    Rolling with the 3 home dogs

    I'm going to roll with the three home dogs today:

    HOU +3
    UTA +3.5
    SAC +3.5

    All three teams are going up against heavy public favorites. There is nothing I like more than taking home dogs, especially when the public is pounding the opposite side.

    73% on LAL and the line has moved from -3 to -2.5
    91% on OKC and the line hasn't moved all day
    74% on MEM and the line moved from -3.5 to -3

    Looks like one of those days where the books don't mind taking some chances. All those lines are very telling IMO.

    Good luck everyone.

    Yeah I'm going to make a play on HOU 1Q or 1H. LAL has been crap early in games, and they typically make a push in the 2nd half.

    LAL @ NOH: Hornets up by 8 after 1Q, up 14 at Halftime
    LAL @ MEM: Grizzlies up by 8 after 1Q, up 1 at Halftime
    LAL @ MIN: TWolves up 12 after 1Q, up 9 at Halftime
    LAL @ DET: Pistons up by 4 at Halftime

    I gotta say I like Utah with Jefferson out. I am a firm believe of other players stepping up 10 fold in the absence of one of their stars. If bettingwizard was posting he would take Utah too.

    Yeah Jefferson is in, and Bell is out. Josh Howard is also done for the season. Two really solid perimeter defenders. If there is one thing you need against the Thunder, it is perimeter defenders.

    I'm not too worried about it, CJ Miles, Gordon Hayward, and Alec Burks will step up.

    BTW, am I the only one who thinks Alec Burks is going to be a stud in like 2-3 years. He is really raw now, but damn that kid has some game.

    Nice plays. If I could just have the guts to bet against my team when I felt like they were going to lose I would be rich. As it is, I say I don't like them and then I just watch them lose and make no money off it.

    Yeah great night so far. Just need the Kings to come through for the clean sweep.

    And damn those boys in Houston play with some heart, that was one of the best comebacks I've seen this year.

    Best of all, Lakers hit the road again tomorrow in Dallas. More money to be made.

    Dallas is a team I might start riding. I think they have gotten their shit together.

    As for my Thunder, I'm worried about the playoffs. We could be out in the second round. We blew our load early while the Spurs and Mavs were coasting.

    I would definitely take their experience over OKC in the playoffs. We're still too young. It's not quite our time yet. I think the Bulls, Heat, Spurs, and Mavericks are all better teams.

    As a Nuggets fan, I can definitely appreciate what OKC brings to the table. I think you guys will be fine, and I full expect for OKC to be in the Western Conference Finals. They are still young and will lay eggs every now and again.

    Don't be afraid. I've made alot betting against the Heat when the spots are right. I already knew PHX was up for tonight's game, then when I saw the heat dragging their feet in pregame warmups looking bored, and the fact that the Heat just had a revenge win against Orlando and barely covered, I laid 3u on PHX +10.5

    No one knows their team better than a fan. When everyone and the world bet on the Heat vs the Bulls on SBR last week w/out Rose, I think i was the only one who knew the Heat were going to lose in that particular spot on that night, and posted non stop about it. It was a great spot for the bulls and just a terrible spot for the Heat on that particular night.

    No one knows the daily ebbs and flows of a team than a fan. That's why part of me tries to be a fan of every team on any given night by following their shit in local news and local beats. Gives you a good read for situational betting

    it has nothing to do with tonight, but rather over the past couple of months.

    impressive resume I have to admit ..

    a high majority of the time his "reasonings" for the outcome hold true (whatever reasoning or angles that might be). Which is difficult to do in this condensed season

    He also nailed Indiana for an easy cover, and his reasonings he stated last night were 100% correct

    The lines said it all. 90% on OKC yet the line never moved and the Jazz were being juiced up. And line moving in the opposite direction with the public pounding LAL and MEM.

    I didn't post it here, but I hopped on the Bucks as well. Once I saw LB on it for 10X and that the line opened at -5 and moved to -3.5 was all I needed to make a play on MIL.

    Yea, I've been lurking a long time....have learned who to pay attention to, who to fade, and who to ignore altogether. But, I just finally decided it was time to register, and I started off saying Thanks to Speedy!
