    Deng in, Rose out, Bosh out

    Latest news on the game tonight. CJ Watson will start at point for Bulls and Dennis Pittman at PF for Heat. Might lay off some of my Heat bet now

    Apparently the Heat could care less about getting home court advantage in the East. IMO home court advantage is way more important for CHI than MIA. I don't think MIA is really afraid of anyone, however I don't think the Bulls want to face NYK in round 1 and INDI in round 2. Looks like the Heat are more than okay with playing NYK and INDI.

    On Bulls +7. Nice to see Deng back and Watson been stepping up for Rose lately. No Bosh makes me even happier.

    Yeah they are saying Bosh is out due to "bumps and bruises". Have to admit that caught me by surprise. Have the Bulls +6 1/2 and again +7 , one unit each. Pittman won't scare the bulls big men.

    When the number dropped quickly to +6 , I assumed this was due to confirmation on Deng.

    Bulls will be even stronger on the boards tonight.

    Layed off Heat, last time I took them when bosh was out was against the lakers and they got pummelled, Bosh matches up well with us as well. I really thought they would chose this as their big statement game before the playoffs but they clearly couldn't care less. If my book still did props I would take Lebron, he has gone over vs us every time and it's on national tv

    bosh remains a game-time decision after missing Wednesday with what Spoelstra termed as “bumps and bruises

    GL to all on bulls, this resting of bosh changes my whole outlook on the game.

    This NBA season is starting to piss me off. Players are getting rested and being held out of games because of so-called "injuries." They should pay players per game, that way we don't see this crap. The whole Rose-Injury thing is getting old.

    Actually I think home court is more important to the Heat, since Heat have a crap road record

    But that's because they don't care about the regular season. Once they get in the playoffs they'll be able to handle the road. Heat can beat INDI and NYK in a 7 game series, not sure I can say the same about CHI against those same teams.

    I dont buy that argument that they don't care. Maybe they're just not as good as people like you think they are.

    Lebron prop at one book is over 27.5 points at -151. Trying to find a decent price on him

    If Wade was out I'd be more worried (13-1). Now that Bosh is, Chicago should dominate the boards not to mention their bench production is light years ahead of Miami.

    You're fine. We're all on the Bulls so you'll probably hit

    strange line if you ask me

    line was 6.5 (7 at DSI) and that's with Deng and without Bosh

    so what would it be without Deng and with Bosh? 9?
