Prop Bets of the Day

[The_Kid]

Dwight Howard OVER 36.5 Points + Rebounds

Last game was a joke. He fouled out and his teammates didn't bother to give him any touches. He took 6 shots the whole night and was in foul trouble the whole night. That won't happen again. I'll take this prop again, especially at + odds.

76ers/Magic UNDER 14.5 3 PT FG Made

The 76ers don't shoot the long ball very well and the Magic haven't shot well all series. Though you may think they're due for a game where they shoot the lights out, I'm not buying it. The 76ers are making it difficult for Lewis and Turkoglu and making the other players beat them. I'll gladly take this prop yet again.

id take howard under! he is on road and refs will give him more fouls so foul trouble? yes ! and game 1 they let howard play , 31pts, 16rebs and they lose! game 2 they give other shooters the ball and howard only 6 shots, and they win! they will stick to gameplay of g2 and howard less points.

You do have a point and I may be a sucker for this prop but the Magic should be up 2-0 in the series. I know they lost in Game 1 with him dominating but they should have never choked up that huge lead. Van Gundy is a horrible coach and there is no way any team should blow an 18 point lead at home in the playoffs.

76ers/Magic UNDER 14.5 3 PT FG Made

2-0 night after the other night's debacle. Onto tomorrow.

[dennisback]

[t-bone]

Thanks, t-bone. Just trying to help others out around here as well.

The thing about this game is that no one else was doing much either. His other teammates were pretty much non-existent to say the least.

[whatisit]

Any plays for tonight? Thinking of taking over for Deron's stats, he had a horrible game 3..looking for him to bounce back today.

[The_Kid]

Paul Millsap -2.5 Points + Rebounds vs Andrew Bynum

This is probably the squarest play by just looking at stats but I've watched all three games of this series and Bynum cannot stay out of foul trouble. Williams ability to get into the paint opens up so many more options for himself and his teammates and other defenders on the Lakers are forced to commit to either Williams or their guy. That puts Bynum out of position most of the time and that is why he is getting into foul trouble quickly. Looking at the stats, Bynum has only totaled 21 points and 9 rebounds in three games. On the other hand, Millsap has become a force off the bench for the Jazz this series. In Game 3, he totaled 7 points but he did most of his work on the glass on his way to grabbing 14 rebounds. In the first two games, he combined for 28 points and 15 rebounds. Bynum's knee has also been affecting him and I think that's also a part of the reason for his below average play this series. Phil Jackson even mentioned that he might stick Lamar Odom in the starting lineup because of Bynum's inability to stay on the floor for extended periods of time. With that being said, I think Bynum will be playing limited minutes again and will have to play very efficient in order get 10 points and 6-7 rebounds. Sloan has increased Millsap's minutes from game to game and with the weak interior defense of the Lakers, I expect him to be a force on the boards and get easy buckets.

[dennisback]

Bynum is not even starting, easy win i believe

[The_Kid]

Okur is slated to start and play for the Jazz tonight. That means he'll be bringing Bynum away from the basket. I hope Sloan doesn't overexert Okur and play him a lot. He needs to bring in Millsap to spell Okur. Bynum shouldn't get too many minutes because there is no way he'll be guarding Okur beyond the three point line.

[The_Kid]

Paul Millsap -2.5 Points + Rebounds vs Andrew Bynum

It wasn't pretty but I'll take it. Bynum barely saw the floor tonight.

See you tomorrow, gentlemen.

[Mac4Lyfe]

Nice job

76ers/Magic UNDER 13.5 3 PT FG Made

I don't think I need to explain this one much. I'll take this one again.

Lebron James OVER 16 Assists + Rebounds

I know this is a bit high but I can easily see Lebron James totaling a triple double as the Cavs go for the sweep. In the first three games, he has totaled 22 assists and 32 rebounds. Game 1 was the only game he failed to record 16+ assists and rebounds. In Game 2, he notched a total of 19 assists and rebounds while in Game 3, he totaled a combined 20 assists and rebounds. Lebron should know what he needs to do to close this series out and I expect a superstar performance from #23 today.

[The_Kid]

Lebron James OVER 16 Assists + Rebounds

I'm hoping that the 76ers and Magic don't decide to make it rain.

76ers/Magic UNDER 13.5 3 PT FG Made

If that one hits, I may look at some props for the nightcap.

[The_Kid]

Luis Scola OVER 23.5 Points + Rebounds

Scola has played well in all three games thus far, averaging almost 17 points and about 7 rebounds. He has reached this total in two of the three games played with the exception being Game 2 in which they lost. With the Blazers focusing on Yao so much, this gives Scola wide open looks from the perimeter and the opportunity to be the recipient of passes out of double teams. Yao has stated he is content with being a role player in this series and allowing other players on his team to score. I know it's basically around his average for the series but I see Yao being the center of attention yet again. This will give Scola many open looks to put up points on the board. I don't have to worry about his rebounding ability because he always works hard on the glass. I can see a stat line of at least 15-18 points and 9-10 rebounds.

[The_Kid]

You're a bitch, Hedo Turkoglu. Go to the basket, jackass. Who would shoot a 3 ball with someone in his face? Van Gundy didn't draw that up. Philly also shot lights out. 8-18 from the 3 PT line? What a joke.

[EaglesPhan36]

Tough break on the 3 pointer one man. Scola one seems solid so long as he starts making shots!

[whatisit]

Wow, you lost on a last second 3......that sucks man

[The_Kid]

Luis Scola OVER 23.5 Points + Rebounds

Made up for Turkoglu's last second heave.

[Shortstop]

Great work Kid!

[The_Kid]

Thanks, Shortstop.

Heat/Hawks OVER 13.5 3 PT FG Made

I'm going to ride the hot shooting of the Heat now. Wade will be drawing attention as usual but his supporting cast is knocking down shots and that is huge for Miami. Their confidence is definitely sky high after taking down the Hawks two games in a row. With the home crowd behind the Heat again, I expect the Cook, Jones, Chalmers, and Wade to shoot the ball well tonight. I don't expect the Hawks to put up only 78 points either. Despite that total, the Hawks still managed to hit 5 3PT FG while the Heat have tallied 24 3 PT FGs in the last two games combined. While I don't expect the Heat to reach double digits in 3 PT FGs again, I can see both teams combining for OVER this total.

Kid check out this bad beat NBA Prop I did yesterday.

Paul Pierce UNDER 32.5 points + rebounds + assists.

After 1st qtr, I think he had one rebound?

With 30 secs left in double OT, he hits a layup to send it over. Sad face.

That's brutal. The Celtics/Bulls game should have never gone into 2 OT had Pierce made one more FT. I feel for you, Bread. That was kind of like watching Hedo Turkoglu drain a 3 with 1 second left in regulation.

[Bread]

Yep, what most often CAN NOT HAPPEN, more often than not, DOES.

Good luck tonight!

[DaProfessor23]

my prop for today is joe johnson +9 1/2 points vs Wade [ i think wade will get played hard on D and he will have to give up ball alot} GL to everyone else

[csimmalavong]

yea joeseph better step up today or the season is over.

i like josh smith -4 points against beasley, but i hate betting these.

[oBaMa_MaNiA]

How many assists do you reckon Kobe will get?

[The_Kid]

Bummer, that Heat/Hawks game was too low scoring for that prop to hit. Onto tomorrow.

How many assists do you reckon Kobe will get?

Sorry, Obama. Just got back from the Laker game. Looks like Kobe definitely tried scoring more than getting his teammates involved though.

my prop for today is joe johnson +9 1/2 points vs Wade [ i think wade will get played hard on D and he will have to give up ball alot} GL to everyone else

Nice call, Professor. It was ugly but a win is a win.

[DaProfessor23]

TY kid. Did your props hit?

[The_Kid]

TY kid. Did your props hit?

Nope, only played the one I listed. There was not enough offense in the Heat/Hawks game to produce 14 3PT FGs. Was looking at a bunch of others that did win but that's after the fact. Next time, I might just play everything I like. I just don't want to go too crazy.

[The_Kid]

Paul Pierce OVER 23.5 Points

The Celtics are in a must-win situation. Big time players step up in big time games. Pierce must carry this Celtics team on his back and will them to victory. I expect a huge performance from Pierce today, especially after watching him lay a complete dud in Chicago in Game 4.

Magic/76ers UNDER 14 3 PT FG Made

I will take this prop bet yet again. This time, Hedo Turkoglu won't ruin it for me and the 76ers WILL NOT shoot 8-18 from beyond the arc again. Lewis and Turkoglu are still struggling with their outside shot and the Magic as a team isn't shooting particularly well from the perimeter. I'm glad the number is at 14 because both teams will have to make at least 7 from downtown to push. I like my chances with this one.

Dwight Howard OVER 37 Points + Rebounds

I expect a huge performance from Superman today with the Magic being in a must-win situation as the favorite in this series. Big time players step up in big time games. I can see Howard going for 20/20 today.

Josh Howard -7.5 Points vs Roger Mason

Josh Howard has been the X factor in this series thus far and he has displayed why he is so important to this Dallas team. Mason was benched in favor of Bruce Bowen in Game 4 but that didn't do much. Howard still managed to drop 28 points. Meanwhile, Mason didn't even score and played limited minutes. We may see more of the same today if Pops decides to go with defense over offense.

Tony Parker OVER 33.5 Points + Assists

With a change in venue and the Spurs almost down for the count, I expect Parker to have another big game. Dallas hasn't shown me anything thus far that makes think they can stop him. Dampier's words have had no effect on Parker either because he is still constantly able to get into the teeth of the Dallas defense.

Might have more later depending on how these work out. Good luck tonight.
