Don Logan and Laker_Crazy are on opposite sides in OKC/Chic game. Logan has been cold but is a great handicapper, Laker_crazy has been hot but mainly with under/over. I ask of you, oh mighty LB, how do you lean on this one?

LB not playing today. but i'm taking the thunder though.Comment -
don't tail don logan. look for some of his more recent threads....they are gone. when he loses they are removed by request of the mods. he makes terrible plays.
One thread was "take team x plus 4 points...." when his team lost by 5 he then posts, "good thing for me I bet +5.5"....i called him out and he got all pissy. i told him if he's listing a thread with a specific spread, it ruins all credibility if you lose and claim you had a better number but didnt think it was important to tell anyone.
guy is a joke.Comment -
so what do u tihnk?? u leaning on bulls or thunderComment -
I like under in that game for sure - my thoughtComment -
Oklahoma has been on the same winning streak as the Bulls, IMO theres is no statistic out there that will sway the majority into picking one side or the other.. it's all speculation as this matchup is honestly 50/50
I'd go with oklahoma and the +2.5 @ bodog but thats because I think bulls winning streak ends at 4Comment -
My take, for what it's worth:
Chicago -2.5
Why?
Chicago has held 7 of their last 8 opponents to under 42% FG. In those 7 games, they are 6-1.
Since November 27th, Oklahoma City has been held under 45% FG a total of 7 times. In those games, they are 1-6.
In Chicago's last 9 games, they have held 8 opponents under 100 points.
Since November 27th, Oklahoma City is 2-7 in games where they score under 100.
Chicago is winning because they're playing great defense, and OKC struggles in low scoring games. Obviously basketball is not a science, but good defense is more reliable than good offense, so I'll roll with Chicago and hope they keep this one low.
The under might be worth a look, haven't even checked what it is yet, though.Comment -
Hey guys. This is a very interesting matchup. The bulls opened at -1.5 and as the opening line they were the winning play big time. The line has moved a full point in their favor with the public betting action fairly even. Right now because of the way i play it isnt a play. One thing to note is that chicago has turned the corner a bit and people think OKC is great but both of these teams like to shoot a lot of jump shots. The under is the play in this game as we stand now. LEts wait a few hours and see how the public action shapes up. CheersComment -
LB will surely make his picks near tipoff. This one is a tough call. The bulls are playing better ball and I think their confidence is growing.Comment -
Since 1973...j/k he has help me win some $$ so to me thats great. FYI, I do not wager much on any games. $200 is the biggest bet I would make, most games are $50 just to give me something to watch. This is not a career for me, I just love the rush of it, the money is just nice to win instead of lose.Comment -

I got bulls last night at 1.5. I think they will easily cover. Don Logan is a scrub. But hey a broken clock is correct twice a dayComment -
Don logan's picks have been as solid as anyone I've seen in the NBA forum. That being said, it is dumb to just tail plays. Either cap the games yourself or don't gamble.
Also, for what it's worth, Brakon (AKA 2-9 in his last 11 and far under .500 overall) is chasing his recent losses with 25 units on Chicago.Comment -
Yes sir I believe those who know the NBA best can cap games at over a 55% long-term. I know if I could keep myself to 1 or 2 plays at most per day I could be in the 55-60% range. Unfortunately my love of action has hurt me in the past. I don't really cap by trends or line movements but instead analyze actual matchups between teams.Comment -
Bulls tonight boys. After watching the Thunder @ Bucks a few days ago (and losing $250 on them) I will not play them for a while. They played uninspired and proved that Durant is their only threat. Bulls heavy tonight boysComment -
Interesting game, the Bulls are lot stronger with Tyrus Thomas back in the lineup. I do see Chicago in a potential letdown spot after defeating Orlando. They are have won also won against the spread in 4 straight games, how many games can we possibly back chicago for?
OKC is a team that very rarely lays down whose coming off a loss and has a premier player. Didn't their "uninspired" play take Milwaukee to overtime the other night?Comment -
My one sentence there isn't even english ... ***They have covered ATS 4 straight ***Comment -
Please did you watch that game? They went up 10 to open the third quarter and two minutes later the Bucks had the lead back. Watching that game after they blew that lead, I knew they had NO chance to win, you could just tell. My bet was dead midway thru the 3rd quarter I could feel it. Granted Michael Redd went apeshit and was hitting every shot, but the Thunders winning streak is done and they won't win tonight either.
Bulls have had some bad games, but they will take care of business tonightComment -
Milwaukee has been a tough opponent this year, Thunder played them tough, and as you said took a couple ridiculous shots from Redd to close that game out, he was taking long 2's with hands in the face - Home team is going to win with that stuff going. That tip dunk from Westbrook was pretty sick.Comment -
yeah that was a sick dunk. I think we see a similar performance tonight, back and forth until the end and the home team will close it out.Comment -
Should be a very good game, these teams match up very well.Comment
