Celts ML, Heat ML, Pittsburgh Panthers ML.


Somebody loses SU.

[cleaveland]

I think it's clear bookmakers expect the Heat to win, they're -145 at Chicago and they're without Miller and that didn't affect the line at all. The Raptors shot 58% against the Bulls, if the Bulls couldn't stop the Raptors they won't be able to stop the Heat, imho.

[LolsMcwinsey]

I think it is square to think the heat may be the team that loses SU

If you think Mike Miller is affecting spreads then you havent bet a lot of basketball games.

Miami have only been Dogs once this whole season. Lakers -3.5 on Christmas day.
They have been favored over the Celtics twice on the road. I think Heat being favs is nothing new.

[HoulihansTX]

Raptors shooting 58% is one game. If they played 20 times, they would not shoot that percentage.

Lol i love how people are going to look at that raptors game and put any real value in it. Bulls were looking ahead to tonight. They are one of the premier defensive teams in the league, you can be sure that they will lock down on D tonight

[Jakesteen]

Numbers speaks for themselves so I don't think Chicago were looking AHEAD into tonight's game. These are professional athletes and a top playoff contender team, not to mention they are seeded #3 in the Eastern Conference behind Boston and Miami for only 3 games. Every game is as much needed as for every team in the league. So the look ahead angle could be thrown out in the window in the second half of the season. Just look at the numbers below and ask yourself again, were they looking ahead to this game against the Heat?

Boozer 33 minutes 24 points (19.4 PPG)
Deng 42 minutes 19 points (17.7 PPG)
Rose 38 minutes 32 points (25 PPG)

Miami is also a premier defensive team, so you think Under is a good bet?

[LolsMcwinsey]

bulls are the square play here. everyone remembers the spurs game

[Snowball]

if one of them loses it will be Miami.
Bulls are up for this game.
Noah played well. sloppy finish last night, looking ahead, playing to the competition who had their best night of the season..
but would i bet them ? no.

Pitt is rock solid, WV doesn't have the tools in the box to win at Pitt.
Boston also.. i see them forcing a lot of Denver turnovers.

[TrapperDapper]

Pitt won't lose to WVU. Pitt just doesn't lose at home. Boston could lose, but look for Wilson Chandler to start bricking shots and upsetting the Nuggets so they self destruct after having a 5-6 point lead. The heat are probably the most likely because of Chicago coming off a loss last night, plus Chicago defends and has dominant players at Miami's weak spots.

[HoulihansTX]

Celts ML, Heat ML, Pittsburgh Panthers ML. Somebody loses SU.

1-2. Wont cut it, pimpin.
