jallen247 · 03-02-10, 10:06 AM

Hey LB, just joined SBR but I've been following your plays for a couple weeks now. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing!

JR007 · 03-02-10, 10:17 AM

Pistons home of a long road trip play against ????

JR007 · 03-02-10, 10:35 AM

These teams have combined to go Under the total each of the last seven times they've met in the Motor City and 11 of the last 14 overall. Detroit is the 2nd lowest scoring team in the league, averaging only 92.4 points per game. Boston is #1 in defense, yielding only 94.2 PPG. The Celtics have gone Over in four straight games, so they're due to go Under here.

blanc0 · 03-02-10, 10:42 AM

im also on the under but i dont rly blieve in what hapened 3years ago has any influence on today

JR007 · 03-02-10, 10:44 AM

Just "fishin" aroun for trends .... the cuse might be in for a letdown tonight against St. John's lookahead Louisville

JR007 · 03-02-10, 10:49 AM

What has MIA done recently to warrant that kind of spread? That number is absurd IMHO.

NOREGRETS · 03-02-10, 11:11 AM

Miami is coming off of a big loss to Orlando and G.S. is coming off of a win to Detroit. It is at home for Miami, big number to cover, especially because I am a big dog fan, but I think that they pull it off.

This is what everybody is thinking, and that my friend, is why Miami will do it.

NOREGRETS · 03-02-10, 11:14 AM

Nice to see that we are on the same wavelength, LB.

Well, 6 -- I highly doubt Steph Curry was doing shots and licking salt off the neck of some South Beach hooker last night.

Kind of like they wanted us to take DAL yesterday?

Sometimes, you have to go with your gut. I'm not saying the Warriors win tonight, but they won't get blown out IMHO.

It's a tough game to choose. You see LB has a point and you have a point. Let's look.. GS has been struggling offensively lately at home against teams that won't play the kind of defense that Miami will play. Some of those game were they got over 100 pts they still shot poorly, but the pace of the game allowed them to get 100 pts. I doubt GS will dictate the pace of this game tonite. GS is starting to wear down from all of the minutes they have played. That is why there team is starting to struggle offensively at home over the last couple of games. GS imo won't get out of the 80's tonite scoring. They will also get crushed on the boards as well. There lack of depth will kill them late as they won't have the energy to fight back like they do so many times at home. Me, personally I got the under. I think that is a safer play on Miami. As Miami most likely wil struggle offensively as well the same as they have been. I don't see this game breaking 200 pts.

I normally like taking double digit dogs...but no confident in either of the Bay Area teams playing today

mp5070 · 03-02-10, 12:06 PM

If I have to choose among the dd road dogs, I'll take the Kings over the Warriors or the Pacers for tonight...

MidgetTossers · 03-02-10, 12:27 PM

Well said Lyon...I couldn't agree more...like Miami and the under myself...state is in shambles right now and just don't have enough healthy bodies....curry cannot do it all by himself...Miami should win by 15-20 points in my opinion

Thank you sir

It's easy to think and scheme. The real work comes in getting your emplyees to perform right for you

Also take a look at the under 211 in Lakers game. We are getting value here as the public has pushed this total 4.5 higher. Yes, we can all understand why the total is this high. At the same time I am not looking for the Lakers to play Indiana's up and down the court game. Lakers played a very hard fought game on Sunday that was very physical. I look for the Lakers in order to control this game they will take advantage of there strength down low were they will dominate Indiana. This will also slow the game down. Kobe, has been off lately with his jumper as he is still playing injured with the ankle and broken finger.. Kobe, will still take his jumpers tonite, but I think he will slow tempo and feed the post. This will take time off clock and get Lakers high quality shots that don't lead to long rebounds that would start Indiana's break. Also, Indiana will get nothing offensively in the paint and will be settling for 1 and done jumpers agaisnt the Lakers. I just don't see Indiana scoring enough points tonite to take this total over by living on jump shots against some very good LA perimiter defenders. LA has the best defense in NBA based on points per possesions. Denver only got 85 points against them and they are way better offensively. LA won't play as hard against Indiana and will alow a few more points, but I see it as a Lakers 105 Indiana 94 victory tonite.

dmac2132 · 03-02-10, 01:00 PM

Pick of the day..... CELTICS -4.5 any thoughts?

fsugolf · 03-02-10, 01:06 PM
