Here we go. My first pick for tomorrows 8pm game is Detroit winning the first half against Indiana. The Shock got all the momentum they need to win this. They are playing like champions and will come out hot on the court right from the beginning. They know if they want to have a chance to win the series they have to play tough starting with winning the jumpball ;-) I don't see a clear win for the Shock in this one, better said I don't know who will win this. So I am happy as far as Detroit covers the first half!
For the statistic fans: Detroit is 7-3 SU in first halfes playing Indiana at home.

1st Half Detroit -1 2 Units

just quoted so everybody can find my first play without turning the pages

They don't cover the 1st half you know what to do lol.
But I like Detroit to win the game since their at home. I expect Detroit to win the 1st and Indiana the other 2.

Yep, ST. But I don't think they won't cover the first half. Very solid bet for me! I am still leaning the under for Phoenix.... But I think I will just pass that one. Goes over anyways

RoagBettor · 09-23-09, 08:22 AM

The over/under for the Pho/LA game has dropped to 176.5. Yummy.

Domestic · 09-23-09, 01:22 PM

Are you going to touch the over roag?

RoagBettor · 09-23-09, 01:33 PM

I have the over in my 3 team/8 pt teaser. I'm going to wait and see what happens in the 1H, I might play the over in the 2H.

BL · 09-23-09, 02:05 PM

Roag.... this game intended to go under the total. And that's why I like the over now...

It's the playoffs and not the regular season. Each team will try to play it their own style and you know Phoenix will try to get this by outscoring the Sparks.
And there's another thing that makes me lean the over now:

The last game between those two opened with a total of 175. The game went way under with 159 points! And the line now opens even two points higher.
I have to think about it twice again and will maybe add a play on the over later....

RoagBettor · 09-23-09, 02:13 PM

I'll never play a Phoenix under - ever! I played my first one for the 2H of the last game and got burned.

LA can hold Phoenix to 30 pts in one quarter, and then the next quarter can be 60 pts!

BL · 09-23-09, 03:38 PM

Ok, let's do it! Phoenix is giving free winning-cake and I want to get my piece:

Phoenix@Sparks OVER 176,5 2 Units

Domestic · 09-23-09, 03:43 PM

I'm with you on this.

oda11 · 09-23-09, 03:49 PM

I like that over as well BL, also like Mercury with the points and Detroit giving points... Any opinions on those?

BL · 09-23-09, 03:57 PM

Yes, oda! My leans are Detroit and Phoenix, too. But I will stay away from those bets. Indiana knows how to win in Detroit and it could happen again. That's why I took the first half. And I like the Under in Detroit but won't pt money on it. Phoenix could win this one or at least cover the spread. Sparks are hot but this one cold get ugly. If LA wins I see this game being very close.

The good thing is: If I should loose my 1st half bet on Detroit (I don't expect that to happen) I can put few units on Detroit 2nd half.

BL · 09-23-09, 04:02 PM

Oda, as I said yesterday I like Indiana plus the points more than detroit giving points. So if you like Detroit I would take the ML.

oda11 · 09-23-09, 04:20 PM

Gotcha and good strategies with Detroit 1H and 2H. Will be checking your thread out later, good luck tonight!

Vreston · 09-23-09, 04:40 PM

Thanks for the input BL.

Phoenix has been hitting the overs steadily. I hope they get it done today!

BL · 09-23-09, 07:54 PM

First half is a looser. As I knew I already bought Detroit +4,5 !
Come on Detroit... Sucks that they lost my project play

RoagBettor · 09-23-09, 11:03 PM

I told you (again)! Glad some of you cashed the over.

SportsTerminator · 09-23-09, 11:49 PM

Some people just don't listen huh Roag.

Congrats BL!

BL · 09-24-09, 07:06 AM

1st Half Detroit -1 2 Units LOSER
Phoenix@Sparks OVER 176,5 2 Units WINNER

>>> Overall record: 42-23 +40,36 Units (64,62%)

SportsTerminator · 09-24-09, 12:42 PM

Who do you like for Friday BL. I like the two home teams. But only have confidence to put my money on Indiana. I wouldn't be surprise if LA won because they might play really well to avoid elimination. But then that makes it even perfect because I'll take Phoenix game 3. I love it! It's like you wait one game and see how it plays out and then bet on the next and so on lol.

BL · 09-24-09, 05:02 PM

Here are my plays for Friday:

Sparks@Phoenix OVER 181 2 Units

Indiana -4,5 2 Units

Phoenix should win this but I know LA will try everything to get this win. If they hit the 3s anything can happen because they are a good team. Don't expect this one to go UNDER... I don't see this game ending that high like the first but I will try my best with another OVER. Till Phoenix doesn't show they could score less in a playoff game I will take the OVER day after day....

Detroit won game1 because they fighted with the hearth of a champion. But this series won't be over after two games. Indiana wins game2 at least by 7. Maybe I'll add a play on the total later. stay tuned

stats13 · 09-24-09, 10:17 PM

i took phx -3.5 and over 181, **** it, i mean c'mon

BL · 09-25-09, 07:59 AM

I won't touch the total at Indiana. Rolling with Phoenix-Over and Indiana... Let's get the sweep

slk08 · 09-25-09, 09:02 PM

aw man i was with you on the indi -4.5 cant belive we lost by .5....

SportsTerminator · 09-26-09, 12:06 AM

BL who do you like for Sunday? I like Phoenix and... have to go with the home team Indy.

RoagBettor · 09-26-09, 12:07 AM

ST, the games are tomorrow, not Sunday.

SportsTerminator · 09-26-09, 12:16 AM

Oh wow thanks Roag. I guess they decided not to compete with the NFL. But that's rough for the players, back to back.

BL · 09-26-09, 08:37 AM

I like Phoenix Phoenix Phoenix Phoenix !!! Bounce back today with a fully loaded Pheonix bet !!

BL · 09-26-09, 08:41 AM

Sparks@Phoenix OVER 181 2 Units LOSER

Indiana -4,5 2 Units LOSER

>>> Overall record: 42-25 +36,36 Units (62,69%)

Today big bounce back with PHOENIX ! I don't care about totals or the Indiana-Game today. It's all about Phoenix! Stay tuned for a bigger play as soon as the lines are out at my bookie...

BL · 09-26-09, 09:48 AM

Get it as soon as possible !!! Phoenix will bring us big money tonight. 4 Unit play !

Phoenix -4,5 4 Units

RoagBettor · 09-26-09, 09:56 AM

Just dropped to -4 on Bookmaker. I don't know, I gotta believe LA is exhausted in this game.

BL · 09-26-09, 10:04 AM

yes, I recognized the movement but I don't care that much

Phoenix wins by at least 7.
Phoenix is one of the best if not the best bounce back team after a loss like yesterday. I don't know what the public will bet on. After yesterday could be that they're all over LA.
