    Anyone else backing the Hornets?

    Something tells me that I will be one of very few on the Hornets today.

    Out of 1640 total bets on the overnight line of that game, according to SI, you are 1/246 people (15%) that backed the Hornets.

    Didn't think about checking that...I will probably hold out and see if I can get them at Pk or a small dog in that case.

    I think my lean goes with the Hornets too. It's hard though. A 26-8 team on the road or a team that's 26-10 in home games. The Hornets are a little better versus good offensive teams scoring 99+/game than Boston, but not that great against good defensive teams allowing under 91 points a game. The Celtics are coming off 3 big dog wins in a row, and are probably all looking forward to getting on the plane and finally going home after 5 on the road. I'm just curious to see where the 'smart(big) money' goes on the close to pk line.

    I will be interested in that as well since Boston is at the end of a 5 game road trip and the Hornets have beat some solid teams at home within the last month. The under will probably be my bigger play in this one though.

    I'm on Nawleans. Celtics are fat n happy now with a nice lead. They will be getting their kox sucked in the Big Easy and kickin' back a few as a reward for what they did in TX. Nawleans is the sharp play.

    You're putting waaaaaay too much pressure on yourself. Not even I, in all my greatness and wisdom, would expect to hit 30% this time of year.

    I am going to do my best to hit 30%...I will study a game for 3 hours then flip a coin to pick the best side and cash at least 2 in a row.

    I'm goin' back to bed. Woke up to pee, decided to check the Rox score, then wondered over to SBR and started posting.....


    I need my rest. Was up most of the night creaming the good housekeeping mag and am drained. Later, Captain.

    I am on Boston, but the game could go either way. Boston is just a better team.

    Going with Boston. They're on a roll. CP3 and West are not 100% healthy either.

    Boston was due to drop one on this hellatious road trip. I'm just glad I picked the right time to fade them.

    Boston's road trip took its toll in the fourth quarter.

    I think this game is going to be great for the 3/28 game at Boston. The line is going to be way closer to even and probably give the Celts like -1.5 instead of something a little bit larger. I am going to be all over the Celtics unless some crazy injury occurs between now and then
