Wanna like Portland but they just got a stick up their ass on the road. Still may take a nibble.

What do you think about the BAL/HOU game?

Tough game, imo. I think Baltimore wins by 1 or 2, Ravens need this game bad and are the better team. May have to go with Baltimore ML.

I'm actually thinking over.

That total is high for a reason (relative to Baltimore games).

I like the Bucks to cover in Dallas.

Don't really have an opinion on that one yet. Starting to like Miami -11. Miami rolling and winning by hefty margins and the Hornets stumbling and on a b2b getting crushed yesterday by Philly.

If The Greek goes back to 3, I'll play it.

I don't like that they're hanging the 3.5. It opened at 2.5.

Better hurry -- opened at 9.5, and some shops are going to 11.5.

Low total says it all there. Miami will win comfortably, but by how much exactly? I think you'll sweat out the 11. Hornets have been awful lately, true, but Miami's coming back from a grueling road trip.

I think the unders in both the MIA/NO and POR/MEM games might be the way to go -- especially with the former.

"portland wins this game".....nice writeup pal

you couldn't pick another game? i gotta toss ya a bone?

gl pal but lets try to keep it original around here & not muddy up the forum

**mtbaker** · 12-13-10, 02:11 PM

memphis takes this- they are playing better and will be pumped to come home with revenge against a blazers team that will be dog tired (4th game in 5 nights) with Roy out with a bum knee. gl though u may be right

your posts all got one thing in common, each of them is just as worthless as the next. anyone could look at your history and see that. where are your picks located? I am up over 3500 in the NBA alone this season and have watched maybe 3 games total so I must be doing something right. It's hard for me to do write ups when I maybe know 10 players total in the NBA..

this is what cracks me up from time to time when people think they actually know what's going on inside the players heads..

Sup Bama. Do you have the goods on this game? I can tell you from my experience about the Blazers is they show up when people least expect them to. This is obviously a hard spot of them and it seems the world is against the Blazers, but it seems they thrive in these situations.

ya, I was playing heavy on the 2nd night of b2b's so far this season... only let me down once vs the lakers during such bets so far this season.

**obamaismyuncle** · 12-13-10, 02:24 PM

When I looked at the schedule this morning before even looking at the lines I said to myself Portland wins this game by 2-3 points, so when I looked at the lines and seen Portland +3.5 it seemed like a gift. I should probably take Portland ML but love the extra insurance here. I see now the line is down to +3.

Players are often "pumped" to avenge a loss.... especially when they lost to a team who was minus their star player.
Blazers should be plenty tired though, thats for sure.

**obamaismyuncle** · 12-13-10, 02:26 PM

Portland +3.5 is the only bet in the NBA that looks good to me tonight. I did put Miami in a parlay but didn't make a straight bet on them.

I could very well be wrong here. As I said above I look at the games before ever looking at the lines and thought to myself Portland wins by 2-3 here.

a team playing 4th in 5, or 5th in 7 should not be favored, unless they are playing the Clips or maybe the Wiz

**Whippit** · 12-13-10, 02:33 PM

whatever pal

tell you what, when that 3500 suddenly evaporates to subzero....then you'll be all friendly again

my advice is work on your money management while i toss you the bone

gl pal

**ManBearPig** · 12-13-10, 02:34 PM

I think POR can win this one and will be on them too, but I would probably fade them in the next game as it seems like that's the game that these teams seem to come out and lose.

you're a joke pal. work on my money management? lol, I am probably in the top 5% of SBR when it comes to MM, you will never see me go all in, chase, or bet too much on any game all my nba plays are between one and three hundred. you're also not gonna see me pull disappearing acts cause I went broke and need to reload. I am here for the long haul.

**Nuggz** · 12-13-10, 04:31 PM

Away team has won the past 6 meetings in this matchup. Portland on a 4-game streak until hitting a wall in San Antonio. Meanwhile Griz losing 4-straight until eeking out 2 wins, one in OT, one by a point. Portland has been inconsistent but playing good ball as of late. Definitely like the Blazers in this spot.

**Whippit** · 12-13-10, 10:47 PM

no hard feelings pal but this was horrible play

don't bet into market adjustments pal. it's suicide.

4 games in 5 nites & you got burned wearing big boy pants & talkin trash

I issued a pregame level 5 alert forum-wide that I wouldn't bet this

you're just too irrational.....pm me if i can be of more help

are you mentally unstable? go through the last 2 months of my posts in the NBA forum and you tell me if I am up or down. I think you're mentally ill..
