No, I am just posting my higher rated plays in this thread. My plays generally are from 1-5 units, but I'm going to limit it to what I consider my best plays.

Dallas Mavericks at Milwaukee Bucks
Play: Dallas Mavericks Team Total under 91
Units: 1.5

Avon u like over 203.5 with OKC @ SAS? i think this total way lower than it should be.. both team average over 100 easily. and with a healthy young OKC team i dont see them keep scoring like a m'fu*ker tonight.

I think this is a solid play. These two teams played in San Antonio earlier this season and totaled 221 points and they are the same teams, so you're getting a bit of a cushion.

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 08:20 PM

I added a play as well (above).

ParlayKing · 01-01-11, 08:23 PM

Lol, i find it kinda funny you took Mavs -2 but like them to score under 91

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 08:25 PM

I took them before I heard Marion was out.

I do like Dallas to still win though as Milwaukee is going to really struggle scoring with no Jennings against the Mavs and I really can't see the Mavericks getting swept by the Bucks on the season or losing 3 games in a row.

bettorjon · 01-01-11, 08:38 PM

is dirk playing?

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 08:40 PM

Dirk and Marion are both out for Dallas.

bettorjon · 01-01-11, 08:47 PM

and youre still backing dallas?

tough decision to make on my part.

BOL

pstaff1989 · 01-01-11, 08:48 PM

I still like Dallas on revenge, what you thinking avon

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 08:57 PM

Yeah, I'm not going to back down from my play.

I don't think Dallas is going to get swept by the Bucks on the season or lose three games in a row. Dallas has a bit of revenge factor here from Milwaukee stopping their winning streak earlier this year.

Jennings, Delfino and Gooden (I think) are out for Milwaukee so it isn't like they are full strength. Jennings had 23 points and 10 assists in their game earlier this season.

We also have this extra little motivation from Dallas' Tyson Chandler:

"They (the Bucks) celebrated on our floor, so we owe them something real good."

New Orleans Hornets at Washington Wizards
Play: Under 187.5
Units: 1.5

WINNER

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 09:29 PM

Caron Butler just got hurt in the Mavs game so that's really a problem Mavs -2 wise.

pstaff1989 · 01-01-11, 09:39 PM

And Denver looking shaky. 6 units combined. Hopefully it turns around

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 10:12 PM

Sacramento Kings at Denver Nuggets
Play: Denver Nuggets 1st Half -5
Units: 3

WINNER

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 10:13 PM

Both of my Dallas plays look shaky, but the Mavericks made a big 2Q run.

Avon Barksdale · 01-01-11, 11:25 PM

Caron Butler got hurt a couple minutes into the game or I'm fairly certain Dallas would have won. They just didn't have scoring down the stretch and Butler also is a solid defender who could have helped on Salmons.

I would not have made this a top play of mine if I had known Marion was out, but I was still fairly confident in the Mavericks without him, but not without he and Butler.

Indiana Pacers at New York Knicks
Play: New York Knicks -6
Units: 3

Avon Barksdale · 01-02-11, 01:32 AM

This is my only early play. I've noticed it's mostly 6.5 and even -7 in some places online. I would still take it in that range.

pstaff1989 · 01-02-11, 01:35 AM

You think NY is gonna work 'em? Indy played well against Washington last time out, but that's Washington on the road. I don't think they match up as well against NY. glad to see you on this play, though

Avon Barksdale · 01-02-11, 01:48 AM

I think the Knicks will win comfortably.

Indiana has been in a scoring funk lately which is a problem facing a team that scores as much as New York. Indiana was 5-10 in December and 0-7 on the road.

The Knicks were 5-2 at home in December with their only losses by 2 to Boston and Miami. New York is going to want to open the new year at home with a big win following two road losses to close out 2010.

pstaff1989 · 01-02-11, 01:59 AM

Houston is catching 3.5 @ Portland, but the way the blazers played up tempo against the Jazz I am not sure they won't cover that line. I think Houston could hang tough in that spot, though

Clipshow are also 0-4 ats home vs. the east. Atlanta could cover -1 there, especially after they dropped the last game @ okc

just trying to bounce some ideas off you

TOTTENHAM2 · 01-02-11, 02:12 AM

NICE START

I would lean Portland, but it's not a real strong lean. Houston played well in December even if it was against sub par teams and Portland is not exactly a top team. I could also see the Blazers having difficulty keeping up with the Rockets scoring if they are on a roll.

I would also lean Atlanta, but again not a strong enough lean for me to make it an official play. The Clippers have actually been playing pretty well lately, particularly at home where the crowd seems to be energetic because of Griffin. I would lean to the Hawks side just because a young team like Los Angeles has trouble closing games out and on a 1 point spread (basically a ML game) I would pick the team that is more experienced and better coached.
