what is a zig zag theory?

Its a concept of FADing the team who Won ATS in the prior game. This is thought to work, b/c you are hedging the possible overreaction from the books, or betting public.

Look at the Cavs, and Hawks opening lines for game 2.

Hawks -7.5 is the best evidence of this theory being respected by oddsmakers.

Definitely like the Bucks game 2. Skiles is light years ahead of Woodson when it comes to coaching. Hell the Bucks were down 24 and were a bucket away from covering.

The Hawks lose focus at times though. Joe Johnson said that anyways, should be interesting knowing the Bucks have the coaching advantage.

I am with you on the Jazz, Denver isn't playing any defense and Utah has very underrated players in rookie Wes Mathews and hard hat player Paul Milsap. I really would like to see Fesenko play good D tonight the kid is a ****ing giant I have seen him up close and personal before, hes easily over 300 pounds. Deron williams had a bad start the last game and Utah was in it the whole game until the fourth when JR smith and Melo exploded which most of the first 3Q they were already without Okur so his absence doesnt bother me much. Having Fes instead of Okur should help your 1stH Under as well cause Okur scores a lot and plays no D where as fes doesnt look to score but just to own the paint and rebound. If Cleveland covers I am gonna hit UT hard.

**HoulihansTX** · 04-19-10, 06:48 PM

I have cancelled both of my 1stH bets. Bets are off. Only spreads left.

**tbill11** · 04-19-10, 06:50 PM

Seems like a lot of sharps are on the Jazz tonight. Hard to pull the trigger without Okur and Kirilenko, but look at how the Blazers did last night without Roy...

Goodluck tonight Houli. With you on the Spurs pts. and ML but I think your avitar may jinx your Bobcats picks. Goin with the better team, the Magic. Charlotte gave them their best shot and still lost by 9. This one may get out of control and look alot like the Boston/Miami game. Goodluck tonight.
