STRIKE PRICES
(at this ML or better, team is a play both SU and ATS under 5%-OFF method)
If the Heat win this game i'll eat my hat for real.
I'm wondering whether to play the 1st half Suns -10. Last 3 times they played, the Suns led by around 20 at the half.
Where is DarkHorse to give us his insight on the Suns?
Looks like 9 games above the strike price and I'll leave at least something with each, though in order DAL, NJ, PHI, and MIL appeal most at this point.
Also like UTH ML as the Rockets have had two weak wins in a row.
And weekend steam on a favorite usually makes me fond of the other side.
I'm a little put off by DEN's last 3 losses -- two of them to PHI and NOK. All the earmarks of a club playing consitently far below par, though maybe it's more just getting their bearings again posttrade.
The really interesting factor is the Lakers OT win last night -- hard to know what to make of it when this LAX team has been given exactly one BTB this year. (Conspiracy theory, anyone?).
This line received a double shot of steam today I noticed today. However, I must agree with you both in regards to the juicy price with Denver tonight. I'll probably end up biting too if it reaches 7.
