragic is back which would only move the line their way.

                    It opened at Char -1. I faded the line move and took the Hornets. I feel as confident about this bet as I did Kings +10 when they were leading in the 4th.

                        After playing at a snails pace the Nuggs/Rockets score 12 points in the final 49 seconds of the first quarter. Unreal.

                        I think there were like 32 points scored at he three minute mark and then they scored 22 in 3 minutes.

                        Am I the only person that constantly notices this?

                          2ot in SA. Can't believe that Gasol banked 3 to send it to ot. I have spurs -3 so hoping ot will give me the $.

                              i was really hoping for the push we should have rightfully had.. crazy gm.. now im betting nba for a second day in a row and it not even the playoffs (lol).. okc +3 for me. i could be a good nba fade, i dunno, only bet this shit on xmas and the playoffs typically..think okc is the better team here and they rolling at the moment so taking points seemed logical for my square ass..

                                    Why do you like OKC? Their recent wins have pretty much all been against crap teams. They're still unproven against good teams. I like the Under as I think both of them need to win through defense, not a shootout.

                                      okc has a track record that goes beyond this season which makes me pretty confident in believing they a good team. they cant help who has been in front of them. in every sport i like fading a team that had a win streak snapped and at end of the day ill take westbrook and durant w points vs gs all day every day..

                                          Im starting to lean towards okc too, for a lot of the reasons you mentioned. At some point GS has to pay the price for not having Bogut and Lee.

                                            Seems wrong side favored in Oakland considering up to the minute factors. Can't play cause you know I never bet against my teams.

                                            Think you're good. Not sure about 1H

                                              This is probably the beat all around team they've had.

                                              Golden State can cover here but it won't be because OKC is unproven.

                                                BigDofBA i think this is one of those games, where OKC may want to win a game playing away against a "hot" team, and just to let know others that theyare contenders too.
                                                What do you think ?? I like to "ear" your toughts about OKC.

                                                  OKC are regular season supermen
                                                  OKC are post season midget-men

                                                  Those are the only things OKC has proven

                                                    Think you're good. Not sure about 1H
                                                    Got completely bent over on that 1H line, then buried in the 2H when Durant went down.

                                                    Didn't see the game but was just looking at the box and watched the highlights. Man.

                                                        This is a prime example of bad luck. Durant has the ball on the last possesion of the 1st half and most likely ties it up to cover the 1st half instead injures himself and doesn't come back in the second half. Both bets lost in a matter of few seconds...I have no doubt in my mind that if Durant was there in the 2nd half there was no way Warriors would have won.

                                                          Didn't watch the game. Tough to beat the Warriors when they're shooting over 50%. OKC even had a 24-10 FT advantage. Impressive win.

                                                            The Warriors are a "complete" team comparable to the Spurs..


                                                            OKC is Durrant and Westbrook..

                                                            If both of them as one are not shooting lights out, the team's chances of winning, dramatically decrease..

                                                              Durant got injured on a charge, what do you mean he would have tied it up? lol he ran into Speights in the paint where Speights was out of the circle with his feet set.
