why is new orleans garbage? because of their record after 2 weeks? Chris Paul and David West are a great 2 man combo. okafor is a decent center and they have a sharpshooter in peja.

the hornets were 49-33 last year - what makes you think they're much worse this year?

i'm only a fan of those who make me money.

**cgars1** · 11-12-09, 09:33 PM

don't you think cleveland is looking a lot more comfortable together each game, there getting better and more competitive...i'm on miami tonight pk but liking how cleveland is coming along...more like we new they would be...this will come down to the wire tonight...also had the u182 but that won't happen...shoe whatta think...took your advise last night and the under was a no brainer.

**texhooper** · 11-12-09, 09:57 PM

hey guys...went under 91 2nd half in the heat game. should be a grinder from here on out. number's too low to be true, gotta take a stab at it.

**Dexter** · 11-12-09, 10:15 PM

Fri 11/13:

(2x) mavs -11 - dallas is 5-0 su/ats the last 5 in minny winning by an avg margin of 17ppg.

(2x) magic -16 - will continue to play the magic off a su loss.

**texhooper** · 11-12-09, 10:17 PM

I just think they got no chemistry and really miss Chandler on offense, maybe now that Byron Scott got canned that will change.

**cgars1** · 11-12-09, 11:58 PM

is phx going to lose by 14 or more...2nd half is pick...cmon phx

**texhooper** · 11-13-09, 12:59 AM

i doubled down on lakers pk. i didn't post it because i thought posting was bringing me bad mojo cuz i'm doing nowhere near as bad as my posted plays would indicate. maybe i should disappear awhile and get rich real quick.

**texhooper** · 11-13-09, 01:27 AM

for tomorrow:

76ers +1.5
nets +15.5
kings +4
raptors -2.5
lakers +3

let's see how the posted plays do tomorrow. getting kinda superstitious about that these days.

playing a team off a coaching change is always a smart angle - portland is so hot though. im on the fence with that one.

the guys that made a difference are gone dex. tyson played very very well that season without any injuries. i remember having him in my fantasy team. peja was also good. both these guys are gone now. tyson gone. peja older. they didnt get any help during the offseason. IMO, they wont make the playoffs this year. let's see if bower can turn this around.

who is gone? go look at their reserves - a few pages back i gave a link of their lineup at the clippers from last year and this year. very little change on this team.

you really think that tyson chandler is that much better then okafor? neither have an offensive game and are basically going to be as good as paul makes them.

cp3 is imo one of the top 3-4 players in the league, and west is a solid forward. i think they again win 45-50 games.

peja is older - so what. hes a spot up shooter.

3 of their losses were at the spurs, lakers and celtics. not many teams win in those buildings.

**dimon** · 11-13-09, 11:22 AM

NO usually starts slow...they face a stiffer competition every year though...but like Dexter pointed they lost so far to Spurs, LA, and Boston, so way too early to say anything yet...

**dmimuravev** · 11-13-09, 03:19 PM

Dallas - Minnesota (Dallas -10.5) 1.81 Betfair
Plays one of outsiders of the championship and the command which can present different unexpected results. In such games the command with a sight on play off should take points on duty. Minnesota is one of the worst commands in protection.

Agreed. Plenty of other good games. GL tonight Dex, I was leaning ORL but thats just too many points to give up without Bass, but won't be surprised to see a cover a NJ is missing pieces as well.

**BrandonLaz** · 11-13-09, 06:44 PM

So the pick 3 games has been struggling recently and I decided to change it up with a 4 game day.

Atlanta +9
Lakers +4
Rockets -5
Hornets +3

one thing i learned last year is to never fade a team in the nba just because their star players are out. unlike baseball, this is truly a team sport and a chance for guys off the bench to step in - make a name for themselves. the lines get adjusted anyway about 2-3 points when a star player is out. more often then not last year, a team still did well even when tim duncan, chris bosh etc etc were out.

im not playing the mavs tonight b/c al jefferson is out. in fact im a little more scared with a higher line and the wolves nailing me on a backdoor cover.

bottom line - dont just fade a team b/c their star is out. not in the nba or nfl. take advantage of the artifically adjusted line.

**Dexter** · 11-13-09, 09:26 PM

magic were up 18 with the ball and 1:30 left. van gundy left the entire starting unit in, but after the nets cut to 16, the magic let the shot clock run out with a 3 second differential. nets had to give me a mini heart attack and shoot a wide open 3 at the buzzer. i'll gladly take a push with the way this game started.

**texhooper** · 11-13-09, 09:28 PM

on the other hand, i got nets +15.5 and could cry tears of blood seeing as how they were tied at the half and i lost by a hook.

**texhooper** · 11-13-09, 09:35 PM

how does rafer alston have a ****ing triple double but his team loses by 16? how the **** does that happen? i realize his team isn't that good, but my god, what else can their point guard do to make them better???

**Dexter** · 11-13-09, 10:16 PM

(2x) over nuggets 212

**Dexter** · 11-13-09, 10:22 PM

wow...dallas barely

**Dexter** · 11-13-09, 10:23 PM

tyreke evans is a stud

**Dexter** · 11-13-09, 10:54 PM

Sat 11/14:

celtics - playing boston off a straight up loss.

bobcats - (A1- Autobet) fade any team playing their 4th game in 5 nights for a min of 3x

cavs - fading the jazz on the road coming into cleveland on a back to back vs the red hot cavs. cleveland is 5-0 su/ats their last 5 home games vs the jazz winning by an avg margin of 14ppg.

(2x) bucks -7 - bucks are red hot to start the season and catch the warriors on a back to back.

**cgars1** · 11-13-09, 11:47 PM

cleveland is red hot and gotta jump on the celts after the loss...like both of these!!!
