GL, 44 Mag. As much as I don't like the way, Sac Town has been playing lately, they should get it done in this game. Like the Boston ML too, they're on fire right now. Just wondering...you don't fancy Clips and Raptors tonight?

RavensFan2k3 · 03-13-15, 10:07 AM

Good luck buddy, I like Boston and Sac aswell

Shark AA, thanks for checking in. I haven't gotten to the rest of the games yet, just wanted to get the early ones for now. But to be honest, LAC are not on my screen and I still feel Toronto is too volatile. Leans left are : OKC : GS : Portland : Phoenix + points and some assorted totals. Not sure Atlanta seems to give a shit lately, they must figure #1 seed in the East is a lock, but GS could take over the best record in the NBA. What are you leaning towards tonight ???

Concerning DAL-LAC game, I'm really confused, why they favour Dallas to win. Anyways, if I would bet, it would be Toronto -5.5. If we take a look, who Miami beat, since Bosh has been ruled out for the rest of the season, you find Knicks, Sacramento, Nets, Lakers, Suns, Philadelphia and Orlando. They lost to Atlanta, who didn't have Teague, Horford and Carroll, they lost to Pelicans, who didn't have Anderson and Davis, Boston, Wizards (although this one was close). I think that speaks for itself.
I'd take Portland -6, although they're -8.5 favorites. They've been playing really solid lately and Pistons have been really bad in the last 10 games.

Well the first one is simple, Dallas is home and rested, I hate them since they got Rondo, he sucks. LOL. Toronto seems logical,but they too are schizoid, who shows up. the guys that score 105 or the guys that lose to crummy teams, look at their last 20 or so games. Portland they are home but they don't exactly burn the world up scoring points, but if they can't handle Detroit at this time of year, with Houston losing, they have a problem. LOL. I am sure you will do fine tonight. I hope there are no drastic last minute "sit downs" tonight. I checked all the pertinent sights and saw nothing that hasn't been reported. BOL.

Toronto actually had a tough schedule in the last 10 games. 8 of them were road games, so I'm not surprised it's like that. The biggest problem in Miami team is, that they can go really cold at some point in the game and then...you know what happens... They're too inconsistent during the game.

Fact is, they have lost 16 straight to Miami and 7 at their house. In fact they haven't beaten them in over 5 years!!!! Granted you may think their schedule was a tough stretch, but in the last ten games the only team they could beat was Philly!!! That is no the mark on an elite team, like they want to be considered. you have to win some of those games. They will be in the playoffs, and unless they are playing the Knicks or Philly, they won't last long. I am not making a case that Miami wins tonight, but with Whiteside back and if everybody is healthy, Miami + points is a viable option, to some not to me. I am not touching this, but I guess if I was I would lean towards Toronto ML,slightly. I think it is best to let this game slide and wait til the Rap's start showing you something. Best guess my friend. BOL in whatever you decide.

LOL. NO don't blame him, it is Friday and I usually go "long" on Friday. But, it is not my day, last Friday 5-4.

SharkAA · 03-13-15, 01:27 PM

Curry, Thompson, Bogut and Iguodala all out due to rest. Denver +6.5 looks really good right now.

I went to pla Denver like 10 minutes ago, went to the bathroom cane back and they are now favs

SharpAngles · 03-13-15, 01:54 PM

Had Denver teased +10.5 in my bet window when that news came out and the book instantly locked me out

Been busy today but but had a chance to go over the first half of the card and you're looking nice IMO mag

When I heard the rumor, I just threw the bet in, didn't have time to opt out, so at least I hedged a little in case GS loses. Man, I hate when they do that. I mentioned earlier, I checked all the sights and no word of that. Well, looks like I lose a little either way.

That sucks, man... I guess someone is forced to bet 10 mins before the game, since regular season is coming to an end and some teams are resting their players...

I usually make bets right before tip off. Honestly hate making plays early in the day, but sometimes it works out. Like Yesterday, I had Wizards early, albiet they still covered the new spread, but you get my drift.

My buddy from Chicago called late morning and heard the rumor, so when I started hearing again I grabbed what I could, either way I am losing something. Oh well, NBA.

Hope so Mac. GS threw me a curveball, that's for sure. I'm sure I am not the only one. LOL.

Do you believe this??

Valanciunas out tonight for the Raptors. His wife had a baby.

They lost 4 in a row and are dropping in the standings and he's with his wife who had the baby yesterday.

Good for him, bad for the team. He will have his family forever, Good Lord willing. He will only have a few years in the NBA. Tough choice here as a man??? The right thing to do ???? Is it their first child??? Only kidding guys. To me, Family First.

See, what I mean, 44 Mag? Miami is just not playing well and they will have to kiss the Playoffs goodbye.
