    i have no idea why the suns are only getting 3pts, blazers are suppose to one of the top teams in the west and suns are playing like shit. blazers are better at every position. im pretty sure its a trap for everyone that likes portland. suns will win this game somehow. lets get it

    how is this a trap? portland arent the lakers or the heat or boston. there a GREAT team with alot 2 prove. theres absolutely no reason behind backing the suns. portland is a better team in every way possable. missmatches all over the floor.

    Exactly. The line should be waaay higher than +3 but it isn't. That's telling you something. Go Suns!

    i'll be a square...

    Portland wins tonight

    i'm playing Portland -1 for First Half

    their energy should continue from last nights win... maybe fade towards the end of the game.

    I think Suns can surprise here. Blazers had a tough game yesterday, so they may take it too easy today ... and Suns are hungry to prove their season is not to be written off yet. All in all, the line seems to be correct to me, so I'm not going to bet on this game.

    seems how.

    Denver opened as 4.5 favorites over New Orleans on the road. And shot up to 5.5 at one point.

    What seems correct about Portland opening up as 2 point favorites on the road in phx. my book currently shows 2.5, opened at just 2 after portland waxed who vegas has as western conference favorites (lakers had best odds to win the conf).. and of course, portland waxed the next western conf favorite on the road in the game before in okc.

    Nevermind the ML disparity between the 2 games of the respective teams

    Blazers very deep team. One of the best last season in second game on a back to back. This shouldn't be a problem against a very bad Suns team. Look for the Blazers to cover in this one.

    Yeah there is definitely something fishy about the POR/PHX line. I know a lot about NBA, but I'm sure Vegas has a one up on me. For this to be this low is a bit weird. I feel like they are tempting everyone to take POR. I'm going to wait to see if I can get a better line on the Suns, doubt it will happen but I know the line won't go down anymore.

    The reason its so low is because they know if it was Portland -4.5 they would get raped with the amount of sharp money hitting Suns at +4.5. Line is set for a reason and hoping to keep sharps away from this game. over 80% of public on Portland but heavy money must be on the Suns if the line isnt changing. If the line gets to -4.5 or -5, then Sun backers are in trouble.

    Now all the Portland backers are starting to figure out why the line was so low at POR -2.

    yup


    i don't know why people get so scared to bet on poor teams. They ALL gotta win sometime, and usually vegas tells you when they're going to win beforehand.

    I mean, it's easy as cake. They told you when detroit would win their 2 wins. They SCREAMED it ,, yet people were still terrified to bet on them and lost money going the other way.

    People out there missing big opportunities by ignoring the poor teams and only betting on the Heat's, bulls, thunder's, and lakers of the world

    in fact, betting on poor teams, knowing when to, are the easiest [plays

    Completely agree. People get too caught up with the teams and get suckered into a trap game. I mean somewhere around 80% of the bets were on Portland, yet the line never moved. That alone tells you enough. Same with the Knicks/Wizards game.

    and same with the detroit games in their 2 wins.. and many others

    90% pumping indiana and the line doesn't move from -2.5 ?? LMAO ! That game was the same white washing as this one tonight. Vegas knew indiana wouldn't show up, and they played half ass like a bunch of punks. Couldn't even handle the ball. It was so evident in the first 5 minutes of the game that detroit would win.

    it's not like it doesn't slap people in the face. It's all so obvious when you just watch it unfold.. just like tonight. It's right there on everyone's screen.

    Vegas totally robbed people with the showcase of Portland on national tv last night dismantling the lakers in front of millions of people. then setting a ridiculous line of -2 for this game and barely moving it

    Have you looked at tomorrow's card PR9? Noticed that over 95% of the bets are on Chicago's side tomorrow? Just for that reason makes me want to take Hawks + whatever tomorrow.

    all depends on the line movement.

    I bet magic an hour before the game tonight. Then for the 20 minutes before the start, the line kept moving begging you to take orlando, just like san antonio last night vs dallas - begging you to take dallas.. and like miami last night, line moving begging you to take atlanta in that one.

    of course as soon as i saw that movement i bet on chicago hedging my original orlando bet.

    I also took a peek at the celtics halftime spread, and they were begging you to take boston. But i knew better and took indy at +5.5 the moment i saw the bait

    Yeah that line movement was crazy on that ORL/CHI game, I just stayed away from it. I saw a lot of people on SBR were on Orlando. Yo PR, do you cap NFL? If you do, curious what your plays are for this playoff weekend.

    not into NFL much this year. May bet once or twice out of every 2 weeks for kicks.

    The NBA condensed season is WAY too much fun with so many games every night ;-)
