NBA ~ 2009/2010 Regular Season Thread

[Dexter]

Dex...you normally give out the line projection. How accurate are you compare to the actual line when they first came out? Do you have your own formula, or you digging last year's line?

i do come very close - no formula, nor looking at last years line. i just watch the nba a lot, and have been for 20 years. i basically do it to get a feel for if i should jump on a game early or wait.

New Orleans +6.5
NO/Phoenix u218
OKC +110

man phx3 - i am loving ariza on my fantasy team!

[BrandonLaz]

That under could have been one of the worst picks I ever made

[mebaran]

Yeah..but seriously though, 69 points in a quarter? That's mind boggling how good of scorers they are...

[Dexter]

1st qtrs are always high scoring

[Dexter]

damn - completely shocked whats going on in phx

[BrandonLaz]

At least it makes for some entertaining tv. To bad neither of these teams understand the words defense.

hornets showing no heart at all

[cgars1]

ok anyone hedging the 2h NO/PHX...at least I'm hoping phx can get the over for me because NOH isn't helping!!! i even sprinkled on the NOH ML...damn they didn't come to play at all and i thought phx might be looking ahead to the lake show...so whats the call boys

[BrandonLaz]

It is only a 17 point game in the 1st half. It is still a decent spot to cover thanks to the fact that NO should come out strong in the 2nd half while Phoenix will have lost a lot of that intensity.

[Dexter]

im not giving up hope - cut it to 12 by the half and we're ok...

I dont think you can hedge this game unless you took PHX, might try and double up on hornets 2h just gonna leave it alone

[cgars1]

i agree at this point i will ride out NOH...its the NBA...they can go on a run and if that happens that means big points 2h...thinking over 2h...let's see the number

[Dexter]

ok, its over..lol

[Dexter]

phx plays lakers tomm

4th game in 5 nights for phx

Do not mess with an over when the total has already surpassed, its under yes I said it under or no play.

[cgars1]

107

[MarkHammond]

4th game in 5 nights for phx

i know i like the lakers

[texhooper]

took over 53.5 3rd quarter. phoenix will try to put this one on ice to have a garbage time 4th so they can rest the key players for tomorrow, being a 4th in 5 at the lakers. whether or not they succeed, i believe it will translate into a number of points in the 3rd either way.

[shoebox]

107

Books want you to believe theres a dead bolt lock on the over sitting at 107. Its under or no play, the way this games going I would sit back and hope for a NO comeback.

[texhooper]

yeah, shoe, i think the half goes under, but it will go under as a result of the 4th. but i'm not going to go there in this game, so 3rd q over it is for me.

nice call on sac last night tex

[Plu$Money]

it seems to me halftime total lines are always based off the original total regardless of how the first half turned out. i would lean towards the over

[shoebox]

Imagine how much more accomplished the suns would be if they didn't break up the nucleus style that D Antoni brought, suns are playing outta there mind right now. Holy smokes

[texhooper]

nice call on sac last night tex

thanks man, been a rough start, last night was finally a decent night for me.

[MarkHammond]

u like a rested heat tomm vs the cavs?

[shoebox]

If any of you guys( my guys know who they are) in Vegas this weekend PM me so we can meet up, I promise you'll have a good time everything's on me.

[shoebox]

no movement on the NO offense, wow these guys are acting like there not even playing

[BrandonLaz]

Well since my NO play is probably toast I need the scoring to stay down it would be nice if NO just held the Suns to nothing the rest of the game and somehow got a backdoor cover, but I would be happy if I get a miracle hit on either play right now.

[texhooper]

didn't take long for my retarded 3rd quarter bet to go down the toilet. shoulda taken the under for the half, oh well.

[cgars1]

man they r bad
