Toronto's not that bad either. I guess if back to back on the road is worth 2.5 points, then Toronto may be -1 or so in a normal situation but I'm still confused.
1) Toronto has won 3 of their last 4 games and playing well overall. Fans here are actually happy and see progress.
2) they open as 1.5 pt underdogs to the winless 0-8 Wiz ??
3) Not only have they opened as underdogs, but Toronto was getting 80% of the bets placed a few hours ago.. which leads me to
4) We already have a RLM. The line has moved in the opposite direction and Toronto is now a full 2 point underdog
5) Not only do we have a fishy opening line, and not only do we have a RLM to deal with, but they are ALSO juicing WASH to make toronto look even more appealing... like a nice juicy wet steak to the average casual joe-schmoe nba fan
need i say more ?

Wizards seem like a good choice but... they're just so collectively dumb and bad at basketball I don't know if I can do it.

Two facts about the Wiz:
1. Their last game was as bad as I as I've seen an NBA team play.
2.

1. Did you watch any of Detroit's games before they beat Indiana and Orlando (and convincingly I might add) back-to-back ?

Obviously the Wizards win here. Tomorrow is shaping up to be a nice card with some logical choices. This is one of them.

Tor seem to be a good choice, despite a b2b, which they had cane the Knicks in this same situation a fortnight ago. People keep saying the
wash will win at some point, well look at Cleveland last year, they had won finally but after 23 tried or something. Every year we will have a team in this same drought, the Nets was also in 2009 i think.

Always best to bet a winless favored team. This way the real gambling comes into play, it's exhilarating to say the least.

Everything points to Toronto side..
- They're playing pretty well lately
- They get two extra points
- Washington looks like a college team, they fell apart against Minnesota two days ago and thay 8-0
So a reasonable person will put his money on Toronto...
But gambling is not for reasonable people ...probably most of the people are going to play on Toronto..(Maybe not the people in this thread)
But i think its better to go whith the crooked bookmakers and play on the Wizzardz...
But I admit, it's very scary to put money on this bunch of pussys...

Did you actually watch the games against NJ and the Sixers? Raptors were attrocious. I wouldn't call them playing well lately at all. Even yesterday, they gave plenty of chances to the wolves for the win. Luckily Kevin Love had a bad game. Raptors are a young team with a limited offence. Only Bargnani is currently carrying the scoring load. They are very unpredictable at this moment. I would pass on this game.

Only stupid assholes who don't watch alot of NBA will put their money on the Wizards today.
Why would you bet on a team with 0 wins, to win their next game?
For ***** sake, let them win a damn game before you bet them.
Fade Wizards till they win. Trust me.

No man, I did not see their games, but if you compare them to Washington, three victories in the last five games it's pretty well, Toronto is not a team that you expect from her to play amazing basketball..so it's should enough.

How bad Washington be, they still need to win some games in this season, so you have to see when there is a good opportunity, this time it seemed possible..
No one is obligated to bet on this game, but if choose sides, it is better to take the side of the bookmakers,because in the end , they are the big winners..

No offence but making statements without even having seen a team play for me comes across as very simple minded thinking

Of course I would not hurt,but let me tell you something, I do not have time to watch all the games, and I believe also you do not watch them all. to make money in NBA you do not have to be 24 / 7 in home watching the games,
Weak team like Toronto is not always able to get three wins in five games, so for now they are playing pretty well,No need to be Einstein to know that,sometimes we do not need to complicate things, and the simplest choice is emerging as the best choice...so BOL man,

If Wiz want a new HC, they mail it in. If they like Flip and the job he's been doing they play hard... I tend to believe the former. This is a great spot for Washington however, as the Raps left it all on the court last night.... They played their asses off and spent a ton of energy trying to play defense for the first year since the franchises inception. Washington is still Washington and these new look Craptors are actually looking like a cohesive unit.
Better games to look at imho but I know what the line is telling us.
