Milwaukee -4 vs Clippers? Why and How?

Heh, that actually is funny. So i guess I fell into the trap?...now can you please tell me why Vegas is all over Clippers nuts?

**Mac4Lyfe** · 03-16-10, 11:46 PM

I hate betting Clipper games. They seem to fuk me no matter which side I'm on. My gut feeling says to hammer Bucks but that line smells fishy. I've got to think about this one. I think the line has got to move on Bucks. If the line doesn't move by tomorrow evening then the Clips are the play.

**Mac4Lyfe** · 03-16-10, 11:48 PM

Watch the line movement. If it doesn't move, play the clips or at least wash your hands of this and pay the juice. I've seen this spot to many times to know what to do here.

**rake922** · 03-16-10, 11:52 PM

Line is about right

**ShogunRua** · 03-16-10, 11:56 PM

It is definitely fishy. But the Clippers are the Clippers, and will always be the Clippers. They suck every single year and I don't see them breaking out of this 0-8 streak against a hot Milwaukee team coming to LA well rested.

**onlooker** · 03-16-10, 11:57 PM

Just a little insight on that Bucks win over the Cavs. Lebron didn't play.

**Metalhead** · 03-17-10, 12:02 AM

The Bucks should probably cover this, but they're terrible on the road. They haven't beaten a single above .500 team (record on game day) on the road the entire year. I know the Clippers are not a .500 team, but it helps explain the line.

**EBDOGGN** · 03-17-10, 12:05 AM

i dont think theres much to it. line is fishy because bucks are not an elite team so their bound to loose one soon.. im not sure were they stand in the east but i know their not ganna play lazy, esp showing on espn.. bucks comming off the best streak of wins they have had the whole season (n if you take a closer look maybe in years! lol) bottom line i dont see how you can you wrong with bucks ML..

BOL.

**DarkMage** · 03-17-10, 12:07 AM

Clippers are not that bad, decent line

**Apexas** · 03-17-10, 12:07 AM

If you REALLY like the Bucks, maybe take their 1H line and see how it shakes out. If this line is a trap, I think it's likely that the Bucks will cruise in the first half and then the Clippers will come on in the 3rd period.

Is this another 'trap'? The Clippers were supposed to beat a crappy road team in the Hornets the other night (w/out their best player Chris Paul) weren't they? They have lost 8 straight games, none of which were within 4 points. On the other hand, Milwaukee has won 6 straight against TOP TIER teams such as Utah, Cleveland, and well sorta top tier...Boston. Plus, they are more rested than the Clippers. Someone sharp please explain why this line is 4.

Btw, I couldn't help myself, threw 4x on MIL, but I want to go more. Someone please stop me from this.

The Clippers are a headache. They have zero motivation and can shop up and beat a good team at home when they want to. Baron Davis attitude encapsulates the team. This is an ESPN game, the bucks are traveling and facing an unfamiliar team and the Clips guard play (when they choose to play) will be an issue. Factor in a possible let down game and this game is a stay away for me on sides. The play here is OVER 192.

**ozrob** · 03-17-10, 12:16 AM

Baron Davis when he puts on the attitude like he has at the Clips can self destruct any team.

**tatddy** · 03-17-10, 12:17 AM

True, but he's played better recently and he can choose to show up and play to win on any given night. Especially on ESPN.

Solid post... Listen to the man. Either way, don't put too much on or against the Clipper's. They have a way of fukking everyone somehow

So what . The bucks arent at fault for that, The bucks have been doing great no need to mention that. They only lost by 3 in cleveland in the prior meeting when lebron played and covered the 9.5 spread.

**fury** · 03-17-10, 12:32 AM

I think I would play the Clippers here.

I never said they weren't playing good ball, and yes that game would of been different if Lebron played. We all know it.

Plus it was a friendly stab at him, notice the smiley.

**ParlayKing** · 03-17-10, 12:44 AM

This might be a amateur comment or observation, but the clippers are without hope of making the playoffs..in my opinion they're not gonna play as hard or with much desire with that of the bucks. Bucks ML seems like the play.

**lunchbawks** · 03-17-10, 12:47 AM

you guys see a decent line and assume it's a trap. it's called working the system, there's thousands of nba games a year, there's bound to be some perfect lines out there. ill take the bucks -4.5 any day, ill probably put 500 on it.

**alittlemoresound** · 03-17-10, 12:48 AM

this is a complete gamble..... pick a side throw a dart and cross ur fingers

**tatddy** · 03-17-10, 12:49 AM

I'm not at all implying that the Bucks will lose to the putrid Clippers tomorrow. I'm just saying there are too many variables and it's not +ev for me to lay the points on the road in this spot. I Like Bucks ML for the record but I won't be playing heavily on a side in this game. I'm just saying it's more likely there are points scored.

**onlooker** · 03-17-10, 12:51 AM

Thanks for the point lakerboy.

**TGHMak** · 03-17-10, 12:57 AM

Drew Gooden has actually looked pretty good next Kaman since the trade and Davis has been playing well for the last few games.

**Jive** · 03-17-10, 01:13 AM

The Clippers are not a bad home team. Look at their results as they have beaten some of the best teams in the league at home, and they have lost to some of the best teams at home on the last possession. Recently they have been in a slump at the Staples Center, and they lost to NO Monday on their first game back from a very long and unsuccessful road trip, which is how it usually goes (teams not doing so hot on their first game back home). Meanwhile the Bucks are on the first game of a west coast swing, coming off of a home stand where they beat Utah, Cleveland, & Boston. It is a prime letdown spot.

I'm not suggesting anyone take the Clippers; I'm just saying the line is near where it should be. Study it carefully before jumping in and making a play. I think I am probably going to pass on the game.

**BernardMadoff** · 03-17-10, 01:14 AM

Based on power ratings the line is way off, but the Clippers did already beat them there this year by 9. Im gonna go back to that game and find out why.

**QUEST001** · 03-17-10, 01:28 AM

They didn't play bucks this year yet..

They beat them by 9? I thought this was the first meeting between them.

**QUEST001** · 03-17-10, 01:31 AM

Look at clips record since the new coach took over the team...
