    Clippers +3 @ Wolves

    Not going into too much detail here. Minnesota has gotten the Clippers twice this year, both times in LA. Tonight LAC returns the favor. If the line goes to 2.5, I may take the Clips for a pretty big play. If it stays at 3, I will take them for 3-5 units.

    be careful here. wolves are a really hot team right now with derrick williams finally producing and beasley not injured anymore. if you believe in the clips that much then go ahead but i would say to tread lightly. clips played last night in a hard fought game against the rockets that went to overtime. chris paul basically ended up taking over the game for the clips since the 2 minute mark in the 4th. i dont think i saw a possession where it wasnt him shooting the ball. i just dont see the clippers on a b2b road game putting up the same effort against a hot wolves team. cp3 tends to fade in road games every now and then as i've noticed. bol on your play though if you've already made it.

    I agree with everyone on wolves. Clips are a good team but I don't like them hear

    The back to back thing isn't that big of a deal guys. This has been going on all year for every team. I think they have adjusted.

    Hard to adjust to 4 road games in 5 days. Then you throw in Minny playing well and have already beat Clips twice in Staples and Minny looks good. Minny also trying to go over .500 which will be a big thing for this team/city

    I forgot to mention that Minnesota is back home after a 4 game roadtrip. No way the t-wolves are the play tonight.

    i understand your angle, but i don't see how you can weigh your revenge+minne back home 4 game road trip angle and then everyone else's la 4 in 5 and b2b road trip and lac being bad on the road in general and minne being a hot team angle and think this is easily a 3-5 unit play. i just think you should tread a little lighter. bol buddy

    After being at -3 all day, the line finally dropped to -2.5 just moments ago. I'm really cooling off the Wolves now. Might hedge it.

    Yeah wolves really suck as home favs, but they are playing 10X better now than they have all season long.

    I'm going to stand by my Wolves -2.5 even with the line moving down. Going to just trust my gut on this one and stick it out.

    Bucks will be a play for me. You will continue to make money fading philly for the foreseeable future. The books are slowly but surely making back their money on this team.

    WOW! So glad I laid off.

    Looks like those who got both lines could be in for a nice middle.

    Fortunate to get the cover but also keep in mind the two technicals that cost LAC 2 points in the final minutes.

    They were very weak. Neither even had a specified reason on the telecast. Not even a tv clip.

    Makes you wonder, why the **** isn't a critical decision like only replayed once? I guess they're embarassed to show how corrupt the refs are in their league.

    One thing i have done this year is always take the points even if it's only 2.5 ... So many games come down to the wire that only taking a team on the ML at +120 or so is just not worth it. Take the couple points and hope they win but know that you might still get a cover or push in a tight game.

    I have come to realize that. At least spread the action or something. If it's a fav I'll start taking the ml.
