    Back out of my GSW -3 bet while I can or ride it out?

    Put a large amount on this last night, was not aware that Iggy was injured, I already know Bogut is suspended. Looking for some thoughts.

    Don't understand all the hoopla about GS right now. They have lost 3 in a row and only hit 100 once, and 2 of those loss' were on the road, and now Bogut is suspended. You folks must know more than me....

    Well I am not feeling too confident about this play right now but from a spot angle, GSW are overdue tonight.

    And the Hornets just beat 3 shit teams at home in a row. What's the fuss about on the other side, the game is basically PK now.

    they just got blown out by the spurs so will be looking for a bounce back game. just don't see GSW putting up enough numbers to win

    This looks just like Houston's game yesterday - low spread and public all over it, the thing is I don't believe this will happen 2 nights in a row, namely Warriors covering -2. Line opened at -3, public was all over that spread (around 65%) and it haven't really dropped, but spread went down by a whole point, but this is not the factor I solely base my prediction on, it just supports data, which my model came up with. I don't want to talk you out of your initial pick, since I can be terribly wrong with this one, but I just can not find any data, which I could relate to this particular situation at this moment (despite some useless overall trends) and which could make me think other than taking Pelicans with those points.

    p.s. I actually like the fact that Spurs wiped the floor with Pelicans yesterday...and Pelicans know that they played some garbage ball yesterday, so mentally I think they are prepared

    Appreciate the insight, the game looks to be headed to PK or worse for me, so can't really back out. GSW definitely capable of covering with the players out.

    I would think you knew who you were betting against...last time I checked they are called the Pelicans, and the Charlotte team is changing their name back to the "hornets" next season. That being said, you posed a question on an open forum, no need to get upset...BOL with your selection and hope GS wins for you. ..

    No man, I was not upset, maybe it came across like that. Don't take this forum that seriously, only concerned with winning. BOL to you as well.

    Of course, man, I never said that they are not capable to cover, but, even though I tried, I really was not able to come up with a reason not to back Pelicans at this spot, they are really dominant in game aspects Warriors are currently lacking due to Iguodala and Bogut absence. Nevertheless, there is a chance that all my reasoning will go down the drain and I'll have to swallow my words.

    I know the Warriors have the better perimeter shooters, even with the two good guys out and they are fairly well rested as opposed to the Pelicans. That alone should give you enough confidence to stay the course, and besides, most of the so called "expert handicappers" are siding with Warriors. I actually like them myself but will not be playing this one. I need to see how they do first, and then maybe get back on them. BOL. Talk to you soon...

    I'm sure you do mother hubbard...no argument from me...just soaking up the Intel...I just got mopped last night, now down to 27-8...went 1-3 Monday...that's what I get for getting greedy and making 4 plays instead of my customary 1 or possibly 2. But thanks for asking...

    I did mention the Warriors are well rested, and the Pelicans/Hornets played last night, but if you are familiar with this site you will find more people with huge ego's like Hubbard , than people wanting to discuss intelligent information about pending games. See, it's all about them. So sometimes for laughs you have to fire a few broadsides to rattle them back to reality, sad but true...

    Ya,its great to be mentally prepared. But its a whole nother thing to be ass out. Their legs will probably give out late 3rd or early-mid 4th quarter.

    I would guess you are right about that. Hard to believe pro athlete's can't play two nights in a row without exhausting themselves...But then again we have folks on here betting against teams that don't exist aka the "HORNETS" and old mother Hubbard challenging me to a grudge match "capping" LOL. What a crew this is sometimes...

    I would take the over. With curry back I think they're offense will shine. I think their offense will struggle without bogie and iffy, give up lots of points

    I am not wimping out mother Hubbard. I tell you what, you tell me what website to go to or give your e-mail address, and I will reciprocate, and I will gladly accept your challenge. By the way, I don't see you posting your record so far this NBA season, nor do I see it on this site. So please enlighten us all as to how well you are doing, Mr. or Mrs. genius. Consider the match on !!!!

    Pelicans not looking so hot, surprised on how well GS is playing defensively right now. Pelicans might get it together second half, well see.
