Take Bucks 1H

[rapidfire5]

Ride the Bucks in the 1H. Spread is -4 for 1H

Pistons one of the worst team in starting out a ball game.
Last 6 game Pistons played, they were never up in the 1st half.

These include scores of the following:
Det vs Orl - 44/46
Det vs Chi- 35/51
Det vs Sixer - 34/43
Det vs NY 42/64
Det vs Chi - 34/43
Det vs Dal- 38/52

As you can see, only 1 score was close and all the other were blowouts.
Bucks are at home coming off a win vs SA and should look to roll in this game. Bogut is back as well.

Thoughts?

Detroit always play Bucks tough, they covered both games in Milw last year losing by 2 and blowing them out in another. They have split in milwaukee 8 of the past 10 seasons, covering more often than not.

For this game: Referee Tony Brown

Detroit ATS with the last 10 when Brown officiating equals 8-2. Perfect 8 0 the last 8 games.

Detroit covering the last 8 games Tony Brown officiating them.

7 out of 8 straight up DET WINS.

DET without stuckey and nueva tonight. Knight will see more time. Milw playing much better at home than road.

tough call

Milw receiving the 2nd most bet% of any team playing tonight, yet the spread hasn't moved an inch since the -8 opening..

[rapidfire5]

good point and i didn't realize those overwhelming stats on Tony Brown refing Pistons game. Thanks

This is where I see Bucks turning it around though. They have to starting winning games especially against inferior opponents at home

[ksnooksk]

I like the Pistons. Bucks win by 5.

[PR9]

This game is messing with my head today

[Yezzir]

I know Pistons are absolute garbage.. but they're 8-3 in the last 11 on the road to Bucks. Spread wise though, they're an awful 0-4 ATS on the road this year.

Pistons are worse in 2nd half than first, been that way for years, I've cleaned up on taking 2nd half unders on their team totals for years.

[PR9]

fukk it I'm placing 3 units on DET.

I like what Will Bynum showed in Det's last game scoring 20 pts in just as many minutes on 50% shooting. The world is betting on Milw and the line has yet to move.

If I see a line mvmt change right before game time (indicating milw will cover) I may change my mind and go the other way. But that's the only thing stopping me right now.

I know the season is young but the bucks are just as bad in the second half

pistons two players r injured..

Does anybody else find it weird that the NBA is placing refs that HEAVILY favor Detroit for tonight's game, on the same day news breaking on every site that Detroit's attendance has been the worst it's been in many years (its blasting everywhere from a Detroit news column)

[rapidfire5]

you maybe over thinking it too much

[PR9]

The NBA absolutely hates and despises low attendance stories. Especially record low ones.


That, I do know for a fact. And it has shown in game results many MANY times in the past. Too much and too often to mention.


That much is, indeed, simple

ps- do you think that ridiculously low line of Indy -2.5 earlier in the season was just a coincidence? When 95% were on indy , and when indy was 4-1 vs a winless detroit getting blown out in every game up until that point ?

[B1AZE]

I don't think the Bucks should be -8 over anyone.

[Gambler#1]

In Bet365 the line jump up to 8.5 in the last 60 min..

[PR9]

^^ the line moving to -8.5 is not very good news for Detroit backers. At least, generally that is the case.

[ksnooksk]

Yeah, I'm all over the Bucks now. Thinking about putting some units on the 1h also.

[PR9]

Bucks are the 4th best 1st half team in the league.

And the Bucks are the 3rd worst 2nd half team in the league.

[B1AZE]

1H has been juiced all day.

IMO Detroit looks better tomorrow against Bobcats.

I think you may be right.

Cats tomorrow does look better from a few angles. When everyone was on the Wiz vs the T-wolves the other day, thinking that was for sure going to be their first win. I totally laid off,, and thought Toronto in their next game was a better bet.. even though I had 5 units on the Wiz vs the knicks in the game before minny.

A lot of the time it does work out that way, as you're thinking.

[B1AZE]

Say Detroit gets hammered tonight and then u have B2B tomorrow and nobody will be on board; yet you have a much smaller number against Charlotte.....reminds me of Kings / Philly the other night, but Kings / Toronto the next night ended up being the better play.

Speaking of attendance, that Milwaukee arena is empty
