    Hornets and Warriors

    These two underdogs are going to bark tonight. I like them both to cover, and I think both have a shot to win SU.

    Anyone else agree with me here. I think Orlando is in a REALLY bad spot tonight, and NO has the frontcourt to "slow down" Dwight Howard.

    The plays are GS +5 and NO +4.5, best of luck to everyone else on these plays.

    I'm also leaning on New Orleans,also the public all over OKC,and it's always good to go against them.

    BOL tonight Speedy

    I'm on NOH +4 and GS +4... public 81% on OKC -4.5 when they opened and has moved to -4 and public 82% on Magic and the line hasn't moved at all from -4.

    Good luck.

    Normally I'd say you are right with these lines not moving at all whilst the public is all over the favs. But at least one of the favs will cover, I expect even two.

    I would go with the opposite with both of these. I would just take the Orlando and OKC ML. They will both win the game

    I agree with you on NOLA but I don't see the warriors winning today.

    Hornets have been money for me this year. I don't keep track of all my picks, but I'm sure I've made more money on the Hornets than 80% of the other teams in the NBA. Made money on them the other night against OKC, as well as on the road in Houston last week and at home against the Spurs earlier this week. They have covered their last 4 games ATS. Lets hope it extends to 5-0 ATS.

    I never parlay, but I'm going to take my chances and parlay NOH ML (+135) and GS ML (+165). I think NOH wins straight up, and if that happens i'll probably hedge a bit to guarantee myself some profit.

    Gonna lay $25 to win $131

    BTW, line is dropping fast in ORL/NOH, BI has it down to ORL -3. There you go ORL backers, take the -3

    hahahahahahahahahahah i just put my small ml parlay in. and then i read this. love your style, i'm doin 9 and change to win 50, with 55 on hornets and 110 on warriors spreads

    also i am still getting new orleans +4 at Sportsbook.com. one of the best square books around imo (i only use this and 5dimes), never had a problem with a cashout either.

    Man I'm from Seattle, so you know how I feel about the NBA. I bet on the NBA to make money, not because I love it. Was a huge Sonics fan, and now that I have no team, I don't really root for any team. I bet you know who my least favorite team is..... If I had to choose a favorite team, I'd probably go with Philly or Memphis.

    damn i'm diehard warriors. couldn't imagine if that happened to me. for some reason i don't think i'd start hating em though to be honest. Philly and Memphis are sweet, on the up and up it looks like. Well coached, hard working teams. You have to like watching those types of teams play.

    and you were saying.

    Hornets up 24 with only a few minutes left in the game. Cashed Hornets, now if GS can find a way to win. Going to hedge a bit here as well.

    Hangin tough. From what I've read, officiating has been sub-par and gs has committed a few easy turnovers to points for okc.

    As long as we can keep it a game, offense is potent enough to give us a shot down the stretch.

    Turn the game on when it is 83-86 OKC. Now it is 100-86 OKC. Seems lately everytime I start watching a game on tv, everything goes wrong.

    Lately, I've been turning off the tv a lot. This past week, every time I tune in, it is like doomsday for my picks. Then once I stop watching and check the box score on espn an hour or two later, the bet is usually looking a lot better.

    I think i've backed GS in their last 3 or 4 games. Not sure why......

    Me too, LOL. But this was the first time I watched GS this season. Man, it was ugly. Chucking threes, ISOs, doesn't box out. TOs. WTF Marc Jackson
