Utah ML (+245)

**El Sol** · 04-19-10, 08:56 PM

<---- You may need it, but I like the value here. I took the points

**Capybara** · 04-19-10, 08:57 PM

Seems like the sharps are on Utah as well based on the line movement... I myself can't really figure out why.

**emoney** · 04-19-10, 09:04 PM

Yeah, why all the late money on the Jazz?

Denver will still take the series, but they have to lose tonight's game. It's not their will but they have no choice. They just have to lose. They can't help it.

What's your reasoning for taking Utah? Affallo is going to come out and harrass D will again tonight like the great defender he is. Okur was the jazz only hope of staying close in this series because he could expose Nene or Kmart on the perimeter and cause one of them to commit opening the lanes for D will. Nene is just going to camp out in the paint tonight.

Mello could have dropped 60 in the last game, all he did was take jump shots, he could have abused CJ miles or Mathews all day in the post or driving to the rim if he wanted to. The win by Denver, although a large win, wasn't even impressive, because they won't get far if they continue to play that style of basketball- settling for jump shots.

The question is who is going to step up for Utah, because D will will have a strong game tonight, but not anything more than he usually does. Boozer will play solid. If Kover doesn't show Utah will lose this game 100%.

Denver has mismatches all over the court. Particularly tonight with Nene against Kuffos? Nene is a skilled big man, Kuff can hold his ground against Nene but Nene is too skilled with his back to the basket.

I'd love to hear your reasoning for taking Utah. Thanks.

I agree with everything you've said but just read my signature - "The easier it seems, ...

On paper, there are no reasons why Utah should win but that's why they'll win.

I was on Denver-6.5 all day but have recently switch and am taking Utah moneyline as well as the under 213. Goodluck and I can't believe I'm saying this but go Utah!!

Yes.

**MarlinsFan2212** · 04-19-10, 09:20 PM

No way. I like Denver. Utah is Hungry, but defensively they have no answer for Melo at all. Hes gunna drop 40 again. So unless Utah shoots lights out, theres no way they will be able to compensate for all the injuries plaguing them.

**pat venditto** · 04-19-10, 09:22 PM

I like the bet. Utah is a good team +245 is worth a shot.

**Cornerback** · 04-19-10, 09:29 PM

On it.

Cmon wilf. Utah may have a shot tonight, but your not giving any justification for your bet. Because it seems easy you go the other way? Cmon bro that's not the way to gamble, this is the NBA playoffs, not MLB or hockey.

**Holtgetsback** · 04-19-10, 09:38 PM

Books don't give away free money

Sharp play

**Holtgetsback** · 04-19-10, 09:40 PM

Keep hammering the Jazz boys I want a better Nuggets number

**MaInIsLe** · 04-19-10, 09:42 PM

Jazz ain't winning but they may cover. Take the points.

**Wilforth** · 04-19-10, 10:02 PM

Carmelo hit with a flagrant foul!

**Wilforth** · 04-19-10, 10:14 PM

Utah with the lead after the 1Q.

**Mac4Lyfe** · 04-19-10, 10:14 PM

Melo should have gotten kicked out of the game for that shit. You don't grab a man's hand and twist it as he's going up for a layup. That was BS.

**Powderguy** · 04-19-10, 10:15 PM

It's gonna be a shootout!

1st quarter cash money...

**suicidekings** · 04-19-10, 10:20 PM

I just added Jazz ML +291 and U223 before the end of the 1Q. However I've definitely got that "I can't pick a winner to save my life" feeling right now...

That was a huge BS.

**talnted** · 04-19-10, 10:23 PM

there is no way utah can maintain 70% shooting. They need to find other ways to shut denver down if they have a prayer of winning this game.

That's my concern as well. Otherwise, they're shooting well.

**Mac4Lyfe** · 04-19-10, 10:44 PM

Close out the +3.5 half Utah... Let's cash this bitch.

1H line closed at +3 (+100).

**feedawg** · 04-19-10, 10:45 PM

That is looking good right now!

**Wilforth** · 04-19-10, 10:49 PM

Most of the players in this game are actors.

**Wilforth** · 04-19-10, 10:50 PM

I got it at BetJam @3.5 for -110 and at theGreek @3.5 for -115. Both placed fairly close to tip off...
