Pretty horrid night last night, so we'll see if fading is the right call after tonight.
2U - Miami -3 - After embarassing themselves last night, they have to be looking to take their aggression out on someone. Why not a team you've beat 3 times already this season? A loss to Indiana tonight would just add insult to...insult.
2U - Detroit -1.5 - Wizards on a b2b with Nene questionable with back problems? Washington has only covered in 3 of their last 12 home games.
1U - Boston -6.5 - Boston on a b2b is certainly bad, but there's no better team to play in that situation than the Bobcats. Just can't put faith in the worst team in the league.
1U - New Jersey -1.5 - New Jersey at home isn't great, but their record is equally crappy to Utah's road record. Only difference is Utah is coming off the first 4OT game in 15 years where their big players played over 48 minutes a piece. Flying across the country after that has to bog them down in some fashion, allowing Humphries to manage things down low.
1U - Milwaukee +6 - Tough call on this one as both the Bucks and Knicks have been animals ATS lately. The edge to Bucks is due to their 3 previous wins against the Knicks this season, the opportunity at playoff contention, and the points.
Totals (all 1U)
Milwaukee +3 1H
Milwaukee/New York O208
Denver/Chicago O199
LA Clippers/New Orleans O181.5
Also considering looking at a unit on Toronto +6. They seem to play well in "revenge" games, turning a blowout loss to New York on the road into a blowout win at home and turning a blowout loss to Chicago at home into an OT game on the road. Last time out they lost to Orlando at home by 4, so I'm thinking the 6 points looks solid.
