[UndersSuck]

A question to the Mafia-

The Magic have been unstoppable for most of the season and have put plenty of $$$ in many of our pockets. It is my opinion that the loss of Jameer Nelson is going to be a HUGE loss for them. He's averaging nearly 17 ppg with 5.4 apg. Considering JJ Reddick may be the guy that steps in and takes his place, Nelson's effective 3pt shooting may not be lost.

But the Magic have been a no-brainer up til now. Now I have to think twice. Certainly not against the Clippers tonight, but as the season goes on.

Can someone please convince me that this wont be a problem and that the Magicians will continue to be a covering machine.

[Dexter]

CK,

You think they could of made a mistake by giving Memphis a ML then noticed it... I'm sure public would of jumped all over the ML.

thats interesting - both vcu and memphis are road favs of about 9/16.5......hmmmm - why a first half ml on memphis?

[Dexter]

undersuck - i myself am taking a 3 game sample size to see what the magic look like w/o jameer.

[solobass]

yikes, 97% of public money on BC, that is enough to scare me away.

[ANDYW15]

As copied from yesterday's thread, plays for today,

GSW+3

favs all the way then, call me a square whatever

Lakeshow -8 - Raps are awful at home, the Lakers are really not what they need right now, even with the lookahead to Boston, the Lakes can still take this by 9
Cavs -5.5 - LBJ in his future home perhaps?!? will be hyped for this one
Magic -13.5 - they are playing the Clippers, no further explanation needed.

NCAA

Va Commonwealth -9 1H
Tulsa -1.5

I also have a bet on CSKA Moscow in the Euroleague B'ball -15.5 for the game after reading a good tip two mins before the off.

orlando is 4-1 SU in games this year without jameer nelson and the turk will handle the point at times, giving greater vision over the perimeter D for inlet passes into the post.

I think it will affect them alot in the long run. I am playing them tonight as it is the Clippers and until the Clips turn it around I will fade them everytime especially against this Magic team even without Nelson. I suggest keeping a watching brief for a couple of games when they play stronger opposition and reassess before going heavy.

I'm off them...and have been since they were drilled by Bos @ home...final score was not indicative....they may cover tonight..but without me...

[shoebox]

I am sold on OK city tonight. Durantuals here we come!!


Leaning clippers, knicks, minnesota

[schaapattack]

VC outscored NC-Wilmington 49-25 at home on January 5th in the 1st half. Not sure why this would be any different on the road. Locked in VC -9 1st half (CK play)

[BmoreBucco]

Alright, with input from the mafia, I have booked the following for tonight:

Notre Dame -2 ( Bought hook)
VCU 1h -9

4-team 1st half parlay:
VCU -9
Memphis -9
UAB -8
Northeastern -4.5

Gonna look at one prop for the day and I think Dex has sold me on the Warriors. Gonna wait that line out a bit though.

Solo..I see you like the Lakers...any lean on the over??
Lakers are averaging over 110 the last 5 games...Tor can score and the Lakers D w/o Bynum....I see a nice over piece...

[schaapattack]

CK

VC just hit -9.5 first half ..Is it now a bonified play?

[Bezerk15]

hey fellas, check my 1st thread...I've been hacking at it all morning...I appreciate any criticism and analysis you all can provide...

I'm on Ck's SP (as always)
Dex's Warriors play (thank you for the early info on Denver last night - hit 1Q, 1H, and game - I got game at -6 and by game time it was -13)

Can't go near that BC/UVA game - UVA is just wacky - no idea what the hell is going on in Charlottesville anymore. They just scare me.

My plays:
VCU 1h
VCU -16
William & Mary 1h +4.5

Golden State +4
Magic -7 1h

[solobass]

i agree wholeheartedly, i am going to watch for movement on this line. i think both teams get up and down, and with bynum out the lakers average possession per game numbers will increase giving a temporary value to overs especially against a flaky toronto team on a b2b.

[solobass]

looking ahead, tomorrow and saturday look to be very very very profitable days......

[shoebox]

Upset alert knicks over cavs. Plus, it has those shady 5.5 point spreads, call me crazy cause I can be!
I dont even post CK's plays cause theres no need I already follow.

[repski]

Golden State stats to support
"The Warriors have played the Suns very tough at home, covering nine of the last 14 meetings and winning the last three in a row straight up. The Warriors have gone 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 overall home games as well."

one more thing to add
7 of 8 games in this series have gone OVER THE TOTAL over the last 3 seasons

The Cavs strike me as a team who enjoy blowing people off the court and feed off it, look at the avg PPG they beat oppo by . They are making the most of the success they are having and maybe unlike the Celtics, who due to last seasons success, ease off the pedal a little in some games which leads to back door covers. What better motivation is there for Lebron tonight to run the show in what could be his future home. The cavs blew toronto away in the first quarter, eased off, then just blew them back off the court again in the fourth. I think they are trying to make a statement in every game they play, LBJ certainly is.

Its ok andy im fully aware of this, I knew id be on my own. 5.5 and a stiff line, leads to the dog.

Im still pissed that Kerr AKA Matt Millen has torn apart a quality candidate for the NBA championship. They need to do some house cleaning for the suits. They used to be so exciting to watch. All that talent, there the chargers of the NBA.

[peterpan19]

ok here we go with my 1st quarter plays for today:
Magic -4
Nets +0.5
Cavs -1.5
Rockets -1.5

GL

[repski]

I've been analyzing this game....and I come to the over...

draw a line thru Houstons last 2 games...one against UTEP where their #1 scorer was suspended and Memphis(who plays really good D...held Tenn to 50's) and they average 84 their last 5 games against repectable competition..ie Ariz.90,UTEP 1st time 94...

UCF averaging over 77 pts in their last 5 and more than that @ home..Jermaine Taylor scoring 24/game.....over piece..

Hey Peter.....are you the one that put up that interesting graph yesterday on 1Qs?? I was curious to find out how that would have worked out, without me having to go back and look it up.

[peterpan19]

thelemondropkid

nope wasnt me
but was there an interesting graph yesterday ? cant remember it myself

[TheLemonDropKid]

thelemondropkid

nope wasnt me
but was there an interesting graph yesterday ? cant remember it myself

Yeah......I remember being curious about it because I always thought money could be made on dominant teams that come out the gate runnin-n-gunnin in the 1st Q and then play a game of cat-n-mouse for the rest of the game. I will look at yesterday's thread and see if I can find it.
