    Twolves vs Wizards early tomorrow
    What do you guys think of Wizards +2.5 here? As shit as this team is, I feel a win finally coming here for the Wizards. They looked pretty decent on their last game against Knicks, and they should be able to hold their own against a Minnesota team that's not very good on the road.

    Thoughts?

    Wiz scored for me yesterday gaining some good $$ with the high energy and emotion they displayed vs the knicks. Thy had their highest-energy 4th quarter of the season. And it all came from the players-only meeting they had on thursday to energize themselves, which i started a thread on. They covered the game.

    with that said,

    the Kings had a players-only meeting a couple days ago and I hear some very productive practices - the Kings look to be trending upward. They've had 2 days off and are hosting the reeling Magic who seem to be doubting themselves lately.

    will look into the Wiz game further tomorrow as time allows. Just wanted to mention SAC as they seem to be following a similar pattern. I make a lot more money following the poor to mediocre teams and betting on them than the heat's thunders, blazers and bulls of the world. You can make a fortune on these weak teams. They ALL gotta win sometime and they all do eventually. When you can track the right "spots" , you're GOLD

      Exactly, I believe this is that good spot for the Wizards here. I might wait till tomorrow to see where the line moves to get some more info, but highly doubt I can avoid making a play here on WAS. Def. see value here - so if anyone disagrees, please share your thoughts.

        It's a make or miss league. I took 3 dogs to win between +200-+450... all have led in the 4th quarter. And lost by single digits. Happy with those picks and I don't lay much on these... well I'm getting a good price it 'could' happen picks.

        I suck at point spread betting in the NBA, and I don't even understand how anyone can tell me they can make consistent accurate predictions with the lockout right now.

        You gotta think they'll get a win before they go 0-12.

          If you do pick the Wizards, you might as well wait it out. I'm sure the pubic is going to bet MN. You'll probably get it at 3 ... IMO

            Looks like close to 70% is on the Wolves. The wolves covered a couple games early this season, but I can't believe people are betting them as favorite on the road. Wolves were a good team to bet on when they were underdogs, but ever since they've been getting some respect from Vegas they have been pure fade material.

            I think Wiz handle them, especially with no Beasley.

              Speedy88, PR9 and others,

              Do you think one should wait taking Wiz and expect the spread to go up or do you think one should take the +2 that most books have now? Saw some have +2.5 but then the odds were 1.87. Pinnacle has +2.5 at 1.91.

              Thanks

                  If wizards can slow down those turnovers they can beat Minny, Wall vs Rubio will be hopefully exciting to see.

                    Wall is going to own Rubio tomorrow.

                      I also believe Wizards should be strong favourites here, excellent opportunity to get their 1st W. They have good players and it looks like their teamwork is improving too. And Beasley is out for TWolves.

                        Almost makes no sense to me. Wiz are a 2.5 home underdog to a young and bad team who is without one of their best players??? <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden">

                          Exactly. I don't see any reason to bet on TWolves. Therefore, it makes a lot of sense to bet on Wizards

                            but the question is will the line on wiz improve or get worse?

                                  Folks. We have a RLM (reverse line movement) on this game already. Vegas moved it from Orl -6.5 to -6, and this is despite Orlando getting most of the bets all night and morning already

                                  Vegas feels Sac will cover this one, that's why I think they moved the line making orlando a better bargain for people to continue betting more on Orl's side. Wizards had a players only meeting and they covered the same spread of being 6-point underdogs against the knicks playing with high energy and emotion.

                                  Sacramento is feeling very good about themselves, and as mentioned, they had some very productive practices. They will come out with high emotion and energy for this game, and we all know what effect that can have in a game at home.

                                  Moreover, right after the coaching change they had a 21 point comeback in their last game with 3 player season highs to boot. Thorton 27 points, Evans 10 boards and CRY BABY COUSINS also had a season high with 15 rebounds.

                                  Westphal benched Demarcus on 2 occasions and after Keith Smarts first game as the Kings coach. I can quote Cousins as saying """I FELT FREE OUT THERE, IT JUST FELT GOOD TO BE ON THE COURT"

                                          beasley is out for the game, beasley is one of the person who keeps the wolves from winning. the ball will be more in the hands of love/barea or rubio, also washington is still one of the worst drb teams, love will have monster game. you get the wolves at a very good price only favoured by 2.5 pts

                                            youre an idiot if you bet on the wolves.

                                            even the worst team has to get a win sometime, and with min shooting 25%, the wizards take this one at home for their first W

                                              I dont know about that - just based on this first half u can clearly tell Minn is looking good, even without Beasley. I do believe in the whole 'due to win' theory,' but at the end of the day, a shitty team has no wins for a reason. Anyway, Wizards are gonna need to step up big time or I dont see anyway Minn dosent win this by double digits.

                                                  Wish I had watched the Wiz/Knicks game to see just how in the world Wizards kept that close and even built a huge lead against them - And cant even touch this Injury-filled Minnesota team. This just shows, shouldnt bet on teams on losing streak - wait for them to get their first win. Because its hard to predict when a 'bad streak' ends.

                                                  Anyway...still 2nd half left, we can pray for a miracle =)

                                                        as i implied last night, Sac +7 was the better play for an underdog today.

                                                        they look rejuvenated a bit. they're trending upward. Also like the fact that they're the #1 offensive rebounding team in the league to matchup with howard.

                                                        and of course, The Magic have lost 12 of of their last 16 trips to Sacramento. Totally stayed away from the wiz game today and consider myself ahead on the 5 unit cover they got for me vs the knicks. That game today scared me a bit

                                                          I want already in the end of second quarter congratulate all minnesota backers for the win today.

                                                          I am so angry with myself right now for having taking washington today. The worst team I have ever seen in nba.

                                                          I never thought a team could play this bad. They have already lost this game. Two offensive fauls after each other from washington. What a joke. How on earth could I read the threads here and believe the people cheering for taking washington today. My misstake and stupidity.

                                                          34-48 after first half.

                                                          So congratulations all Minnesota backers!

                                                          This is exactly how I feel

                                                            Gonna try and recover this loss with SAC +7 then...even if that loses, I hope its not as painful as this WAS b/s.

Minny is responding right back and not letting them. So the bottom line is, this IS the potential of this WAS team, and even if they give it their all, they will come short.
