Wow, That Line Sure Did Jump

**zizoudane10** · 04-09-12, 04:54 PM

And no ML on pinnacle right now?

**Speedy88** · 04-09-12, 04:57 PM

Trying to decide whether I should grab it now or wait. I think right now the line is assuming all 3 of them are out. Last thing I want to do is take UTA -2.5 with the big 3 playing. However, I could see it jump up another half point or so once all 3 are announced.

**mcwmiamisc** · 04-09-12, 05:13 PM

Speedy you seem like the smartest guy on here. I always watch your posts and you seem to be on the right side consistantly. What Are your picks today?

UTAH
PHX

Any others??

**MarkTX** · 04-09-12, 05:30 PM

If the big 3 are out Jazz -2.5 is easy money. I loaded up and feeling good about it....although yeah I'd be walking on air if I had grabbed them last night at +3.5

Haha you must only pay attention to my winners! I no longer like PHX that much, just seems too square. I'm rolling with Memphis -4 as my main play. Also going to play UTA once I can figure out who is and isn't playing for SA. Leaning Milwaukee at the moment.

**TehSharp** · 04-09-12, 05:36 PM

Jazz ML +100!

**Speedy88** · 04-09-12, 05:37 PM

If anyone has any news on the Spurs, please post it here. Thanks.

**CallMeChip** · 04-09-12, 06:04 PM

I think Manu is out, but I doubt Big 3 will all be rested and I'm sure Blair will play. Sounds fishy to me, I see Spurs covering anyway. Millsap won't play well and Miles is not full strength.

Some guy for the Jazz just reported that he didn't see Manu, Parker or Duncan get off the team bus at the arena

**CHAZ** · 04-09-12, 06:13 PM

Spurs are deep. I wouldn't even be surprised if they still pulled it off.

I don't see it happening. Spurs shorthanded on a b2b in Salt Lake will be tough. Last time I remember all 3 took the night off was in Portland, and the Spurs were down by 30 for most of that game.

Big game for UTA. They cant afford to lose to a team at home who is w/o their 3 best players. This is also a good test for them because there is a decent chance they may face SA in the first round of the playoffs. A bit similar to NY/CHI yesterday.

**Les_Nuts** · 04-09-12, 06:16 PM

Up to 3.5, so glad I got them at+3 and added more at -1.5

**WiseGrumpy** · 04-09-12, 06:18 PM

That is insane. Did anyone get it at +3.5?!

this game has been removed by a couple of books in Australia. managed to get -2.5 Utah but I reckon that line will move even more with the big 3 out

**Speedy88** · 04-09-12, 06:21 PM

got it at 2.5. When your coach tells your team that they are sitting out their 3 best players, he is pretty much waiving the white flag.

Wouldve been a perfect opportunity to middle with Utah last night and SA today...

Books worst nightmare.

**The Giant** · 04-09-12, 06:29 PM

I've been mad at myself all day for this, Speedy. I thought Pop might give his guys a rest, and saw the +3.5 last night, but didn't take it.

It's probably still a nice bet, but not quite as good.

No sign of Duncan, Parker, Ginobili yet. Both Spurs busses have emptied out.

**Les_Nuts** · 04-09-12, 06:31 PM

I think Utah blows them out - providing the oldies don't turn up in a late bus lol

A 2nd bus is apparently on the way:

I didn't know if the public would still be going on the big name team though...at least now I have the experience and knowledge to capitalize on something like this next time.

**Roadtrip635** · 04-09-12, 06:38 PM

This time of year, it really is hard to predict what Coach Pop will do. I'm fairly certain Blair and Jackson will play since they sat out yesterday, Manu will probably sit out, but beyond that it's anyone's guess. Coach Pop doesn't usually reveal his lineup until about an hour or less before tip-off. The line looks tempting, but the Spurs are deep enough to pull it out even with the big three out. Even if the big three do play, how much playing time will they get? This game could go either way, but think I'm just staying away. GL to those making a play.

**hustlehard617** · 04-09-12, 06:42 PM

Just announced on NBA TV big 3 are sitting out tonight

**hawley** · 04-09-12, 06:46 PM

Wonder if this becomes a real shootout like the Blazers / Spurs game did when they rested the big 3

**The Giant** · 04-09-12, 06:46 PM

Apparently San Antonio has no nostalgia for long winning streaks, because this is exactly what they did when they had their earlier winning streak and sat everyone in Portland.

**Frisco** · 04-09-12, 06:49 PM

Lol if Spurs win this game ppl are going to be fukked

**Roadtrip635** · 04-09-12, 06:51 PM

Yep local San Antonio news just now confirmed Live NO Tim, NO Parker and NO Manu tonight!
