Does Dallas -3.5 make sense to you?

NFL49ers · 04-13-12, 09:19 PM

I know doesn't make sense... It opened at -2. I won't be surprise if Portland cover.

No Kidd

I'm on DAL -2. Plenty of lines looked weird that hit today. Just look at ATL -1.5 against a Howardless Magic. DAL needs this one because after this they play in LAL and in UTA.

POR has nobody to stop Dirk, and if the game slows down, I don't see how they can score efficiently enough to keep up with the Mavs in the halfcourt. Aldridge was their halfcourt offense.

Revenge spot too for DAL after losing a few weeks ago in OT to POR.

Yup, this is a very ridiculous line. How do books expect Portland to win tonight or keep within 4. Mavs should be focused tonight with the revenge angle and head to the playoffs on a good note. And Blazers are completely outmatched against Mavs tonight, should be an easy one for Dallas.

But srsly, who knows. We already saw a Raptors team with D-League starters win outright against a Celtics team. So I won't be completely surprised if this Portland team can cover or win outright here.

Agreed, I don't see the angle to take POR. Not a good idea to try to be sharp here. Blazers have always played DAL close, but that's because Aldridge always plays great against his hometown team.

Pinny move to -4 late after heavily juicing -3.5, not too sure what to make of that

This game will go down to the wire..

No coincidences · 04-13-12, 09:42 PM

I almost teased the two lines together.

Seriously.

DAL +0.5/POR +8.5

coitus_maximus · 04-13-12, 09:45 PM

Dont think too much Dallas rolls

bleek88 · 04-13-12, 09:53 PM

I want to see Dallas play 4Quarters hard, they dont, thats why this game will be semi close

MarkTX · 04-13-12, 10:10 PM

thinking of grabbing Port +11.5 here live...think Dallas wins but this will be closer than teh current score indicates...

Gamble32jn · 04-13-12, 10:17 PM

Looks like Dallas has finally got out of that slump and rolling here of lately

MarkTX · 04-13-12, 10:21 PM

Yeah Dallas destroys Portland here - laying off the live bets. This is a one sided ROMP!!
