Hi kobstopa!

Thanks for a great thread. I saw that yesterday you almost picked several games on the spot. Impressive.

I have a question to you regarding tonights games. On another thread I read that many people were sure that Orlando would win against Indiana tonight. Because they got outplayed totally yesterday. But I am not sure about that. Indiana has played really well lately and I was going to bet on LA lakers the other night -5.5 but changed my mind in the last second and glad I did, so no play for me there.

Anyway saw that you had Indiana as a winner with 6 points. Will you bet on that game. What´s your thoughts about that game and would be interesting to hear your point of view on that so many are sure Orlando will have revansch here and that Indiana also coming back home after playing away for so many games.

Thanks

Toronto at Phoenix
Andrea Bargnani may return for a small mins & wont be a significant offensive threat.
Both teams currently amongst the lowest Offensive Efficiency; 17th Phoenix & Toronto at 28th in ranking, with around 43-44 FG% per game; taking into account shooting slump and injuries rotation. Both also can play a decent defensive style with a round middle tier Defensive Efficiency. These will translate into an average low scoring game around total of 178 to 180's.

Take under 186.5 Points (1 unit)

Cleveland at Miami
A rebound from a bad lost to the bucks at home + an in your face Dan Gilbert + Daniel Gibson's bad hair cut, should be enough factors for Lebron to get up and mess up the Cavaliers.

Miami -12.5 (1 unit)

[Elad]

Like the under,their only chancefor Raptors to win this one is through the defense,their O suck...

Good luck kobstopa

BOL tonight kob.

Indiana 5-0 at home. Both hasn't lost two in a row, both are .600 teams. Both had flatted the Lakers.

Indiana a better jumpshooting team & better depth with david west whom is started to fit in well.
would the following be a factor:
-Orlando came off a bad game at boston
-Indiana came off 3 road games stretch
may be a small factor but not a significant.

important to note that Indiana won in LA. & GW with b2b 3's FG 50-53% with 5 to 7 guys had scored in double digits.

would i bet in this game, a leaning toward yes, but there are better spot. gl

New York at Cleveland
A major changes had the Knicks some instant success today, result from a meeting between their key players earlier on; to have some understanding of what need to be done to win and build some team confident. This required Carmelo to give up some touches of the rock. Also they have added Jerome Jordan/Jeremy Lin from D league to the bench.
the Knicks frontline should have a good match up against Cleveland(too play b2b game), dont be surprised to see a another big double-doubles from chandler and Amare Stoudemire.
New York (-1.5) (2 unit)
Take over 194.5 (1 unit)

Milwaukee at Houston
Take Houston -4 (2 unit)

New Jersey at Philly
Take Philly -10.5 (2 unit)

Portland at Golden State
Portland is just 3-6 away, now on to a b2b2b game; but came off b2b win at home. They have enough depth to handle this schedule and should have enough energy for one more game to win at west coast/oakland.

This is a proof that the book is relies on actuarial stat, & not from some basketball genius who we think their job is to track the game. From a number key adv stat GSW is edge out Portland from FG% to rebound/offensive, across 6 categories at least. Thus Golden State is the fav to win at home. But the bottom-line, best team in this spot is Portland and yes they have seen that Memphis game & their coaching staff will know what to do.
Portland ML (1 unit) great value at +150

Hoping Sixers and thunder can blow there opponents out tonight I'm liking the spreads. The nets suck so I'll be surprised if they win straight up. Evan turner is getting nasty! Go Sixers

Hi all,

What is the general consensus on the OKC/Hornets? Will it reach the 13pts+?

I'm liking the Portland and Philly play! Bring'em home fellah!

[CallMeMrOMac]

When people put "-2 units" shouldn't they really say "-2.2 units" when they lose spreads...

[kobstopa]

I saw that you like Boston +8 but I'm thinking Orlando is gonna beat them by 10. They want some revenge lol

[kobstopa]

i agree with revenge factor, boston have 2-3 days rest, they might as well started to come together like the Bucks

[bowers1989]

Boston +8.5 seems safer. Worries me that it keeps moving to Orlando though.

[kobstopa]

Memphis at L.A. Clippers
Take Memphis Grizzlies +3½ (2 unit)

Boston +8.5 seems safer. Worries me that it keeps moving to Orlando though.
