SmackdownV · 04-20-09, 04:35 PM

Smackdown is a miserable 4-3 so far.

Damn Orlando and Miami!

Tonight I have Boston -8.5 (Pierce and Allen can't have 2 off nights in a row can they)????

San Antonio -6.5 (Don't count the old guys out at home)...(The Spurs are 7-1 ATS when avenging a home loss versus any given opponent this season).

GL TO ALL!

secret007 · 04-20-09, 04:49 PM

chicago +8.5

As a celtic fans, i think celtics will win but chicago will cover.. This is going to be a close game without Garnett and his defensive presence...

oBaMa_MaNiA · 04-20-09, 04:57 PM

Bad start to the playoff, compared to the reg season!

Anyway, today I've lined up

Boston -8, SA Antonio -6

RJS · 04-20-09, 05:24 PM

Dallas +6.5

Kyleben · 04-20-09, 05:33 PM

dal +6.5 my only play for 4/20

secret007 · 04-20-09, 05:34 PM

dallas would do the job ..

so dallas and chicago today

jmathes · 04-20-09, 08:01 PM

pissed off i forgot to post my play earlier on chicago + the points. oh well here is my play for the later game:

san antonio -6

i know you won't allow quarter plays but everyone know san antonio -1.5 for the 1st quarter is a very solid play. revenge at home after a straight up loss. easy money!

King_Bookie · 04-21-09, 06:48 AM

Pick for tomorrow:

CLE -11
HOU +5.5
LAL -11.5 (mother fukkin heavy)

jmathes · 04-21-09, 08:18 AM

wish we could do first halves or quarters because i have 3 very very solid locks. the over in detroit game is very solid and i see the lakers going under even though they have gone over in the past 7 matchups. cleveland and lakers 1st half are very strong. alot of sharps are taking detroit +11 so be careful here. i also like portland -1.5 for the first quarter for the revenge factor after the home loss. lets see what would happen here fellas.

houston +6
lakers -11.5

King_Bookie · 04-21-09, 08:26 AM

Well technically we can, but there's too many players right now. Lets wait after the end of this week(and eliminate others if they did badly) and do quarter and halves after that. After all, we're assured of a win by betting SA 1Q

And I noticed the public is on Cleveland right now (74% IIRC), and I always bet when the public is >75% on one side. But I really can't deny Cleveland's power at home.

And we're on the same grounds as Houston and Lakers. Cheers.

jmathes · 04-21-09, 08:46 AM

i definitely agreed with you. the cavs at home are a the unstoppable but just had a strange feeling about this. the lakers are questionable too. last game they had a 22 point lead at halftime and barely covered the spread. phil jackson always thinks ahead and rests his players during a big lead. coaches don't give two shits that we have money riding here. if deron williams would have made that last 3 pointer with 3 seconds left the spread would have been ruined so thats why i dont like full games.

dennisback · 04-21-09, 09:02 AM

houston +5.5

lakers -11.5

RJS · 04-21-09, 05:51 PM

"And if I may after this week I may eliminate those who hit <40% of their plays to limit the players to a winning bracket."

Not quite sure I understand this. Why would those who did poorly in 1 week be eliminated. Did I miss something in the rules? Not trying to be a pain just not seeing the reasoning.

SmackdownV · 04-21-09, 06:34 PM

Plays for tonight:

Detroit +11.5 (They are going to play with pride tonight).
Houston +6 (Too much talent....NO ONE can stop Yao).
Utah +11.5 (Harpring should be back tonight...that's a cover for ya)...

BOL TO ALL!

oBaMa_MaNiA · 04-21-09, 09:08 PM

Late but these games haven't started yet.

Lakers -11
Blazers -5.5

jmathes · 04-22-09, 08:09 AM

the lakers game last night is why i don't like to bet full games because they always ease up 2nd half. same thing with the cavs as well barely covering last night and for some people it was a push. im also liking orlando first quarter but wouldnt take them -10.5 for the game. too unpredicatable. good luck today fellas.

denver -5.5

atlanta -5

dennisback · 04-22-09, 08:20 AM

ill take these obvious picks:

76ers +10.5
denver -5.5
atlanta -5

King_Bookie · 04-22-09, 10:34 AM

I'll edit the record later:

ORL -10

Ok we're going to battle these games out also. I don't believe in Miami's bench. If Beasley doesn't score for them off the bench, Wade has no pressure taken off of him to score. And you already know my rant on the Orlando Softies. Gl, bro.

oBaMa_MaNiA · 04-22-09, 11:46 AM

Miami +5
Orlando -10

I'm struggling! lol
