LTA's NBA Plays

**alamo** · 03-28-12, 10:29 PM

Im taking a big chance here boys and going to jump off this raft and took under 190.5

I could be middled but so be it. I rarely do this but just hating what I saw in that 1qtr and the 2nd q is confirming my fears.

**mikea33** · 03-28-12, 10:30 PM

gross. cant even make a layup. Suns suckin for us. clippers not much better. both benches are horrible for overs

**Catchn_Picks** · 03-28-12, 10:32 PM

Jared Dudley makes the Suns first FG with 2:59 left in the Q and it didnt even go thru the hoop (Goaltending).

**CheeseHead** · 03-28-12, 10:35 PM

This is ugly...from this past week or so I'm about to go on TILT. Not just LTA plays but I've been on a bad run with my own plays as well... Can't take this anymore....really testing my money managment right now

**mikea33** · 03-28-12, 10:40 PM

clippers are such a fraud.
They are one of the youngest most athletic teams and not to mention they are very talented.....they dont push the pace at all.........makes no sense to my why Del Negro wants them to be a half court offense based team. They can still play good defense by speeding up there offensive pace

**CheeseHead** · 03-28-12, 10:44 PM

33 point quarter....leads us to O/U 95 for the 2nd half...which gives us O/U 179 for the game now. Don't have the option to buy out of this anymore.

**mikea33** · 03-28-12, 10:45 PM

no but that over 94 in the 2H looks very juicy

**mikea33** · 03-28-12, 10:46 PM

i dont see why either team wouldnt want to work transition game.....but then again these nba coaches try and outsmart themselves so who knows

Where are you seeing 94? I see 94 for the Hornets/GS game and 95 for the Suns/Clips game.

**ronnieseah** · 03-28-12, 10:50 PM

hope they feed them bananas so they can throw some balls through the hoop.

Exactly Mike...I believe that Chris Paul was a great acquisition for LAC. I imagined the quick pace lobs by Paul over the hoop to Griffin on the slam. That offense has not appeared for most of this year.

**CheeseHead** · 03-28-12, 11:18 PM

Pace seems to have picked up some in the 3rd quarter but what horrible free throw shooting. I can't watch anymore...good night all

**dmitean** · 03-28-12, 11:33 PM

LTA, any thoughts on total in LA tomorrow?
Both teams can light it up I think and while Lakers been scoring 100+ points since Sessions came, they been conceding as mush during that time.
Just feel that both teams should score 100 points there.

**dmitean** · 03-28-12, 11:36 PM

Amazing that PG position in Phoenix scored so far 0 points in 39 minutes going 0 from 9. Nash, Telfair and Price...

**ronnieseah** · 03-28-12, 11:41 PM

i think i saw something like 4 FT misses in a row...wow
why dont they sign this guy.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8chvFPWwOK8

**alamo** · 03-28-12, 11:50 PM

The monkey shot 85%. Bledsoe, Martin and Dudley shot combined 0/8 0% from the stripe tonight.

Give me the monkey everytime

**Love The Action** · 03-29-12, 12:33 AM

Looks like one bad quarter hurt us as they scored 51, 54 and 51 in the 1st, 3rd and 4th, but the devastating 33 point 2nd quarter just dug too big of a hole.

Good luck on Thursday.

NBA 2011-2012 Regular Season 3/29/2012

Play #1

Mavericks/Heat under (189) 1x (Locked)

Two top 10 defenses according to the advanced stats, the strength of which will be facing off against the offensive strength of each team. In the first game of the season, these teams went well over a total set at 190. This game is set lower and I have to agree with the books setting a low total based on the drop in pace that Miami has suffered. I have this game set at 186.5 giving us more than a fg of value. Based on the foregoing, I am rolling with the under for 1x. Good luck.

**dmitean** · 03-29-12, 12:53 AM

I like the bet, though still sitting on the fence with this one, waiting on the refs and Haywood status.
Huge match for both teams. Heat still with revenge on their minds and nothing symbolizes Dallas poor season than the season opener at home against the Heat, where they were blown out.
Good luck!

**JM92** · 03-29-12, 06:18 AM

I'm on the Under 201 already at the other national game. Also like this one a lot. Miami is not only playing slowly, but also their offensive efficiency is down. I think they are trying to play a more "playoff" kind of style since the break. Lets get it.

**dmitean** · 03-29-12, 06:54 AM

Wouldn't go near Under in LAL - Thunder game. It's Over or no bet. Lakers with 6 Over in 6 games since Sessions arrival, lowest score being 198 points.
They play at really high pace right now and even in bad shooting nights (like in Oakland), they still get to the Over.

Yes. Tell me all about how they play at a really high pace now, even though stats over the last 5 games say they are playing at a 90.2 pace, lower than their 90.4 average for the season.

Perception and reality are two different things and if you watch lakers games, you will realize they are starting their offense often with the bigs and are not playing as fast as people thought just because of Sessions.

**dmitean** · 03-29-12, 08:29 AM

Can't agree there and if stats claim otherwise, that just means that they are calculated in a wrong way.
I seen at least three of those games and the pace was really fast. Nothing like I have seen before for the Lakers.

**jas19illini** · 03-29-12, 10:27 AM

The Lakers pace is the same, statistically, as it has been all season. The reason for the recent overs is the Lakers have been top 10 in OEFF their last few games and bottom 10 in DEFF in that same span. They're also 2nd in OFF REB% in their last few games and they've been drawing more fouls recently.

**dallasspartan** · 03-29-12, 12:48 PM

LTA, First off I want to thank you for all the hard work and time you put into posting your plays, I know this is an NBA thread but I really Like Minnesota tonight for college basketball -1.5....I am not sure if you even Cap college basketball, however I hold your overall wisdom in sports in high regard. Any thoughts on the game?<O

Thanks,
Dallasspartan

**GangGreen6** · 03-29-12, 03:15 PM

Thanks for the pick LTA already put it in at 189 also. Two of the top defenses in the league with Miamis subject offense should be in for a low scoring affair.

Also like the Lakers(+1) to win against the Thunder
What does anyone think?

Good luck tonight everyone.

**shimeon40** · 03-29-12, 03:22 PM

I say lakers..the market says okc...if lakers can't win at home with sessions to cool things down then i'm happy to say the lakers group as a team best days are behind them..move over lakers..okc are the new power team...but i think lakers will stand up.Just my opinion.

**alamo** · 03-29-12, 03:29 PM

Do you think the card may be complete for the night LTA or is there anything else that you may be eyeing up
