I also like Utah, Atlanta and NJ for backup. Really like Memphis a lot, too.

Pound it up to -6 so I can take spurs +6

DeluxeLiner · 03-22-10, 03:39 PM

Think this is sort of a coinflip situation now. I would lay off of it.

Stealinhome · 03-22-10, 03:59 PM

Spurs coming off a tough road game at ATL last night -- Thunder were embarrassed by IND, and have been cover machines at home. Durantulas will be out to prove a point. I'm ice cold lately; someone talk me out of this. I normally don't like taking 5-point favorites, but I know this started around 3.5.

hey bro, I'm on the spurs for a lot of units tonight. IMO, the spurs are getting really disrespected by the books cuz they're coming of a OT and they're B2B. The Thunder have been playing horribly as of late and they are to be faded big time. Look at the spurs upcoming schedule: lakers, cavs, and celtics in the next 5 days after tonights game. The spur are currently slotted as the 7th seed with POR 0.5 games behind them and OKC 1 game ahead. Pop is a realist and he know that they'll prob win only 1 of the next 3 games after tonight. I think he does whatever he has to do tonight to win tonight cuz of this reason; B2B or not. The spurs r focused right now compared to a young OKC team that doesn't seem to be mentally ready for the playoffs; going to Jay-Z concerts the night before a game that they shouldve won by DD. I wouldn't really worry too much about line movements favoring the Thunder tonight since the public is just going to think about how old the spurs are and that they're coming off of an OT loss and playing B2B. I hope my writeup helps you make your decision.
Dropping major coin on the spurs tonight. Peace and GL.

Duncan under 18.5 points is the play

why would you think that? Who does OKC have that can stop him? Collison?

orangeheaven · 03-22-10, 04:29 PM

OKC will win this and cover. They already laid 2 games (Bobcats, Pacers). Spurs is a 40+ win team, Durant will play hard.

No, Green will probably take him over. The thing is that Duncan's b2b games are weak, he rarely goes over. I know pop's been saying that they need Duncan since Parker is out (2 allstars "out") but that just funny. Duncan played whole 4th quarter plus the OT - Blair only got 10 minutes. I cant see Duncan over 20 minutes, if he'll even step up + i see a slowdowned game from Spurs, because that the only way to beat Durant.

Rixxon · 03-22-10, 04:48 PM

I like San Antonio right now.

HoulihansTX · 03-22-10, 04:51 PM

I would wait to see if Duncan plays, B4 pulling the trigger on either side.

The OVER looks strong with Spurs defense being as lackluster as it is. If you look at their team, you will notice no size in the post, save Duncan. They really have to run up and down also, with Tony Parker out.

Spurs really fail to get stops consistently, and OKC run and guns at home. Westbrook loves the open court.

spurs +5

Trust me bro, Duncan will play. The Spurs can't afford to lose this game. They will come with everything tonight and go for the kill. I might be way off on this but the Spurs are the play tonight. I'm 10X confident.

stay away

loving okc but everyone seems to be on them...could get ugly for us

Stay away? Why would you stay away from a game thats line is over inflated by the fact that SA is on an OT B2B? The spurs are getting way too disrepaected here and it's time to take advantage. Anymore remember the bucks on a B2B at Denver? SA has only been like 10-2 ATS. Yeah, def stay away...

ela4952 · 03-22-10, 05:18 PM

Okc deffinately will cover. Huge numbers from Durante today

og4667 · 03-22-10, 05:42 PM

seems like you can really make a case for either team here. Thunder bounce back really well after a big loss and the Spurs have more experience, but not sure if Timmy is playing tonight. I say this game goes down to the wire and I would lean Spurs + whatever.
