    Anyone like Sonics +8.5? Thoughts?
    Well since I am so salty, saltmines are forming in front
    of me right now. I would like everyones input. I was going
    to take a break but I saw this line and my eyes got as
    big as golf balls? Why is Memphis almost 10pt favorites
    here? Seattle is a vastly improved team. I think
    Seattle has turned it around somewhat. Give me your
    thoughts please? the way I am going bet Memphis

    Memphis won last 7 games, many by DD. That could be the reason. I do not say that the reason is rational.

        I put this in the "capping and discussion" thread, but here you all are over this way --

        I think they are a different team with him.

        Fully expect SEA to play well Tuesday night -- only cause for hesitation for me is how solid defensively Memphis is, especially at home. They have their way with weaker teams there.

        I think SEA still cares, and they will make us all some money over the next 3 weeks (as they have over the last 3 weeks).

        This will be a good test for them. Can they dictate tempo on the home court of a quaity "under" team? Can they compete into the 48th minute if they can't play the way they want?

        Very interested in what the rest of the brotherhood has to say.
        Also, if you like Seattle, you might want some over at wherever the number lands. So far it's down a point to to 200. If SEA is going to succeed tomorrow, 198-200 looks like a steal in the kind of game it seems that it would have to be.

            I've been riding MEM for a few games (hot team), but no opinion on this one. Only game I'm looking at is ORL @ CHI. Like the Bulls at a first glance.

              Maybe consideration for a tease.

                  Memphis is the best team that nobody is talking about. Don't care much for the side but the under looks good. Memphis will not let Seattle run on them.

                    Line is currently 7.5 and I expect it to close at 7

                    I went ahead and grabbed some 7.5 in case the line doesn't move.

                                        Lucas I am going to kick myself for not taking the ML in this
                                        game. Sonics will be a power in the NBA next season. they are one or
                                        two moves away from being a top 5 team in West conf.

                                          Yeah. Next time... I saw you wrote many times that Sonics are underrated. Very nice, I think you can celebrate.
                                          And I (hope-fingers crossed) can celebrate too. Suns for the second half over

                                                Nice call bud. This game was all over the place. The first score I saw they were down 15 or something, then they were tied, down by 7, up by 3, down by 5, and then they won by 1. Probably one of those games that takes years off your life.

                                                  This was a nice one. Great call. Seattle's a live underdog anywhere these days. That they came back from that debacle at the start says a lot.

                                                        And imagine what would happen with img´s life, if he betted on ML!

                                                            U know, When you had your other name Jay Edgar Who? I
                                                            almost spelled JEW a few times on accident but erased
                                                            it. Glad I could put JE.
                                                            That's pretty funny, espcially considering J. Edgar Hoover's history.

                                                            I'm glad it's simpler now.

                                                            And of course you can call me Jay . . . .
                                                            (another reference that dates me!!)
