    Celtics sitting half the team tonight


    Kyrie Irving is a new addition to the Celtics’ injury report and won’t play in Monday’s matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans due to a sore right shoulder, while Baynes will miss his second consecutive game with a sprained left ankle. Horford and Hayward have also been downgraded to doubtful, so it appears that Boston will be severely shorthanded for tonight’s contest.

    Be careful yisman. Payton OUT tonight plus Unibrow and Moore questionable for the Pelicans. This game feels like a crapshoot stay away situation.

    Just a bench player

    After the Boston announcement, the Pelicans countered 30 minutes later by saying Glass is questionable (honestly, he should always be listed as questionable).

    Even if Moore+Davis is healthy, i would hesitate taking new orleans on the road against Boston even without Irving, hayward, hortford missing.

    Starting 5 for boston is


    That is a dangerous starting 5 for fully healthy pelicans playing in the road.

    11% of my bankroll on Pelicans to win the game

    It's not about starters as much as about bench deficit.

    I ain't biting. The Celts are the hottest team in the league right now and can easily win without Irving.

    Risky play. Celtics starting 5 i posted above can dance with this pelicans team even with zero bench. Pelicans have their share of injuries as well.

    Not any more risky than most bets. Celtics are too short on the roster
    it will affect their ability to play hard all night. Davis is only questionable and
    perhaps can be used sparingly, this is a game they will try to get out with the W
    while Boston is just looking ahead.

    It wasn't early on, nothing wrong with holding NO +7.5 here bet before announcements.

    Right because most NBA sides end in a push.

    I don't care what your opinions are, your model, what your bookie, or your "source" says. Horford and Baynes out, if AD is playing, I will take New Orleans - anything under 5. AD by far is the best player on the court, and Boston is missing their top 2 players, and it messes their rotations. Yes Boston's starting 5 is still good, but there bench depth isn't when you take out all the missing pieces. I like to bet a game where I see a edge and IMO the Pelicans , if AD is playing, is a solid bet

    Didn’t you also bet on Wash yesterday with the logic that Sanchez belonged on an NFL field as a qb?

    Has the brow become the unquestioned best big in the league now? For awhile DeMarcus was making a case, embiid not ready yet

    Davis and Embiid are top 2 for me unless we consider Greek a 5. Towns is too soft to be in discussion but I think Ayton will join the conversation in a few seasons. I am a big fan of Cousins but coming back from an achilles rupture is going to be difficult for a big man.

    Interestingly Towns always wins the H2H matchup. Overpowers him. I would say Davis is the best, but he's still vulnerable to certain matchups.

    Everyone overpowers Davis, that's his problem. Whiteside dominated him just the other week.

    No. I have a bets thread, check it out sometime.
    Just don't bust my balls because I'm only up 2500%.
    That pisses me off enough as it is.

    Do fans get refunds for their tickets if they paid full price to watch starters and only the scrubs play?

    Only people that benefit are early players

    Meaningless if you had no position

    Boston won by 13. didn't matter if you played or late, everyone usually gets buried when you go with the flow in these situations.

    Yes Sir. Not a big deal. It was down a lot more than this before I built it up again.

    Reminded once again of why I avoid NBA now.

    I don’t blame you on nba. I used to make good money betting hoops but I don’t have enough time to cap so I stay away for the most part these days.

    Good Luck rest of way.
