Charlotte Bobcats -1

[lyon804]

11-1? Wow, nice. With you on 3/4 at the top (i hate betting BOS games), and already have Dal -11 booked b/c im a homer degen bettor. Gl tonight.

Don't get me wrong the Mavs are a hell of a team and much more talented than Nets for sure, but they still don't cover big spreads at home.. Betting with Dallas in these spots is like flushing your money dowm the toliet.. With that said I am still scared to bet agaisnt them because I know what they are capable of here.

I'm not completely sold on the Sixers lying down tonight. I still think that Charlotte will win the game, but the more I look at the total, the more I feel like this game goes over. Like you say, low effort in front of the home crowd is bad for the franchise. The Sixers are much more prone to 2H slowdowns after a faster paced 1H, as are the Bobcats.

I'm playing the 1H O94 and feel really good about it.

[mkasad23]

shit makes no sense how the hell are bobcats only favored by a point against the sixers and the line hasnt budged with like 100 percent on them

[mkasad23]

why are bobcats only favored by a point??

[williams22]

why are bobcats only favored by a point??

Only 60% on Charlotte and the line has moved from a Pk to -2 in some places.

[mkasad23]

why would anyone back the sixers over the bobcats this one should be very easy

Very nice thread with informative and reasonable information, I wish I would of read this thread in its entirety before the CHA game started.

On Wednesday the Bobcats will square off against the Sixers on the road. The Bobcats have had an up and down season, but are winners of the 3 straight at home against the Lakers, Golden State, and Miami. The knock on the Bobcats are they are a very bad road team. This is an interesting matchup because the Sixers in all reality are a much worse home team than Bobcats are a road team. The Bobcats are actually a respectable 16-15 ATS this year on the road while the Sixers are a bank bursting 8-21 ATS at home. With all these known factors in mind I find it interesting that bookmakers have installed Charlotte the slight road chalk favorite. Charlotte has not been the favorite on the road in the past to Philly. I think we should take this as a clue and bet accordingly.


The Sixers by all accounts have had a very dissapointing and miserable season. They were even desperate enough to try to steal Allen Iverson away from his drinking and gambling to dress out for some home games and sell some tickets. Well, AI proved he was no longer the answer and still wasn't interested in "practicing"... Practice... "we talking about practice".. "I'm supposed to be the franchise player and we talkin bout practice" Come on man.. "We talkin bout practice"

The Sixers seem to have a new focus now. Tonites game with the Indiana Pacers was very telling as they had a real chance at winning that game. The Sixers were down by 2 at the half and played there starters only sparingly in the 3rdQ and at the begining of the 4thQ they sent one starter out on the floor down single digits..Some would say the coach was trying to rest his players, but it remained a single digit margin for much of the 4thQ and the Sixers never had more than 2 starters on the floor at any one time. The Sixers with a record of 23-40 have long mailed this season in and now are focused on there "lottery pick" slotting for next season. They will start the same players tommorow, but late in the game when it comes crunch time they will not be in the game in my opinion.

The Charlotte Bobcats on the other hand seem interested in winning at the moment as they are in the playoff hunt at the moment. They are playing with some momentum and confidence. Tommorow, is the kind of game the Bobcats must win if they have any aspirations of being a playoff team at all.


My Pick. Take the Bobcats-1



as always.. "tail at your own risk"

great analysis/play.

i read your stat earlier about the ref in bos/memphis and told my buddy at work about it. i think he hit memphis hard cause of that. thx - think i have a free starbucks waiting for me in the am

[kobefanatic]

nice call lyon

[paco]

Like the Under 190.5 here Lyon. Droughts are common with these teams. Both on b2b also. Whatcya think? I think this game stays in the mid 80's

Pay me bitch!

[shoebox]

nice call lyon

[AzNDooM]

Great call. Glad i thought the same thing. Way to WIN Lyon and great write up.

[williams22]

Well, we both had strong opinions on Charlotte and Memphis and they both cash easily. We should try to do this more often

[PorkyPig]

Damn, I had Charlotte -1.5 at +110 at my local, didn't have the balls to take it

Too bad for you.

[ShogunRua]

Your analysis was spot on with the CHA game Lyon. Also MIA and MEM are winners. Nuggets looking good also, great job. Here's your 5 points as I promised.

[lyon804]

Right now I have booked

Cha-1
Denver -7.5
Memphis +5
Miami -10

Leans

New Orleans +7.5-+8
Nets +11


The last two days in the NBA I am 11-1 with my only loss was Philly last nite. I think that would have won also had they played there players. I am probably fade material at this point, because law of averages say so, but I have to bet my stuff.

Thanks for all the kind words. I hope everybody had a good nite. My card with all my picks are above. It's funny after all the thinking and scheming in the end in order to have the kind of nite I had tonite you really need some luck.. As 2 of those wins if you notice were by a combined 1.5 points. Thanks again and maybe we can get them again tommorow. I wish this run would last 16-2 over the last 3 days As they say whtaever goes up must come down, but I am enjoying it for now.


Thanks for the points ShogunRua

[lakerboy]

Lyon you are on fire my man.

[lyon804]

Thanks LB. I wish it would continue then I could quit my day job.
