    Does Russell Westbrook play tomorrow?

    What is the chance, by percentage, that he does play tomorrow? I want to get ahead of this, because i want to put a sizeable bet on 76ers at this -5.5 line if its likely he doesnt play. Also, if he does play, how effective can he be? He has no jump shot. I think he will be 50% or lower if he plays. Your thoughts?

    Why not just be safe and lay the juice on the money line

    See this is the type of things I’m not teaching my son regarding gambling. That statement comes from a losing point of view.

    If you’re confident about a pick for any reason sell back the juice for a half point & get the game even money or -101 to -103. Do this long term & it help your chances at making money in this industry would be my advice. As far as Westbrook playing or not playing we obviously know he’s not 100%. I think he will play & the line will get higher as tip off approaches.

    He looked pretty good as he was about to attack the fan in Philly. Know noticeable limps. I say he plays

    His ankle didn't look that sprained to me after the popcorn got dumped on his head. That's all I know..

    I’d be very surprised if he doesn’t play, he just stepped on someone’s foot, it didn’t look like a major injury.
