    SJ,
    I can only play sides and totals for the game in WNBA. So far I like Chicago at home at -1 and phoenix at home at -3.5. I like Chicago over 155, Phoenix over 179, and LA Sparks over 154. Interested to know if you have an opinion on any of these game sides or totals.

    Looks like you have a solid 1H pick. Good luck on it today and good luck with any of your other picks. Football is only 3 months away can't wait to see your picks on your canes. With your knowledge on your team, I will be all over that.

      I am also liking the Lynx +5 1H vs Atlanta. The Dream have been terrible in the 1H at home going 2-5 SU in the 1st half with one of the wins coming against the worst team in the league Tulsa. The Lynx have been playing much better as of late winning three of their last four, much of this due to the return of their superstar Seimone Augustus. I can't pass up these kind of points with a team who can't even win the 1H let alone by 6 points. This is also a non-public play also as about 55% of the public is on Atl.

      Lynx +5 1H LOCKED

        Phoenix is a tough team to be backing right now, they are really playing bad. I would wait for them to win one before backing them. They are in a disarray and are lacking a lot of confidence right now

            Thanks for that zafzaf, lots of good trends there indeed. Did you come up with them yourself or was there a site that provided them?

                  Really pathetic showing from Minnesota shooting 25% in the 1H, unfrickin real and uncappable.

                      You had a great read on it, SJ. But you're right. There's no way to cap a team that has that much of an off night. On to the next...

                        There is very little chance of that happening. Amare is a bad defender and rebounder, he doesn't like him that much. He would rather have Boozer for cheaper over Amare and Boozer badly wants to play for the Heat.

                          Sky can still make it a great night since I took them for two plays in the 1H and game.

                            Amare is not a bad rebounder. He has played with 2 of the best rebounders at their positions respectively with Grant Hill and J Rich. J Rich is arguably the best rebounding 2 guard in the league when he is playing with energy and Grant Hill was averaging 10 boards a game at one point. Of course you aren't going to get 12 rebounds a game playing with those two guys.

                            Come on bro- don't even start to compare Boozer to Amare. Amare is the best PF in the league there is no question about it. Boozer is not even a top 8 PF in this league. Boozer's abilities are limited.

                            Miami was a solid defensive team this year it was their offense that struggled. Amare can take any PF/C in the league off the dribble isolation on the elbow. He dismantled Gasol in the playoffs. We need another offensive threat like that who can create his own shot at any time.

                              I may have a second half play on these late games so be on the lookout.

                                I am not comparing them, I like Amare better but I know for a fact that Riley prefers Boozer over him. Come on man, Amare is not a good rebounder for the caliber of player he is made out to be (best PF in the league to many). The guy gets 4-5 rebounds pretty often, that is unacceptable for a PF who wants a max contract. I don't care who is on his team, you can't be doing that.

                                Also I don't think Miami's defense was as good as what people made it out to be. Alot of it had to do with the fact that we played SO SLOW that there just weren't that many shots put up in games so the games would be low scoring, The Heat never ran. I thought our defense was good but it wasn't one of the best in the league as the numbers showed.

                                No arguing that Amare OWNS anyone on the league on the offensive end. He is too quick for anyone and his ball handling is crazy for a guy of his size. He is a highly underrated ball handler.

                                I would really like to see the Heat try and get Jordan Farmar. I think he is a nice point guard.

                                  I am taking a good look at the Chicago Sky tonight. They are at home and playing against Connecticut. Connecticut is 10-5 while Chicago is 6-9 yet Chicago is favored by 1.5 points tonight. I would say about 60% of the public is on Conn tonight and the line has only moved from -2 to -1.5 Sky. I am in particular looking at the Sky for the 1H. The reason being that TheGreek is juicing the Sky 1H -0.5 -115.

                                  I start to think why would they be juicing the Sky 1H -0.5 -115. My first answer/thought is the obvious. They are the worse team in this matchup and with such a low spread they have to win the 1H in order to have a chance to win late. Then I started to look into the stats and noticed a few things.

                                  Chicago is 3-0 their last three 1H's vs Conn and they haven't been too close.
                                  51-31 SKY
                                  42-37 SKY
                                  42-28 SKY

                                  This is how Chicago has fared so far in the 1H during the regular season at home. They are 4-4 at home in the 1H.
                                  52-50 SKY (vs INDY)
                                  42-29 SKY (vs SEA)
                                  41-34 SKY (vs TUL)
                                  31-41 LIB (vs NY)
                                  45-42 MYS (vs Wash)
                                  41-38 SKY (vs ATL)
                                  41-37 MYS (vs WASH)
                                  26-29 FEV (vs INDY)

                                  This is how Conn has fared on the road in the 1H. Conn is 3-4 in the 1H on the road with big losses when they lose. Two of their wins came against two teams that have just been playing horrendous in PHX and TUL. The other 1H win was against NY who they eventually lost by 9 to in that game.

                                  51-32 ATL
                                  33-26 WAS
                                  42-26 IND
                                  43-36 LA
                                  53-43 CONN (vs PHX)
                                  46-33 CONN (vs NY)
                                  42-50 CONN (vs TUL)

Connecticut is 10-5 while Chicago is 6-9 yet Chicago is favored by 1.5 points tonight. I would say about 60% of the public is on Conn tonight and the line has only moved from -2 to -1.5 Sky. I am in particular looking at the Sky for the 1H. The reason being that TheGreek is juicing the Sky 1H -0.5 -115.

                                      I start to think why would they be juicing the Sky 1H -0.5 -115. My first answer/thought is the obvious. They are the worse team in this matchup and with such a low spread they have to win the 1H in order to have a chance to win late. Then I started to look into the stats and noticed a few things.

                                      Chicago is 3-0 their last three 1H's vs Conn and they haven't been too close.

                                      42-37 SKY
                                      42-28 SKY

                                      This is how Chicago has fared so far in the 1H during the regular season at home. They are 4-4 at home in the 1H.
                                      52-50 SKY (vs INDY)
                                      42-29 SKY (vs SEA)
                                      41-34 SKY (vs TUL)
                                      31-41 LIB (vs NY)
                                      45-42 MYS (vs Wash)
                                      41-38 SKY (vs ATL)
                                      41-37 MYS (vs WASH)
                                      26-29 FEV (vs INDY)

                                      This is how Conn has fared on the road in the 1H. Conn is 3-4 in the 1H on the road with big losses when they lose. Two of their wins came against two teams that have just been playing horrendous in PHX and TUL. The other 1H win was against NY who they eventually lost by 9 to in that game.

                                                Doing my handicapping right now for the WNBA, should have my plays/writeups soon.

                                                  I am taking a look at the Sky/Dream matchup. Atlanta has been REDHOT winning four in a row and six of their last seven. The thing that interests me in this game is that the public is actually not on the Dream. The public is about 60% on the Sky tonight. Chicago has been playing a bit better winning three of their last four but are just 3-5 their last 8.

                                                  These two teams have played each other twice already with the road team winning both games. Atlanta won the most recent matchup june 15th by 7 and lost June 4th by 10. In the game Atlanta lost they had 23 turnovers which really killed them. I don't see this happening again tonight with the way Atlanta has been playing as of late.

                                                  Atlanta was -6 in the first matchup and actually came out a bit higher in tonights game at -6.5. Even with the public on Chicago the line has stayed at -6.5 and went to -7 on some sites at one point. I am going to go ahead and buy under the number 6 to -5.5. Atlanta has recently won two games at home by 6 and I just got a feeling about this one.

                                                  Dream -5.5 -125 LOCKED

                                                    I am also liking Washington tonight. They play @ Tulsa. The line came out at Washington -6 and has gone up to -6/-7 at most sites despite the public being on Tulsa at 60%, Covers shows 56% on Washington so it may be a split game. Either way even with split betting the movement is still noteworthy. It will be rare to find another game with this many people on Tulsa. They are 3-12 this year and 2-7 at home. Their last win came over a month ago to Minnesota playing without their star Seimone Augustus. The fact that the public is not poundinggg Washington and the game being close to split is a huge reason why I really like Washington. This game would seem like a game that Vegas is trying to trap with Washington but with the public numbers it's obvious they aren't doing that. They could care less who wins the game. I don't have the numbers on it but I would assume that the majority public is on Tulsa on the moneyline, most of the time they won't want to lay the big juice on a -6.5 favorite

                                                    Washington on the other hand has won seven of their last 8 games and has been rolling. They are a decent 4-4 on the road this year and 2-1 their last 3. I just see Washington continuing their recent success on the road and win by double digits. Tulsa has lost three straight games by double digits and seven of their last eight games by double digits.

                                                    Mystics -5.5 -120 LOCKED

                                                          I am seeing 149.5-150 on most sites now. I would lean OVER in that game. I see the scoring in this game to be in the 158 range. Something like 84-74 Seattle.

                                                            SweetJones, are you putting anything on that Over/Under Seattle LA match, or is the over just your LEAN?
