NBA preseason action

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 03:52 AM

like the twolves and pacers over, just weary of minnesota playing b2b but i think we finally see the pacers put up some big score at home

**Blue_Chips** · 10-13-10, 11:40 AM

What was the number when you looked at it? It now sits at 207.5.

hey guys, as a wizard fan it is hard to support gilbert arenas

**kd2** · 10-13-10, 02:35 PM

Hawley do you think the twolves can take the pacers out right for a nice ML win? Pacers have been playing like garbage.

i have been looking at that line and i think there is a reason why the pacers are -7 and that is because they win big tonight. The timberwolves are 3 - 0 in this preseason and the pacers have not been good so the line makes little sense.

This could be a good spot for a twolves let down after a big win over the nuggets last night, their first preseason game on the road and playing a b2b.

Form so far doesnt suggest any reason why the pacers should be favored by 7, hence why i think they will cover that tonight, just like with the kings last night hosting the warriors

Hey Hawley! How are you doing? Are you posting any plays today?

good mate yourself?

i have made two plays for the day, should have posted the hornets earlier as i got htem at +2.5, but i still like them to win SU either way

1 unit on hornets +2.5

1 unit on pacers / timberwolves over 207.5

thats it for now, taking it easy to make sure i dont give back everything i have won so far

today

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 06:46 PM

add 2 more units on hornets ML

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 07:34 PM

looks as if the twolves pacers over will fall short, i would say by less than 10 points

the 3 units on the hornets looks in better shape though

**BigMattM** · 10-13-10, 07:39 PM

Good luck with the plays tonight.

**forloveofthegame** · 10-13-10, 07:44 PM

what you get the ml at?

+100

this pacers game is going to go well under that 208 mark, last few days with totals have been no good, but i have been trying a few things and very rarely in the regular season will i play unders with teams like the nuggets, warriors and twolves

lets hope the hornets hold on and it will be a positive day

**forloveofthegame** · 10-13-10, 07:51 PM

im going to be on the kings ml tonight

**delve_deeper** · 10-13-10, 07:51 PM

Let's hope for a few overtimes

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 07:53 PM

good option, no kobe, the lakers are just back from europe and their bench will see some big minutes.

good luck on it, i might take the kings ATS

will need a double overtime minimum to hit this over, this third quarter has ruined any chance

**forloveofthegame** · 10-13-10, 08:00 PM

i meant ATS lmao. dunno what i was thinking when i posted that.

way to risky in preseason for the kings to win straight up!

the line says it all sometimes

if a play looks to good to be true it usually is

unfortunately i didnt make a play on the spread after this

and i should of known with a blowout it would go under the total

**h3da** · 10-13-10, 08:26 PM

You got news that Kobe not playing?

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 08:28 PM

**forloveofthegame** · 10-13-10, 08:30 PM

last i heard hes going to play two quarters of eight minute segments

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 08:32 PM

Bryant impresses Jackson in Lakers practice

http://sports.espn.go.com/los-angeles/nba/news/story?id=5679281&campaign=rss&source=NBAHeadlines

Phil Jackson's thoughts about star player Kobe Bryant's right knee were put somewhat at ease after the 15-year veteran looked impressive in the Los Angeles Lakers' practice Tuesday.

looks like its about 16 - 18 minutes but potentially more

**forloveofthegame** · 10-13-10, 08:57 PM

god bosh is hot. get him out of there

**hawley** · 10-13-10, 08:57 PM

yup he has taken over

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 12:18 AM

2 - 1 for the day adding 2 units

totral record: 14 - 6

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 01:09 AM

first play for tomorrow will be jazz -5

televised home game for the jazz, sloan appears to be taking preseason very serious and he has admitted he was pretty disappointed with their last on the road to the suns especially their shooting.

i dont see them shooting 35% on their home court, they were given today off from training so i also expect their starters to play good minutes again

suns still seem to be adjusted to their changes this season and im not sold on them on the road yet

also like the over here, it burnt me last time but both teams did not shoot the ball well and they still put up 205 points. The total for this game is at 206

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 01:12 AM

and the line went to -6 as i wrote that

**h3da** · 10-14-10, 02:27 AM

My book still has it for -5.. Might take it since suns have not impressed me at all this preseason

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 02:35 AM

i like the play but i also must admit it might be slightly bias as i am a huge jazz fan

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 04:16 PM

3 units on suns / jazz over 207

this total almost hit when they last played a few days ago, and that involved the jazz shooting the ball poorly which i dont think will happen at home, and the suns shot 59% from the FT line

20 turnovers for the suns as well which should be reduced.

the suns have also have an everyday training schedule at the moment which may explain their average preseaon results so far, another reason for my play on the jazz -6

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 08:40 PM

jazz up 31 - 27 after the first

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 09:25 PM

56 -55 at the half

over looking good, need the jazz starters to play some big minutes to cover the spread

**hawley** · 10-14-10, 10:10 PM

jazz ATS looking good now but the over looks shot, neither team has been scoring in this 4th quarter

**Masu485** · 10-14-10, 10:15 PM

i'm on the Under on the Utah game, it's gonna be tight that's for sure, can go either way at this pt.
