Leaning towards the MAVS -5. THe Mavs seem like the right play tommorrow as they had today off to get ready for the raptors. THe raptors handled the hawks but had a scare when TJ Ford was taken off on a stretcher. Hoepfully he will be ok to play after tommorrow's game against the Mavs. Since I will be taking the MAVs tommorrow, I hope TJ Ford misses this game. Does anyone know Ford's status for this game? Anyone has any insight on this game.

Considering he is staying overnight in an Atlanta hospital, I highly doubt he'll be playing tomorrow.Comment -
i got the raptors +4.5/+115...don't know how much tj's loss will affect them, calderon is a stud.Comment -
tj ford is going to be bummed he's missing this game as there will be a lot of die hard ut fans that will make the trip to dallas for the game. they will keep him out tonight but i think he just got his bell rung and will be o.k. i agree though that toronto is actually a pretty good team. it's so hard for me to judge the teams that have played boston because of what the celtics are able to do against them (everything) still only small lean to toronto +5.5 good luck.Comment -
I will say again that Ford being out is not a big detriment to this team's play. Calderon is (arguably) a better player and the extra minutes he gets will make up for the dropoff of when Martin/Dixon come in.Comment -
Ford won't be a huge factor, even though he was their second leading scorer. Calderon is a good guard, coming off a good performance, playing for minutes on the team, and the whole situation might actually give Toronto the edge at home, IMO. Still, I chose the better team in Dallas. Dirk's been pretty hot lately, and if that continues, it will be too much for Nesterovic or Bosh to handle, especially his outside game. Not a huge play for me, still have some doubt, especially due to Dallas' road succes (5-6 on the year vs 9-2 @ home). They are still 14-8 on the year ATS. I put 1.5 units on Dallas (-5 @ -110).Comment -
I like Dallas, not sure if I am going to play this one.Comment -
I also like Dallas in this one.Comment -
Damm, there down 18 @ half.Comment -
Yeah Dallas is not looking too good right now.Comment -
Damm!Comment -
Well, Dirk made the difference. Too bad it was due to his shitty play. 6-15 on total shots, 0-3 on 3's, 9 rebs, 2 turnovers, 13 total points. Pretty bad game for him, and the rest of the team.
