    Tues NBA early leans & discussions

    Heavy leans: in a nutshell
    NJ+5 (outright win wouldn't surprise me, hoping to get 5.5-6 by tip off)
    SA+5.5 (too many pts not to grab with such a good team)
    SA/PHX Over203.5 (don't see anything slowing down here)

    Lets get input going.

    I originally expected a Spurs sweep, but I have rethought after watching Game 1 - notably the officiating, where the Spurs were the more aggressive team but still did not get to the line nearly as often in the 2H, but also the fact that SAS have no answer for Barbosa, who must get more PT as this series goes on - and I believe the home team will win the next five games, starting with a double digit Suns win in Game 2.
    I like the Nets in the other game as well.

    Like the Nets, like the Spurs, undecided on the total.

    I sure hope the part I underlined does not happen Razz.

    I'd guess Cavs -4.5, Suns -5.5.

    I would think NJ gets to at least 5.5 & SA drops to 5. Sure am hoping people start laying on CLEV.

    That SA/PHX total is already on the move up.

    I like the Spurs/Suns under tomorrow. I'm going to wait it out before placing my bet though, as it looks like the number will continue to grow.

    Was thinking Cavs -5, Suns -6. But who knows what my delusional book will deal me.

    I can't see the Suns closing as a 6 point fav. It will go down to 4.5/5 before tipoff.

    The Cavs is the only way I could play this game myself guys, but I gotta pass on it. However, I do like that under in that Spurs/Suns game.

    Spurs +5 for me. Think they win outright but just in case I'm taking the points.

    I was leaning towards the Nets and the Spurs but that seems too easy...

    NJ are 8-1 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Cleveland.
    SA are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Phoenix.

    Just from this trend the whole public will be on NJ and SA. Now I don't like neither of the games...
