    I think the books want us to forget about Spurs@Blazers
    The game isn't listed in SBR Odds, it isn't listed at Vegas Insider, it isn't listed at the books I've checked.

    I've never seen this before. If there's no overnight line the game is always listed with a blank line.

    I think the books want us to forget about Spurs@Blazers because:

    Without Duncan the game will not be competitive. The Spurs beat the Blazers at home but this game will be pay back time and the Blazers will not take the Spurs lightly.

    Portland will beat the Spurs without Duncan. I don't predict exact winning margins in the NBA so I can't guarantee a cover. Mark it down now.

    I've got a serious question. Does anyone remember seeing this before?

    No Duncan = Blazers win.

      What is so strange about a game having no overnight line?

                It's listed at bookmaker now, it wasn't earlier. It looks like vegas insider forgot to list it, who knows.

                  Bookmaker/Cris does. It's up with a blank line now (it wasn't earlier).

                  I think seeing it unlisted at vegasinsider freaked me out. I check that site everyday and I've never seen that before.

                      Did you watch them against the Cavs? The Blazers are much better at home than the Cavs are on the road. I don't see a competitive game here, it should be pay back time for last week's loss in San Antonio.

                      Blazers -8 ML: -400

                        I have seen SBR Odds and sportsbooks not list games with no line many, many times.

                          I've never seen it happen before at SBR Odds, sorry.

                          I've never seen it happen at vegas insider before either and I've been using that site for years. It doesn't matter, no one could cause me to forget about this game. I've had it circled since I watched the Cavs kill the Spurs.

                            Yeah, it happens all the time lately on SBR Odds. No big deal. BTW, the line should be Portland -1ish, IMO, if Duncan plays.

                                If Duncan plays I'll steer clear of this game. If he's out then it's Blazers ML for me.

                                  it wasn't up because of Duncan. Not that unusual.

                                        i've seen it happen on sbrlines and at sportsbooks MANY times. you can tell though if there is a jump in rotation numbers.

                                        but i've NEVER seen that happen on vegas insider (except i think with the NCAAF all star game). Did Covers have the game listed or was it non existent too?
