this is a gift u guys and gals....and if you don't see it heres the reason.
blazers lose as +1.5 or +1 in chicago monday night
(had chicago -1.5 and -1 at legendz and 5dimes)
there now +3 the next night vs a good bucks team...
the books hate the bucks at home...bucks cover soo many home games...
im wondering why is the line so low?

....i was for sure thinking bucks -4.5 or -5 to open.....

blazers + anything is good to go....even +1 if the line were to come down

Its because of last year, and I know this year isnt last year, but last year the Blazers only lost two straight on the road one time and similar to this year that second loss came on a back to back with the last team being the Bucks in overtime. That game was only like 175 pts before double overtime. So some may try under with this one. Good luck.

Bucks -2.5 is a lock for me. Did you watch Portland last night? they coming off a b2b game, they had no idea on the off end vs bulls, the only bright light was Alridge and he can't play 40min in 2 straight. Roy was afwul. Sure I exepct a bounceback by Blazers, but others than Alridge, Roy are playing just horrible..

I hasvent locked in anything yet but this one is screaming UNDER... Portland didnt look too good last nite and theyre on the back end of a b2b... GL

Good spot for the Bucks imo.

**WillC** · 11-02-10, 06:55 AM

Skiles starting to realize that the original starting 5 of Bogut, Salmons, BJ, LRMAM and Delfino is the way to go. Hard to see the Blazers winning this one tbh.

**diop** · 11-02-10, 07:04 AM

the bucks actually have a really nice starting 5. can easily go up against the blazers 5 imo. blazers must be sick of being on the road i like all the faves so far tomorrow with the lines released

I'm genuinely considering playing the over.. if the pubic is on the under, I will definitely lock in the over. Line stands at 186.5, I see this moving down to 185/184.5

**korbal29** · 11-02-10, 07:16 AM

the under is a lock, regardless what the public bets

The bulls shot 61% FG, any team will struggle when a team is shooting those kind of figures. Roy had and average night, but he's still the team leader at 23ppg. Expect a decent bounceback in this match, blazers don't often go 0-2b2b. I don't know what to make of the Bucks yet, so i'm taking portland +3.

Bucks are a great home team be careful. Blazers also played yesterday

**zandyman** · 11-02-10, 08:26 AM

I'd take the O if it wasn't a btb & the Blazers if the # hits 4....

**NittanyLionsFan** · 11-02-10, 09:02 AM

I think the Bucks look good here match-up wise with Portland, so combine that w/ the fact Portland played last night I would say the Bucks are the play if there is one. I'm personally gonna stay away from this game though, if I bet it'll probably be MIL 1H. Portland is really not gonna want to lose back to back games, after starting 3-0 they're gonna want to stay 'on a roll' and that would require rebounding tonight with a win...even though it's gonna be a tough one.

**punman** · 11-02-10, 09:33 AM

Check out the 3pg% of POR last night, 0!...will see a bounceback tonight.

Hard to not like Portland here at +3, the Blazers will win straight up. Milwaukee is not as good as people think.

u my friend r just like me. u see the teams for what they r and u dont dream for things that arent there.

3 point underdogs to a team that shoould win the northwest is weird line. their pushing u to take bucks here

**ManBearPig** · 11-02-10, 05:52 PM

The line opened at -2, -2.5 and has had a majority on POR...whether that's a money or just people I don't know, but the line has moved to -3 in favor of MIL and stayed constant. If they wanted us to take the bucks wouldn't they move the line closer to the key number of 2 than 3? I think they are banking on people's perception of POR as being better than MIL, up to this point, and with a low line they want public money to pour in on POR and have no problem leaving the number where it's at. I actually like the MIL 1H better and played that. POR could make it interesting in the 2H as they finally wake up and generally play better in the 2H anyways.

It's early enough that who knows what anything means but it's fun to guess...GL tonight guys!

**Michaelmakesit** · 11-02-10, 05:54 PM

they want even $ on both sides...they dont know whose winning. lmfao

STOP PEOPLE! BOOKS DO NOT KNOW WHOSE WINNING GAMES! THEY JUST WANT 50/50 MONEY AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE ON BOTH SIDES.
THEY ADJUST LINES TO GET THAT 50/50 MONEY SITUATION AND TRY THEIR HARDEST TO DO SO

THE LINE MOVING UP OR DOWN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY PICK!

BLAZERS R THE BETTER TEAM AND I FEEL THEY WIN IN THIS SPOT EVEN AFTER A LOSS IN THE PREVIOUS GAME ON THE ROAD AS +3.

BUCKS ARE NOT A GOOD TEAM!

**ManBearPig** · 11-02-10, 06:00 PM

Who said anything about Books knowing who wins??? Of course they want even money on both sides which is why the line hasn't moved...they probably have what they want at this point...now they play the game...nuff said!!!

this is really freaing me out.
5dimes 30% are on the bucks moneyline. i never ever see these lose ever when 30% or lower are on home team moneylines. shit!

im hoping if bucks edge out a win they dont cover -3
