Whats up with that line bro? Why isn't Charlotte a small fave?

Al Jefferson is out but he was already out in their last game when they pumped Detroit. I think books haven't caught up to them yet more than the line indicating anything really. I could be wrong though.

And theyve been great at home. The Heat are okay but nothing special.

What about Hawks @ Mavs??

Yeah I think Miami is a good team as well but not an elite team. They don't have enough shooting to be elite in today's NBA. Something is wrong when probably your most reliable 3 point shooter is a washed up Luol Deng.

I think Atlanta might win that. Thing is they've been off for a while. Typically when I bet teams that have been off for a while they get killed. It'll probably end up being a close game so I might just watch it and root for a Mavs win.

There's something I don't like about that Hornets game Seto. Can't quite put my finger on it.

**dmitean** · 12-09-15, 12:39 PM

I think it's a very tight card we got today. I like the Bulls tonight though. My betting philosophy is simple with them. Bet on them, playing a turnover prone team, fade them against team that don't turn over the ball...

Games in Charlotte and Dallas - like the line suggest, very hard to cap. I wouldn't fade a team that lost at home only to Cleveland, GSW and Atlanta...
Dallas... Can't really figure Hawks out. I hope they win, so that I can take Thunder tomorrow.

Good luck tonight!

**amrit** · 12-09-15, 12:55 PM

I like Charlotte as well. Line is -1 now.

**t-wizzle** · 12-09-15, 06:46 PM

Raptors +6 -105 (4x); ML +210 (1x)

Hawks ML +105 (3x)

**t-wizzle** · 12-09-15, 11:39 PM

Dallas pulling shit out of their ass.

**t-wizzle** · 12-09-15, 11:51 PM

Hawks got much better looks throughout this game. The Mavs are only in this because Deron Williams and Wes Matthews have played some decent 1-on-1 ball.

**Seto** · 12-10-15, 12:05 AM

Figured it would be a close game and Atlanta would probably win in the end. Good job on the plays tonight.

Thanks bro. I think LAC should have no issues tomorrow night in Chicago. Lean Hawks again as well.

Originally liked Hawks but gotta take OKC based on the situation here. Revenge and back to back for Atlanta. Thunder should win decisively.

Nah different guy.

**t-wizzle** · 12-10-15, 10:32 PM

Knicks +6 -110 (2x); ML +210 (0.5x)
Knicks 1H +3 -105 (1x); ML +165 (0.5x)

**t-wizzle** · 12-10-15, 10:33 PM

Knicks got embarrassed last night. Bounceback spot. Kings aren't a team worthy of laying 6 points.

**GT21Megatron** · 12-10-15, 10:42 PM

Raining air bets

Get a life. Nice Iowa state 1H bet. Only missed by about 20 points.

**t-wizzle** · 12-10-15, 11:54 PM

Knicks 2H +1.5 -110 (2x); ML +125 (1x)

Have a feeling the Knicks make this interesting.

**GT21Megatron** · 12-11-15, 12:15 AM

Knicks getting blownnnnnnnnnn the fuk out

**GT21Megatron** · 12-11-15, 12:18 AM

-9.5 PSI today.....GREAT STUFF IN HERE

**Seto** · 12-11-15, 01:02 AM

What a horrible bailout call on that Casspi drive. Unreal.

You're right. They were. Then you opened your mushy mouth and things turned around. Thanks megabitch!

Yea it was bro. Happy I won here though. Who you liking tomorrow??

**t-wizzle** · 12-11-15, 01:12 AM

Can the Bucks win in Toronto?

**goldust** · 12-11-15, 01:14 AM

If the Nuggets can, sure.

Game probably goes to OT but for that call. Who knows how that would've turned out though. Can't believe Melo missed 5 free throws.

Tomorrow's card looks tough. Haven't made any decisions as of now. Orlando is off that succesful West road trip, wouldn't be surprised to see them lay an egg but it's a tricky game cause Cleveland is the type of game teams will get up for.

Not sure what to make of the short OKC line. Looks like a trap game on paper but they're fairly hot now so it might be one of those games I shouldn't overthink too much.

So yeah, not sure where to start. Maybe I should just ride Charlotte again.

**t-wizzle** · 12-11-15, 01:25 AM

I'd love to take Orlando but I have a hard time getting past the whole road trip thing.

**t-wizzle** · 12-11-15, 01:29 AM

The Thunder smoked the Jazz a few weeks ago in Utah. Tomorrow night, OKC plays them again in Salt Lake City as part of a home and home.

I could see the Thunder taking the night off if things turn sour early on.

**Seto** · 12-11-15, 02:41 PM

Interesting game in Indy tonight. Both teams haven't been playing their best ball over the last couple games. Leaning towards taking the 5, could be another close game like the first time they met. It does worry me a bit that these Indiana/Miami matchups have typically been dominated by the home team though. You like anything there?

Right now I am leaning Miami. They've laid two eggs in a row. Lost the last game in Indy. Pacers started off down, then they were up and now they might be back down again. Let's remember they're still adjusting to the new style.

**dmitean** · 12-11-15, 04:50 PM

Whiteside is questionable for tonight. Pacers don't live in the paint, but he is huge part of Heat defense.

I like Pacers here to recover from three straight losses...

Over Over and Over... Utah played two high pace teams (Indi and Sacramento) and pace just went through the roof. Without Gobert, this team plays so much faster. If we would look at Utah's pace against Indi, Orlando and Sacramento, they would rank in Top 3 in the league! Knicks one of the slowest teams in the NBA and they dragged Utah back to their usual style. Doubt Thunder will do the same...

Kanter - Utah game is always something that both sides will be ready for. Kanter said some really nasty and uncalled for things about Utah...

Bucks +7.5 -110 (2.5x); ML +260 (0.5x)

Nuggets +1 -110 (2x)

Heat +5 -110 (3x); ML +170 (1x)

Jazz +3.5 -110 (3x); ML +140 (1.5x)
