It seemed likely that he was not playing when the line started inflating. Greek had DAL -3 half an hour before I bought the Suns. I like them even without Nash.

Thx! GL man i'll be at the LAC/OKC game rooting for Durantula and the Thunder.

The Spurs with 10 made 3s in the game... The Mavs with 10 made 3s in the FIRST HALF... The Suns are done. Memphis is not the team they were last year. They just seem to get tired a lot faster this season.

Agreed they aren't the same as they were last year. They are a completely team with Randolph. And their bench isn't what it was last year. They really miss Darrell Arthur, he was huge for them last year.

I call bullshit on this line movement...

**suicidekings** · 01-30-12, 11:45 PM

Let's just call this Thunder game a loss now, after how the Clippers closed out the 1H... Of the 4 games I bet today, the four opponents have combined for 37 made 3s in 3.5 games... Unreal.

**dlunc3** · 01-30-12, 11:56 PM

that last two minutes was absolutely disgusting... we had cut it to 6 and durrant was at the line to cut it to 5... then they promptly hit 4 threes to end the half in about an minutes time... such an absolute joke

I have a 300-1 parlay with okc as the last leg... my other legs didnt end until after this game started so couldnt hedge. Was hoping for a live hedge opportunity or a half time hedge... instead they are down 18!! when was the last time okc was down 18 at half honestly?? this happening after the sixers circus earlier makes you wanna go out and smash something. Made 700 tonight yet instead of being happy I wanna break my tv... Wish I woulda just lost a grand and went to sleep.

sorry for venting and clogging you thread.. tomorrow will be a new day

Just one of those games... The Thunder are actually playing a pretty good game overall, but the Clippers are just off the charts good right now.

Last night was really bad, losing with the Grizzlies, Thunder, Blazers, and Suns. Tonight the Grizzlies are playing a pathetic game again.

I'm pretty sure what's happening is that Gasol has played too many minutes this season and his body is worn out. The Grizz are seriously depleted in big men right now, basically with only Haddadi to backup Gasol. Without that solid rebounding/defensive presence inside, the Grizz are getting eaten alive in the paint, and the stress of giving up those easy baskets is messing up the focus of the team as a whole on the offensive end. I predict Gasol ends up on the DL at some point if he doesn't get more rest asap.

SAC/GSW Over 197.5 (-108) x1.5

I want to play the Kings here, as I don't think the Warriors deserve to be a -7 favourite. However I'm sticking with the Over, following LTA.

**alamo** · 01-31-12, 10:33 PM

There's life for the Grizz. They deserve this one with this plucky fightback. Lets get it in OT guys

**suicidekings** · 01-31-12, 10:47 PM

NBA TV is such a terrible product... The commentators are awful, the replays are bad if they show them at all, and it just comes off as so bush-league... Way to go, NBA.

**alamo** · 01-31-12, 10:56 PM

You deserved that one SK. Delighted it was a THREE ball for the Grizz that was the difference.

On a side note what a play by Rudy Gay (with the block) and Gasol (to keep it inbounds) when they were down 4 in ot. Had Denver made that shot it was cakes.

One of the best plays ive seen this year and definitely the best defensive play.

Yeah, that was a huge series from Gay/Gasol, along with the offensive rebounds leading to the Mayo 3 pointer earlier (That felt great after yesterday). The question is, was that frustration boiling to the surface and resulting in a big effort, or have they turned the corner on their recent poor play?

i think those were the commentators from memphis..whenever there are games on NBA TV they do that..its not like TNT or ESPN that have their own...When i used to get the league pass i used to see just how bad some of the commentators are for most of the teams..i really appreciate how good the warriors guys are

**alamo** · 01-31-12, 11:22 PM

I have to say I kinda enjoy the totally biased commentary (which is wrong on my part really) when Im watching a team that im on that night. It kinda comforts me in the fact that if there's a bad call against my team and their saying it too

. I agree that I think there has to be a reason we weren't seeing those replays cos of NBA.TV

That actually makes a lot of sense. I guess it works out well economically for them, but I haven't been impressed with the ones I've heard.

Depends on which team you're on... I find more often than not, I'm on the road team so it can be very annoying. In particular, the Bulls local commentators and the Raptors crew REALLY bother me with their unbelievably biased announcing. When you have announcers that ALWAYS take the home team's side, even on plays that are obviously not in their favour, it's pretty crappy.

I feel like if the Thunder weren't coming off such a brutal loss, the line would be more like Mavs -3 right now. The option to play the Mavs here at pk against a team they know extremely well is great value. The Thunder are also on game 2 of an 8 in 12 stretch that is one of the toughest series of games that any team faces all season. The Mavs aren't a team that the Thunder can just bounce back against. I didn't actually look at the trend, but that makes me like it even more.
