I have quite the opposite feeling. I think the Lakers are in a great spot tomorrow heading into Detroit with some new-found confidence. For what it's worth, Kobe owns the Pistons...I just think they're in line for some kind of streak. Lakers worth 3-5 units...

We don't have opposite feelings at all. I agree 100% with what you said and that's why I want to take LA.

I'm just scared to fade a team that's dropped so many in a row thinking they're "due", which sounds really silly but yeah.

I see, and you do make a good point. The "due" factor would be my only fear though. Match-up wise, I say the Lakers have the advantage. Offense will not be a problem for them, they just need to show some pride on the defensive end; Detroit may help a bit on that end...shooting barely 41% on the field in their home court. I know Lakers have extremely shitty defense, so I guess it's a battle between a shitty defense and a shitty offense.

Do you have any idea what's happening tomorrow in that Lakers/Pistons game?

I want to take LA but for some reason I think the Pistons are "due". Do you see that at all as something to be scared of or are they just too much of a mess now?

I'd rather light my money on fire than bet that game, Seto.

Same difference, actually.

Too much OKC love. I'm not playing the Pelicans but this is Durant's first game back. I doubt the team will be in mid season form.

I kind of like New Orleans here actually.

Also lean Sacramento and Denver.

NO +4 (3.45U to win 3)

I feel like OKC might eek out a 1 or 2 point win. In other words, or feels like a down to the wire type game.

I'm more worried about what Davis could do on the inside.

Adams hasn't been playing that great of defense lately.

Westbrook won't duplicate his performance against the lowly Knicks.

Dogshit doesn't even begin to describe the Pistons and Pitt.

Those 2 teams really made a pact with the devil last season.

I took Wolves too. Bad spot for Houston imo coming off win vs Grizz and have Suns tomorrow. Greek sportsbook agrees with us, about 25c lower on ML than everywhere else.

Want to take the Pacers tonight because the line makes zero sense, but really don't like that they've gone from a dog to a fave.

I am 100 with you. BUT I'm still taking them. I feel better knowing they went DOG -- FAV instead of FAV--DOG. You know what I mean? It makes it better play that we already iked indy +1 and now its -1 because someone else knows the same.

Pinnacle opened -1.5. Not sure what book you are going by.

Yes the line was dumb.

No coincidences · 12-09-14, 03:27 PM

Also sort of like the Knicks, Mavs and Bucks.

Seto · 12-09-14, 03:29 PM

We lean the same way on most games.

Good luck tonight.

BOL, Seto.

cice12 · 12-09-14, 04:59 PM

i think other way : oklahoma wont let fade possible wins at home against b level teams as they have to get back on a winning track, heat offense is to slow against suns in may opinion, spurs even without parker could easily beat jazz.agree on knicks .anyway GL..
i took cavs, portland over 101, suns parlay.other spurs and mavs over.

No coincidences · 12-09-14, 05:49 PM

on heat plus 5 minus 115, knicks plus 7 minus 115, bucks plus 10 to win 3u each

mavs plus 3 minus 105 and jazz plus 9 minus 105 to win 2u each

gl tonight

Lincoln Scofield · 12-09-14, 10:26 PM

Just curious, what'd you cap knicks/pels line at tonight?

PorkChop · 12-09-14, 10:29 PM

How the hell do I lay off the Kings getting points

No coincidences · 12-10-14, 06:43 PM

NY +10.5 -108 (5.4U to win 5)
