    Pistons +12.5
    Anyone know why this line opened at PHI -14 and is now at PHI -12.5? Either way I like the Pistons here. They have actually been playing some competitive basketball and covering spreads lately. Nearly beat Miami the other night, and should have beaten the Hawks last night.

    You'd be a brave man to bet against Philly at home but revenge angle as well as backdoor cover a possibility which it has been the last couple of sixers games. Fwiw Philly home 9-2 ats, Detroit away 2-7 which is why it's Philly or no play for me.

      I started a thread and took them as well at +13. Hawes is out this game right? Monroe should have a good game

        Still trying to figure out the line movement. If it is not due to injury, than the play is on Detroit. Lines just don't move 1.5 points for no reason when 70% was already on Phili. Looks like we have some RLM.

          I have the same feeling for the Lakers bucks game. About 70 on the lakers and it dropped to 4.5 but it did go back up to 5. Well have to see how it goes closer to tip

            I'm actually getting MIL at +5.5 right now. I'm taking MIL. LAL has no business being 5 point favorites on the road this year. Not having Bogut will hurt because he could have slowed down Bynum, but I think Jennings will cause big problems for the LAL defense.

              I'm on MIL as well. The Lakers schedule so far has been busy (as all teams have you can say). They have finally had a couple days off which scares me coming into this game. I think they gained a lot of confidence against the Clippers. I don't see the lakers losing but I hope it's a close game. If Jennings is off tonight we are done.

                Speedy, you should start your own thread for picks to keep track. Altho I think you put a bit TOO much emphasis on finding RLM, you're defn one of the better / more civilized dudes on this forum.

                    I would, but it's not for me. I'd rather just drop in on threads from time to time and look at games. Season long threads ain't for me.

                            Taking the Sixers -12 (-115)... Live close to Philadelphia & have watched every game. They bascially had the day off yesterday - Detroit is tired after the last two games

                                    Hawes playing scares me. They tore up Detroit last time but I'm still taking the Pistons here. Legoooo

                                      I'm still sticking with the Pistons here. Haven't locked it in yet, but planning on locking it in soon.

                                        I'm hoping the Sixes over look the Pistons. Philly has played a TON of horrible teams. I feel like they are getting bored and hope they slip up a little like they did against New Jersey.

                                          Incorrect info on Hawes. Spencer Hawes is OUT for tonights game (rotoworld).

                                            agreed, speedy is definitely one of the cooler dudes here, and is focused on getting better and making smart plays. I agree w/ the comment about line movement though, if all it was was looking for rlm, it wouldn't be gambling, but i tend to like keeping an eye myself.
                                            as for tonight's game, just worried about the mental make-up of this det team after that loss, and now having to go on the road the next night. loved detroit's spot last night.
