San Antonio will be ready to play. This game is no chicken dinner, and it goes under as well

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 12:16 AM

I like that SA/CONN under as well. SA defense shouldn't be affected too much with Hammon out. SA will score less than 65 points as they just aren't a good offensive team to begin with. I think that total will be in the 130 low range.

CK are u still playing Sparks -2 HEAVY then? Thanks.

**rick_213** · 06-21-09, 02:48 AM

CK, what is your parlay play for Sunday?? I am very curious because Friday you had the Atlanta and the Connecticut parlay and that won hit. I also included the Detroit pick so I lost my parlay. If you don't mind sharing that would be much appreciated!!

I was also curious about the Connecticut -10 line. I did some research and it seems like a whole lot of players are out for San Antonio. So I will prob. add them in my parlay with Indiana. Lisa Leslie hasn't been contributing that much so I think the Sparks should still hold up. So I'm leaning strongly towards a Connecticut, Indiana, and Sparks moneyline parlay. Or Connecticut and Indiana moneyline parlay.

without hammon for another game. that looks good.

2 plays for tomorrow folks:

PLAY #1:
line: sea@pho 170
pick: 170 over

The Mercury are the female version of the Phoenix Suns. They are playing with great confidence lately with their run and gun style. The Storm on the other hand have been alternating wins and losses lately. They are indeed a defensive-minded team but playing in the house of the Mercury, I expect them to get caught up with the breakneck pace of Phoenix. LJax and Bird are not to be outdone by Taurasi and Pondexter. The over is 4-1 for the Storm in their last 5 playing against winning teams. While the over is 5-1 for the Mercury in last 6 home games. This will be another entertaining game for us to enjoy.

PLAY #2:
line: sac@la 145.5
pick: 145.5 under

This matchup is a total opposite of the above ballgame. Both clubs are in a deadlock at the bottom of the standings in the league. Both teams know that the games are few and the season can slip out of their hands easily. The Sparks will still be without Parker and might be without Leslie as well. The Monarchs on the other hand are not really efficient offensively. The under is 5-1 in their last 6 meetings in LA. Expect a scoring struggle from both clubs as they step up their defensive intensity tomorrow.

yo CK! happy birthday to the missus my friend! i was pleasantly surprised when i found out that her birthday is the same day as my sister's birthday! quite amazing this thing called "fate"! God Bless!

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 09:03 AM

Storm are up to +2 and the the O/U went down to 169.5. Sun back up to -10.

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 09:09 AM

That line has held pretty steady for the Storm! I think this is going to be the mother load play of the mth. I'm getting hesitant of the Sparks now with so many people on them! I'm also leaning Detroit on that home and home game with Indiana!That is really all that I see for today with Seattle really going to get my attention today!

**xxdjstriderxx** · 06-21-09, 09:18 AM

any word on the official plays yet boys

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 09:32 AM

Betty Lennox left the game in the 2nd half the other day. DeLisha Milton-Jones asked Coach Michael Cooper to sit out the Fever game because the 10-year veteran felt fatigue catching up to her without much time to rest. Lisa Leslie has a sore thumb and is probable. I just feel that there may be too many unknowns with this Sparks team right now.

I know, Sexymit. The Sparks have everyone on their tails right now. But the Seattle play is etched in stone, and I don't think it will fly. Let's replace the Sparks play with the Liberty+4.5. It's a well constructed pick, as the Dreamare coming off of the big win over the Mystics, and don't know how to handle the kind of success that comes with beating a team that just took down the Champs. The Liberty run the best half court set plays in the WNBA hands down, and Atlanta doesn't havethe discipline to handle what they will be doing.

There's 56% of bettors on Atlanta and only 44% on the Liberty. Yet the Liberty are 11-4 ats in their last 15 road games, and Atlanta is 4-10 ats in their last 14 home games. What does that tell you?

One team is a perrenial playoff team getting points, and the other is a team that got lucky with synergy (Mystics win)and is getting too much credit because of it. I capped this game out to New York-3.5, so all of the advantages are there for us to run this play and make it a Project Play to go along with the Seattle pick. However, since we are placing two units on the Storm later, we have to make our money measure up equally and pound the Liberty for two units as well. Trust me on this one, we don't need any extra points. The Liberty will demolish this team with continual wide open layups. Just trust me on this one bro. I can see it from a mile away.

Let's leave the Sparks alone then and go with these two. If we hit both that's 4 units and that would put us well over our target of getting to 5 dimes this weekend. The Liberty are an early game too! Here's what I see as a good plan for us today:

Seattle+2 (-110) 2 units $550.00 to win $500 3:00pm est
Liberty+4.5 (-110) 2 units $550.00 to win $500 8:00pm est

It's a short card, but these are premium picks though and should be paid for, lol! I think that we got the two best wagers on the board with these. Let me know within the next few minutes and we'll make them Project Plays.

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 09:46 AM

Until I see that it is apparent that Mahorn knows how to coach, we should throw Detroit in the same boat with the Sparks. When a guy doesn't know how to coach, it can really f*ck up some money. I am not willing to place money on the Shock right now. We've got players coming and going, suspended or injured, coaches quitting in the beginning of the season, all kinds of shit....Mahorn has to show me something!

**oda11** · 06-21-09, 09:50 AM

CK, with all the known, what's your opinions on Sparks 1H -2.5 and game -2 right now? Would you recommend just completely lay them off? Thanks!

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 09:59 AM

I have the Storm+3 at my book. I say that we just keep waiting on that one and make our play late as We may even be able to get to 4 or more with a hook buy.The public is pounding the Mercury as if it were free chicken dinner night, so the play should be made close to 7:00pm est to ensure quality for our number. I have already played the Liberty+4.5 personally. I played it as a Suburb Pick too on a seperate book at +7.5 (-170 with a 3 point buy)HEAVY

Lay off of them until further notice. There's a ton of people on them today and we can't play along with the public.

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 10:02 AM

Storm up to +2.5 and Liberty just went back up to +4.5 on 5dimes.

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 10:07 AM

NBATV will air the SA game at 3, Shock at 6, Storm at 8, and Sparks at 9:30.

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 10:11 AM

Sounds good to me! I really really love the Seattle play! Was looking at the Liberty play as well, but with Atlanta playing so well I would be a little weary of that play. Especially since Liberty beat San Antonio pretty bad for just their 1st win of the season! I'm going to wait a little longer to grab Seatte as with so many people of Phoenix is has no choice but to go up. But it will peek and come back down again so you have to be ready to pull the trigger on them when you think it tops out! Cause the sharps won't let that number get to high!

Thanks for the reply! I played them when the line was at -4 yesterday and bought it down to -2 as a medium wager. I guess I will have to root for them tonight!

As for NY and Seattle, I am using Bookmaker and can buy up to 2 points, do you think I should buy the points for both wagers? As in general to the Project Plays, should we buy points like you do on your HEAVY Suburb picks? Please clarify if you could.

Thank you and good luck!

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 10:21 AM

Very well then with that:

Project Play

Liberty+4.5 $550.00 to win $500.00 2 units

Storm+2 $550.00 to win $500.00 2 units

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 10:23 AM

CK... take a look at the total in the Atlanta/Liberty game! They played 3 times last yr, with the total on all the games in the mid 150's. They avg. last yr the 3 games 157.6 pts per game. The total this yr opened up 12 pts under what they averaged last yr, and of course they are pounding up the over! Let me know what you think on this one, I'm kinda liking the under!

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 10:24 AM

As stated, we are waiting for Seattle to play them later on in the afternoon. Trust me. Atlanta won't know how to handle the success of their win. The Liberty are a much better coached team, and they hae tremendous half court sets which get them wide openlayup opportunities. Atlanta's horrid defense will get them in trouble in this one.

CK's Suburb Play

Liberty+7.5 (-170) 3 point buy HEAVY

Yeah I looked at the under too, but what bothered me about that is Atlanta is giving up too many wide open shots and at the same time they are shooting the three ball a little too much this year, which leads to fast breaks the other way for te opposing team. I suggest that you throw it on as a Ghetto Play, and I will follow suit. I definitely like the side better than the total on this one. New York always goes under on the road, tho! If you list it as a Ghetto Play then I will play it along with you. I don't think it's strong enought to make it a Project Play as we haven't been studying it enough to feature it. With such a big following we have to make sure everything is tailored. I think yuo're right on the nail with this Seattle thing tho. Let's just ride with these two picks since we are going 2 units apiece. We're putting a dime up into space already hoping it will come back.

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 10:34 AM

Well I warned you about the Seattle game! The big boys just pounded the fvck out of that line and took it off the board and dropped it down to almost a pk in a matter of minutes. I knew they wouldn't let that line get to high!

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 10:36 AM

Well I played the under in that game on my WNBA contest along with the Liberty and of course Seattle! I'm 4-1 going into today in that contest! GL with our plays today and hope everyone makes some money!

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 10:38 AM

I still have Seattle+2 at mine, so I guess that I had better jump on it quickly!

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 10:38 AM

WNBA lines are at it again. Liberty are now at +3 from +4.5 (nice job getting in that project play at +4.5) and the Storm PK (heavy RLM).

Same goes to Liberty lol, it went to +3 and +3.5 on some sites.

**sweetjones55** · 06-21-09, 10:39 AM

Storm just jumped right back to +1. I feel that there is always that 30 minute span every day that the WNBA lines just go crazy then go right back to normal. The Liberty just went back up to from +4.5 to +3 to +4 in 2 minutes.

**MarkHammond** · 06-21-09, 10:39 AM

Liberty got pounded down too

**cocknocker** · 06-21-09, 10:40 AM

I got it! I made my play at +2, and then when I went back to check it out again the line went down to a PK also

**MarkHammond** · 06-21-09, 10:41 AM

lines goin back up now lol

**SexyMit** · 06-21-09, 10:42 AM

I just hit mine at 2.5, and then was going back to play the Liberty and then everything went crazy.. LOL

**oda11** · 06-21-09, 10:46 AM

Why didn't I jump on Seattle while it was at +3??? LOL, got too greedy. At the rate this is going, would you guys consider Seattle ML?
